The room was cozy and beautiful. We love it! However, we had a disaster. The bathtub leaked and the water ran into the kitchen. We were shocked and had to dry the place. The staff were helpful. They came to check and relocated us to another room. The repair was done in a short time and we decided to stay in the same room. What a memorable Christmas!

Room was very good. But the location and the lack of reception area, not even a chair with virtual reception help, is not for seniors or people with mobility issues who don't drive

Disliked: Amenities
Reception was very nice and accommodating however, room is horrible. Awkward floor plan of room. TV facing away from bed. Only one side table by bed, garbage next to tiny closet not by kitchen. Only 3 towels various sizes. Bathroom size is sand size as bedroom. No need of large bathroom, could’ve been built for living room. Two wooden chair was old and uncomfortable. Looks worn out from second hand store. Very very disappointing for over $100-$200 per night for holidays.

The room and the amenities were great. I did have problems with my door code that was very frustrating since I had an evening stuck outside for 10 minutes until a staff came. Customer service was friendly and quick to respond. The room was nice I’d say the only bad parts were the shower door kind of awkwardly opened to make it hard to get out onto the towel & no nightstands.

Room was decent. Location was good (we drove most places, but it seemed that it should have been walkable). I'm old school and didn't like the lack of reception area - we arrived early but there was really no place to store our luggage and the key pad outside was temperamental.

Very comfortable bed. Easy parking. Clean. Good range and quality of kitchen equipment. Glass door to toilet by bed meant no privacy - not pleasant for either of the room occupants. Nowhere to hang wet coats. Lack of light in kichen area. Well stocked storage cupboard for paper towels, etc, on ground floor, but not publicised.

Clean room! Even though they don't have a front desk, everything we wanted was responded to immediately through email. We asked for extra pillows and they were there when we got back. They are veey attentive and there are no lines to wait on to make a requeat.

Location was great and everything was within walking distance. Plenty of free parking available. Communication for remote entry was easy to follow. Each room seemed to be different (boutique hotel). The bathroom in our room was extremely small while others was very spacious. Overall I think the value was good

Everything was great. The room with all amenities, a great kitchen, delicious bed. It is close to the downtown within walking distance. The Brikk coffee shop has delicious coffee, bread and pastries too which is an added bonus. No-one from the hotel on site except the cleaners at times.
