After booking a room in the beginning of January we finally get there this past Wednesday and our room had been given to someone else. So now we pay the price and end up in a smaller room. Of course we didn’t have a choice at that point so we took it. We won’t ever be back here. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

Extremely clean, modern, very comfortable, spacious, beautifully decorated and well lit rooms. Liked and used our balcony. Wonderful and functional washroom. Liked that the toilet & shower were separated from the vanity. Liked having a large mini fridge. The complimentary Breakfast was good. Lots of choice, including a self serve specialty coffee machine. This was accessible in the lobby until 10:00 p.m. There was also a Keurig type coffee maker in the rooms. There was nothing negative
