Our deluxe room (a corner room overlooking the harbour) was dated and had ants crawling in the bathroom. Otherwise the room was clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast which was $22.00 each was a buffet. Parking was free. Location of the hotel is excellent with lots of restaurants nearby.

All of the carpets smell and should be replaced. Staff were excellent. Especially the ladies working the breakfast area. Food was ok. Parking is way too expensive and should be included in the price of the room.
We had a balcony with view of the igloo type domes. The property looked abandoned and uninviting.
