The breakfast was great, it was quiet both nights. The carpet looked rough with spots all over it and the sower curtain was so flimsy and clingy I couldn't really ever shut it fully and water went everywhere. Reception was great and room service was nice. Couldn't use the sauna as it was a mess. Overall, it was fine.

Very noisy and not a lot of parking if you have a vehicle larger than a sedan. Nice room though. Breakfast included was nice.

Just a stop over or a few nights. Had a few problems finding the Ave after getting of the shuttle bus a few blocks away. Big room, plenty of space and great shower. I understand it is getting refurbished soon so all good, as a bit dated at the moment. Breakfast included is not comprehensive but suffice.
