We like staying at the property for location and services offered. However this time we the property feeling a bit run down and dated. One of the beds was either broken or severely worn on one side. To the point where we were falling off the bed.

No blue bins - not eco friendly in the rooms. Staff wasn’t knowledgeable w/ the events of the hotel (ie was supposed to be a complimentary wine tasting, which was reiterated to us @ check-in but there was a wedding there & front staff apparently wasn’t aware. Room was not as expected & not worth what they charge. View was a concrete roof top. Found day front staff a bit abrupt/rude). Breakfast was not incl w/ our king suite(s) & was $14.95 ea for a mediocre breakfast w/ a few hot foods. Parking will cost you $20 +tax in the parkade. We came back from our night out to people making out on our vehicle before security showed up! Ended up w/ some ‘scuff’ marks on the car. The stairwell to the parkade stunk & was littered w/ ‘stuff’. Not very safe. First & last time staying @ the hotel.
