Room was located next to washing machines and dryers. This was quite loud while in use but bearable. Property had all the amenities to make it an enjoyable downtown stay without the huge price tag that comes with most options for the area. Parked in a nearby Parkade that was a quick walk down the street and was also lower priced for the area. Will definitely use this location again.

We were trying to get into the property, and couldn't. Many people tried to and were denied. It was an hour trying it get in. Very frustrating! The property was good when we did get in, but it was very difficult!.

This properly is a scrap. There is no sound proofing, literal none. You can even hear the noise someone walking in the hallway, so imagine when someone is talking next door. My last night was horrible. There is a pub behind the property and they did a party with loud music until 3 am. My flight was at 7 am, couldn't get a minute of sleep. They provided ear plugs. Seriously, how ear plugs supposed to work when you literally feel the drum in your windows. It was a nightmare. I don't understand how this properly was allowed to be in hotel business with zero sound proofing in a busy downtown area. They should shut it down as commercial accommodation.

The property is up against an outdoor bar called Pint. Last night (Thursday) in September there was a DJ, pounding music til 2am and well over 100 patrons partying it up. Great for them - but not me. Unable to sleep til 2am. Also, only one AC unit in suite. Need to leave bedroom doors open to stay cool. If you want to party - this is your place!

I liked that the hotel felt like a bachelor apartment rather than a hotel room. I liked that laundry facilities were available for use, and that there was a kitchen to allow for eating in. The sheets were a bit low on thread count and could have been a bit softer, and I would have appreciated if one of the pillows was thinner. Various pillow types would give more flexibility for personal preferences. All in all, I really enjoyed the suite.

Cameo is in a very central and walkable area. There’s endless dining and bar options around too. The value matches the price paid. There is no staff to greet you, but the instructions ahead of time are super clear so we had no problem getting in. I would revisit for sure.

We stayed three nights at this hotel. On the first day, we had issues entering the hotel with the provided door code. The explanation was not clear enough, and we had to reach out via text message. The service was terrible and blunt. The rooms are nice and clean, but next to the hotel is 'The Pint,' which plays very loud music late into the night. We had to call the police twice!

As advertised
Great central location but was quite loud on Sunday evening (as we were warned). Earplugs were provided and the week days were ok. Checking in was challenging through hotels.com as it wasn’t easy to find our booking confirmation number. I figured it out but might be difficult for those who are not tech savvy.

Extremely loud and noisy, close to a disco during weekends. Otherwise, well located downtown. Self check-in, come prepared with your booking confirmation to manage it on your own. Clean and perfect for a city stay.

This is the cutest and quaintest hotel within walking distance of the Halifax waterfront. I have travelled a fair amount, and this is by far the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in. Fantastic job to the cleaner! I loved everything about it and plan to stay on my next visit to Halifax.

Bad mattress
Nice room. Mattress was the foam type and we found it to cup towards the middle. Uncomfortable mattress. Not good sleep as a result.
