The parking is over $18 per day including tax. It’s not covered and its not secured. Many homeless in the area. Like 8-10 at all times. The rooms are very dated to around 1980. The breakfast is great, however a lot of disposable plates and utensils which ruins the meal and not environmentally responsible.

I'm not sure why people mention that the homeless people make the area feel uncomfortable or unsafe. They are people too, and no one has ever bothered me while staying there many times. Plus, the Ale House is nearby and Morrissey House is across the street!

Pro: It was close to downtown. Reasonable upgrade upgrade to Junior suite but bed was uncomfortable. Were there for a week and had left sign on door a number of times to have the room refreshed and it wasn't done till our last day after i went to the reception to ask for it as well . Wife felt very unsafe with the homeless who seemed to be roaming freely in the undergroundparki
