A very trendy, warm, cozy, comfortable aparthotel. Across from Canal Street. The staff are friendly and accommodating! There is a nice coffee shop on location, The Foundation Coffee, which has a delicious selection of breakfast/brunch food.

Likes - the area was very walkable and close to everything. Grocery store across the street and a very pretty bar in the front of the building. Enjoyed access to a kitchen and washing machine. Dislikes - stayed on the first floor at the front of the building and found it very loud at night. I could hear the lyrics to the songs playing in cars as they drove past the hotel. I guess the beautiful old building doesn't come with modern day sound proofing. Unit could have been cleaner, especially in the washroom. The staff was either lovely or they ignored you - it was a very mixed experience. I’ve stayed at other Locke properties and this one didn’t live up to the brand.

I absolutely loved staying in this hotel. My studio was modern and brilliantly designed to fit all the necessities - even a washer/dryer! - into a small space. There was coffee, tea, and chilled milk in the fridge. My bed was comfortable and cozy, and I had a table for writing/eating. I loved the entry to the hotel with its arched glass atrium ceiling and cobblestone floor and great bar surrounded by lots of seating areas. The staff was fantastic- welcoming, helpful, warm, friendly, knowledgeable. When my credit card was canceled due to a fraudulent charge, they gave ma a breakfast voucher while I sorted things out.

Good sized room for the price. Good amenities, nice gym too. Only one washer and dryer. The basement rooms have a lot of light and tall ceilings, so not to worry about it being in a basement.

Very small living space, and while the kitchen was new and glossy it was black and very hard to see and use easily. Needed the torch to see the functions of appliances. Designer items placed in the small room which meant even less usable space. Yoga mat provided but no floor space to put it down. Lift was out of action for the duration of our stay and the restaurant was closed.
