Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
this property is all around average. its a GREAT location, but the rooms are basic with bad views. the internet is SLOW, the coffee in the room was terrible and the showers had no shower mat and felt very very unsafe.
We were thrilled and surprised to be upgraded to a suite. Diana and the front desk staff were amazing. Because of the construction parking was a challenge particularly when we had a Veteran with mobility issues with us. We found the hotel was in need of and update to be honest. Furniture is old and rooms need a good clean and mend. We enjoyed our visit. Thank you.

Great location
The hotel location is great for sight seeing in Halifax. The hotel is clean but very dated. The bed was comfortable but the furniture in the room was old and quite worn. The staff were excellent and very helpful.

The construction made it very difficult to enter and exited the hotel
Should have been informed when making booking about construction, no available parking at hotel , street blocked off , 15 min parking , staff was not very helpful about our needs . Where to park away from hotel .
It was disappointing to discover we had to walk through a mall and an office building to get to the parkade. When we checked in we were given a double sized murphy bed that was a foot away from the wall. We requested a king bed in our reservation. When we approached the front desk after checking we were told that the bed is a queen and that was what we requested. They were sold out the first night and they’d see what they could do for the rest of our stay. The next morning they called our cell phone and the room at 8:15 in the morning to tell us we could switch rooms- no sleeping in on our holiday. The breakfast we had our first morning at the attached Tempo restaurant was made perfect because of the great friendly server and good food! The rest of our stay went off without a hitch.
Defiantly not the best hotel I have stayed at. Small and old looking rooms. Not very clean. Construction was going on everywhere around the hotel, couldn’t even pull up to the front. The best thing about it is the location, pretty neutral to everything. For the price I paid I would just find another hotel around the area.
Overall, the room was clean, big enough. They have a rule of only cleaning rooms every third day of your stay. So we had to ask for towels and toilet paper during our stay. The area is under construction so it made for some inconvenience but that’s not the hotel’s fault.
The little cafe “Tempo” was convenient and had decent choices for meals and beverages at all hours of the day. Staff were friendly.
After learning our AC wasn’t working well in our guest room, the front desk staff took every opportunity to offer alternative ways to help the situation. Eventually the room they placed us in exceeded all expectations for our stay - thank you to the team at the front desk for being so accommodating!
