This is an amazing location and really cute boutique hotel. Unfortunately it’s starting to show its age a d could use a Reno. I also think the front desk needs to be manned more and a watch needs to be happening to avoid people that shouldn’t be in there coming in. I felt a little unsafe going in late at night with people who obviously weren’t staying loitering in the lobby

Pros - 3 PM check in and 12 PM checkout. Property was mixed and is attached to a great restaurant. The rooms was small ish but very nice. Big shower was awesome! Cons - Whyte ave is loud! Motorcycles and loud cars ripping around until 2-3 AM (there is a lot of drunk noise but it’s whyte, to be expected) Would stay again
