I have found this hotel quite disgusting. An old property does not mean it will also be poorly maintained. There is no fresh air at all in the hotel. It is in a very poor condition overall. All walls need to be painted and all hallways need new carpets. The front desk people do not show any interest in the comfort of their guests in addition showing no smiling faces.I would NOT recommend staying there!!

Overall it was good! But if you are looking for quiet place than this place is not for you, trafic noise is 24/7 as this is located on main downtown st(queen st). Be mindful of that rest was all good.
