A cool hotel
This hotel was great! It is close to restaurants and a theatre. It has a gym onsite, which is great! The hotel room was clean. The staff were very helpful. I would recommend that people stay there.

Nice getaway
Beautiful neighborhood with lots to explore. Great area. Check in was good just difficult to understand the person checking us in. Beds are firm but quiet peaceful stay.

Mar 18, 2025
The room was large and well lit, which was good because there was a very dark floor and ceiling. Very clean and modern. Front desk staff were great. Fast, smooth elevators. Everything was good except the bathroom, which had only one tiny hook to hang a towel beside the sink with no other hooks or towel bars in the bathroom, a sliding door that had large gaps when closed, no evidence of a working exhaust fan, and low water pressure.

Modern hotel in a convenient location
Easy check in, secure underground parking, lots of restaurant options down the street and good access to the U of C and Olympic Oval. The hotel is a newer building, very clean and modern.
