A fun little pub right next-door, a great deli right across the street and a great coffee shop just up the street a block we’re all great. We walked to the citadel and then downtown so very convenient for the downtown Halifax sightseeing.

Hotel was good. Only complaints were that one of the sockets in the room didn't work so I had to move the microwave, the sink leaked a little when you turn the faucet on, and there’s no pigeon deterrents on the exterior of the A/C wall units so you can hear them land and coo at 4am

The property is located in a residential part of Halifax but close to tourist attractions like Citade andl boardwalk. The room was comfortable but rather Spartan a chest of drawers or a table perhaps. Excellent location great staff great neighborhood.

This was a tough place to stay for four nights. There is no coffee maker in the room.or anywhere in the hotel. The bed was poor. There was no desk and chair in the room to work at. It was noisy at night. You can hear everything going on below and across the hall.

The room was clean and bed perfectly comfortable. The reception staff were helpful. However the stairs and corridor were shabby. The next day I realised that the building is being renovated, maybe the stairs carpet will be gone very soon! The location is great!

It says free parking, but they only have 6 parking spots for probably 8 times as many rooms; no parking is available on the streets used by neighbouring homeowners. 20-minute walk to the nearest parkade down at Scotia Square mall.

Terrible location, dumpy hotel. You shouldn’t even put this motel in your app. For someone not familiar with Halifax, I feel I was misled with the description. No coffee, no water, noisy and NO PARKING. Staff didn’t know the area or even suggest a place to park! NEVER AGAIN…turned me off Expedia

Disliked: Amenities
This is a great location near downtown, plenty to do just outside the door. The building is worn and sound travels easily through the walls. There is no local TV available, only casting. If I'm traveling solo I would stay there again, probably not if I were with a partner. Adequate accommodations at a good price point.

We got to this property when it was dark. Area did not look very safe. There was nowhere to park, and was not gonna walk from 4 blocks away in that area. Cannot give an honest review of the interior, because once we saw it, we got the heck out there. Nobody would even answer the phone for me to let them know, so we just sucked up the cost, and never checked in.

This was the worst stay i have ever had! There is no parking so you have to move your car every hour between 8-6 or get a parking ticket. There was pubic hair in the shower.There was no hot water.There was no cable.There was garbage in the garbage bin.From the previous renter, the dust was so thick I wrote my name in it there's no cable. This place is not fit to even still be open! Save your money and rent else where.
