4/10 Fair

Good enough

Good location - 5min walk from Halifax Commons and 20min walk from downtown, next to the Brown Hound Pub. TV but no cable, AC loud, the duvet smelled musty and the bathroom was clean-ish. Staff were very nice. Good enough if all you need is a place to sleep.
Candice, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bathroom plug didn’t work Dirty No iron or blow dryer No tv Would never recommend
Brenda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

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

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Karen, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
Sean, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Wifi was the pits. No breakfast (as advertised). Shower and sink were leaky. Window overlooked their incomplete renovation. A lot of stairs.
Jessica, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The parking was hard to find, which entrance to use was hard to find. There were a lotnof undesirable people around the neighborhood, such as prostitutes and street people. I wouldn't stay there again.
Magdolna, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

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
JANET, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It is an older building with no elevators. The room was clean. No extras like coffee maker, no cable.
Christine, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

Room was very dirty and cold inconvenient for parking also thank you
Kelly Jean, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

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.
Carol, 1-night trip

Simple but dated property. Decent location, walk to many restaurants.

Jordan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Let me start by saying the people who run this place are the nicest. Nothing but warm and welcoming ladies we encountered in the afternoon and a couple of gentlemen later on at different times. With that said, the place is undergoing renovation (as of June 2025), so be prepared for things to be a little messy. I would say most reviews of the hotel being run down with mold are incorrect, as we had a room (310) in the front of the hotel which was perfectly fine (except for the loud air conditioning which if you think about it, acted as white noise). Neat bathroom with decent soap and fixtures, while beds although small (I’m 5’10 and my legs would go overboard) were comfortable. Considering the price, it’s a great place for a night!

Very noisy,, doors slamming, people yelling. There was no closet to hang my clothes just a few hooks, no iron /ironing board, no coffee machine in room. The mini fridge sounding like it was breathing….. would not recommend
