10/10 Exceptional

Upon arrival, the staff were super friendly. Navigating the building was slightly confusing because they were undergoing renovations (I stayed in July 2025), but I was glad to see that they care to make improvements to their building. I booked a deluxe room with 1 queen bed. My room was clean, spacious, and I had no issues with the wi-fi. Unfortunately there is no on-site parking, but there was free street parking nearby/just outside of the building (I do not remember if it was free 24/7, or just on weekends when I had stayed). Overall, I enjoyed my stay at this hotel.

Decent stay!

Room was better than expected, decent bed and tv. No coffee/tea in the room. Guy behind reception was pretty rude to another guest whilst I was checking in. Other staff were polite. Good stay, nice street with good food/drink options.

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.

Very clean but parking is limited. There is no TV which is ok, but the internet connection was not good. Makes down time frustrating. Great location and good food places around neighborhood.

6/10 Good

Convenient walk downtown. Wifi did not work well. Since the wifi was not good, the connection to the chromecast on the TV was inconsistent.

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.

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!

Good spot in North end.

Room was small but clean, bed was comfy. Staff were friendly and helpful with our bags. You can hear most things in the hallway. Cons: no elevator and no public bathroom. Location was superb. Hot spot for locals. Food and drinks all within wallking distance. Quiet neighborbood and felt safe. Coming from Vancouver BC... felt like commercial drive. Would stay again and i would recommend folks to check out. Every local we ran into said "thats a good area".
