Parking not included. 28$ for one night is INSANE. They didn’t tell you until afterwards. Also, $150 damage deposit per room that they fail to mention on Expedia as well. Was WAY more expensive than what the original plan was. No breakfast included, wasn’t really a great deal. Rooms were nice tho! AC units were very noisy and old.

Very close to the Casino Nova Scotia and Halifax Waterfront.Indoor passageway that brings you to most places downtown halifax. Lobby was very clean and staff were really nice! Hotel room was not as clean as we would of expected, there was stains in the bathtub and we could see that the room has not been renovated in a while.We could also hear everyone walking by in the hall and the cleaning storage was right beside our room and the noise woke us up in the morning. But overall nice staff and great spot if you’re planing to spend a night downtown Halifax!

I had an incredibly disappointing experience with this hotel. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this was not the place we expected. The room was absolutely disgusting—dirty, dingy, and nothing like the photos we had seen online. It was clear the space was not properly maintained. To make matters worse, the staff was unhelpful and seemed completely uninterested in addressing our concerns. Instead of offering any kind of solution or assistance, we were met with incompetence and indifference. We felt so uncomfortable that we decided to leave and book another hotel immediately. I would strongly advise others to avoid this property. It’s not worth your time, money, or peace of mind.

There was a homeless person sleeping in the walk way on the way from parking. Hotel was also super outdated. Shower made a loud screaming noise when you had any hot water on. Loud noises from the vents in the ceiling all night long.

First of all, if you were trying to get to this property, it is an absolute nightmare with the current road construction conditions. You will have to park a fair bit away so if you are mobility challenged, do not stay there. Secondly, on December 13 at 8:05 AM I heard a noise in my room that sounded like somebody had entered. There was no knock at my door. There was no announcement, and approximately 30 seconds later, a lady was standing over my bed, staring at me. Upon further investigation, this housekeeping staff entered my room had a look through my bathroom opened up my closet and enter the room where I was laying in bed underneath my sheets. I’ve never experienced this before, and after my third night of staying there and probably my seventh day of the year I don’t think I can go back.

Although the construction around the property is less than ideal, I know it’s only temporary. Still, we were able to park nearby with ease and have our parking validated. Also, given that this is a busy city, we never had to walk very far to find something to do.

The staff at the hotel are wonderful. The room is dated. We had a window that wouldn’t shut tight. Repair man came right away to fix it. But the room was cold and despite putting the heat on blasting all night, we had to call for blanket.. which was challenging because the phone didn’t work properly. We had no dial tone and had to use the speaker option. And finally our room keys stopped working. All in all, room was cheap but not likely to stay here again. Beds were comfortable.
