Beautifully done. The floors do creek in the room. Our room stayed warm even though the radiators were off. We slept with the windows open and one night we had the fan on also even though it was early October.

Overall stay has been great. Unfortunately, my check in experience wasn't smooth at all. Danz was very rude and I didn't appreciate her really negative attitude and behaviour towards me especially as I am a long standing and loyal customer. She didn't bother to listen to anything I was saying and charged my card when she shouldn't have. I was very disappointed with the way I was spoken to by Danz and this has left quite a bitter taste. I hope to never experience anything like this again particularly with Danz. Having said that, when I saw Nour later in the evening, as always he was so friendly and welcoming. He is such a great team member and I'm grateful that he was there when I came back. He listened to my complaint and was so understanding. Thanks to Nour for putting a smile on my face and making my stay more enjoyable.

Likes - the area was very walkable and close to everything. Grocery store across the street and a very pretty bar in the front of the building. Enjoyed access to a kitchen and washing machine. Dislikes - stayed on the first floor at the front of the building and found it very loud at night. I could hear the lyrics to the songs playing in cars as they drove past the hotel. I guess the beautiful old building doesn't come with modern day sound proofing. Unit could have been cleaner, especially in the washroom. The staff was either lovely or they ignored you - it was a very mixed experience. I’ve stayed at other Locke properties and this one didn’t live up to the brand.

I absolutely loved staying in this hotel. My studio was modern and brilliantly designed to fit all the necessities - even a washer/dryer! - into a small space. There was coffee, tea, and chilled milk in the fridge. My bed was comfortable and cozy, and I had a table for writing/eating. I loved the entry to the hotel with its arched glass atrium ceiling and cobblestone floor and great bar surrounded by lots of seating areas. The staff was fantastic- welcoming, helpful, warm, friendly, knowledgeable. When my credit card was canceled due to a fraudulent charge, they gave ma a breakfast voucher while I sorted things out.
