“The hotel presents a paradox: an older exterior opens to surprisingly well-kept interiors, reflecting the housekeeping staff's commitment. While its central location is convenient for accessing downtown Whitehorse, the building's age is apparent, though offset by renovations, and the modest pet fee is now standard across hotels. For those passing through, it strikes me as a practical choice, balancing location with ongoing improvements.”
