Many appreciate the spacious rooms, some located on higher floors like the 19th, with comfortable beds and amenities such as microwaves and mini-fridges; the enclosed pool on the mezzanine is another frequently mentioned highlight.

solid downtown stay

free parking luggage room onsite restaurant
the free parking was a major plus and i appreciated i could leave my car there even after i checked out. the luggage room was convenient. moxies restaurant was right on site (i ate there twice!) and offered a solid menu and good service.
The air conditioner in my room sounded like an old machine. It clunked to life every time it came on. this woke me up a few times during the night. without it, the room became stuffy.

a fairly decent stay

convenient location nice staff excellent restaurant overpriced parking damaged carpet stained armchair
i found the location very convenient because it's right next to the lrt station, transportation downtown was easy. the staff was nice and kept the place clean. moxie's restaurant being attached was an added bonus, the food was excellent.
the parking fee felt overpriced and the height limit was quite low. i drive an suv, i worried about damaging my car on the old pipes above. our room's carpet was wrinkled, it looked damaged. the armchair had some pretty noticeable stains. i didnt want to use it at all.
