I booked a great non-refundable rate through Expedia for the Huntingdon suite
before reading reviews of bed bugs. Well let's just say I spent the whole weeks
stay itching and checking the mattress every day. I did find a bug trap under
the bed with dead bugs stuck to it but no bed bugs were found in the bed!
The maid service wasn't that great. After the fourth day I had to strip my own
bed to get clean sheets. One day we had no bath mat or soap. The next day the
kitchen garbage was left full. Dirty bathroom floor and toilet seat. It's
definitely not a 3 star hotel. There's no attention to detail. The furniture is
old, carpet old and stained. Room smells musty. The kitchen wasn't that well
stalked, everything was old. I liked the idea of the upstairs loft bedroom. It
could be a really cool suite if updated. I wouldn't stay here again.

Nice hotel with charm located right on the inner harbour. Great for catching
those early morning Ferries to Victoria Island. Across the street from Ferry
terminal. Several levels of accommodations. Check the internet for best prices.
Walking distance to restaurants, museum, harbour, etc.

We stayed here over Christmas with another couple. The location was right on the
harbour which was handy for all the places we wanted to visit. The only
disappointment was that the restaurant was not wheelchair accessible and as a
result we were not able to have any of our meals at the hotel. It would have
been nice if we were able to have some of our meals right at the hotel.

We stayed here for a week, this hotel is older but well kept and the woodwork
was beautiful. The rooms were clean and the bed [king size] and bedding very
comfortable. The room furniture was a bit dated. The staff was very friendly and
helpful. The location is excellent just off the Harbor [ very close] which also
helped with less traffic concern and noise. Many restaurants were either around
the corner or within a short walking distance. The restaurant served a decent
breakfast. Parking was underground and safe. Again Location cannot be beat.
close to many attractions such as whale watching, artists row etc Staying on the
main road that runs along the Harbor would be congested and noisy. This is a 100
ft. or less off the Harbor. For the rates a great find and would def. stay there
again.
Room Tip: ask for a King bed and a water view

The hotel has a good location downtown .... good price and basically clean (
dirty coffee cups)....they appear to be trying to save money in heating, and
paper goods.. the downside was that the hotel is dated... We paid for a King
size bed and it consisted of two single pushed together...the walls are thin and
you can here water running in the pipes and people taking in the room beside you
and the noise on the street....there was no hotel directory..so we had no idea
what services where available in the hotel...no paper or pen to write
information on..I cant comment on the services in the hotel...since I was not
aware of any of them. Check in was quick...the staff didn't offer any
information on the hotel or area. There is a $9 per day parking fee.. overall I
would not stay there as we didn't have a quiet sleep either night.
Room Tip: this is a affordable place to stay but not good for light sleepers. |
