Amazing service

The staff at the front desk was absolutely incredible. I stayed there for 4 nights on business with a group of co-workers. When I arrived, I noticed some kind of error was made in my personnal booking (probably on my end) and I ended up with a 2-story suite way too big and for my needs and budget. The hotel was solidly booked, no changes were possible. The staff took the time to explain the situation to the manager and they ended up reducing the price by a lot. They absolutely weren't obligated to do that, I was stuck and needed the room. I was amazed by the humanity and helpfullness shown by the 2 young girls at the front desk.

The proximity to shopping was excellent. You can walk to most places in minutes and the transit stop is right across the street. There is also a grocery store across the street which is convenient. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, and the rooms were very clean and spacious. Would definitely recommend.

Like the stay, only issue was the parking. My vehicle was too tall to fit in the underground parking. Had to pay for parking in the high school parking lot, but was only allowed to park there during the weekend. Had to park nearly 3 blocks away for the final 2 nights. Would not stay there again due to this issue.
