Everything was great about this place. The location worked well for us (we like to walk so we walked across the bridge to Halifax and took the ferry back). The apartment was clean, well equipped and the host met us to let us in as we had planned. The place was quiet and was just as described on the booking. It was well worth the money. We were able to pick up a few groceries at the nearby grocery store (within walking distance) and cooked a little meal for dinner. Highly recommend if you are...

The hotel was exceptionally clean the rooms were beautiful. Nice and new. The pool area was awesome and had a waterslide and a splash pad for small kids. All the staff were amazing and super helpful and we took advantage of the breakfast room service and it was excellent! The hotel is conveniently located close to Dartmouth Crossing which has loads of restaurants and shopping. Also it’s super close to the McKay bridge making it super quick to get over to Halifax. We would definitely recommend...
