No fuss entry and check-in. Nice and clean. Noise from other adjoining apartments (especially from above) ruined my experience. The creaking floorboards kept me awake most of the evening and you can quite clearly hear conversations happening in other rooms. ##### GlenD ### 8/10 Good #### Angela Oct 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Positives- Clean, spacious, older building, easy selfcheckin, perfectly placed short stroll to train station and main road/eateries, plenty of milk for cuppas. Negatives - thin walls and floors so can hear adjacent people, television could not pick up signal at all, secondary wotif messaging service did not work, there's a cutoff timer for the spa so you can't use it after 8pm. ##### Angela Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Hawaiian-Village-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13857.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points By Sheraton New York Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-New-York-Downtown.h13400088.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge by Wyndham Hotel & Convention Centre Quebec City](https://www.expedia.ca/Quebec-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Hotel-Convention-Centre-Quebec-City.h607714.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Saskatoon, SK](https://www.expedia.ca/Saskatoon-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h13671.Hotel-Information) > > [Family Hotels in Alberta](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Alberta-Family-Hotel.0-0-d11111-tFamilyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Downtown Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Niagara-Falls-Niagara-Falls-Hotels.0-n553248633981690614-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Hotel Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Hotel-Windsor.h11362.Hotel-Information) > > [The Goodenough Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Goodenough-On-Mecklenburgh-Square.h9848794.Hotel-Information) > > [The Langham, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Langham.h2112.Hotel-Information) > > [Candlewood Suites Fargo-N.
