Great location, great interior, everything working properly, clean & spacious, friendly staff too. The only problem that need to improve is that the water piping room is so noisy that we can’t really sleep well if anyone using water upstairs. Those interested to stay here I suggest to request for rooms further from the water piping room. It will be best if it’s not the noisy pipe: ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Royal Hotel Edmonton Airport, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Royal-Hotel-Edmonton-Airport.h693689.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Jupiter](https://www.expedia.ca/Jupiter-Hotels.d8007.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Essex House By Clevelander](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Essex-House-By-Clevelander.h3792.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Canmore](https://www.expedia.ca/Canmore-Hotels.d10131.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [FOX JAFFNA by Fox Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-FOX-JAFFNA-By-Fox-Resorts.h17399149.Hotel-Information) > > [The Muse New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-The-MUSE-New-York.h533673.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Surrey](https://www.expedia.ca/Surrey-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d9759-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Best Western Plus Sunset Plaza Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Sunset-Plaza-Hotel.h11485.Hotel-Information) > > [Carmel Mission Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Mission-Inn.h21218.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Lefkada](https://www.expedia.ca/Lefkada-Hotels.d181254.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels.d4138.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kigali](https://www.expedia.ca/Kigali-Hotels.d1803.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [flights from kilimanjaro intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/jro/flights-from-kilimanjaro-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Zürich (ZRH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/zrh/frankfurt-to-zurich) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Doha (DOH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lhr/doh/london-to-doha) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Kingston (YGK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/ygk/winnipeg-to-kingston) > > [flights from john c munro hamilton intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yhm/flights-from-john-c-munro-hamilton-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Duluth (DLH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/dlh/calgary-to-duluth) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Key West (EYW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/eyw/toronto-to-key-west) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to New York (LGA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/lga/halifax-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Fort McMurray (YMM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ymm/edmonton-to-fort-mcmurray) > > [Flights from Regina (YQR) to Dhaka (DAC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/dac/regina-to-dhaka) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Rome (FCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/fco/calgary-to-rome) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Pearson-Intl.d5921113.Car-Rental-Guide) > > [Car rentals in Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-John-C-Munro-Hamilton-Intl.d6033522.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Edinburgh Castle](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Castle-Old-Town-Edinburgh.d500994.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Community of Madrid](https://www.expedia.ca/Community-Of-Madrid.dx6047907) > > [Visit Anaheim](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim.dx5921) > > [Visit Bedford](https://www.expedia.ca/Bedford.dx10549)
