The hotel was very clean and had excellent facilities. We enjoyed the free on-street parking and the convenient bus stop nearby. The location, opposite a beautiful park and in The Shore area, was stunning. It was a few minutes away from downtown, making it easy to explore the city. The breakfast was delicious, with a good variety of options. The staff were friendly and welcoming.
Liked everything.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were incredibly pleasant and helpful. Our room was spacious, clean, and modern, with a large en-suite bathroom and a flat screen television. We loved the complimentary decanter of sherry that was refilled each day. The breakfast selection was excellent and kept us fueled for the day. The hotel's location was perfect for us, as it was very close to a bus stop that took us straight into the city, and we could also walk to Ocean Terminal and Claremont Park.
Nothing, it is perfect.

Nothing all excellent.
