My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room, although lacking a harbor view, was lovely and spacious, equipped with convenient amenities like a full-size fridge and even a dishwasher, making it perfect for long business trips. The service was excellent, with friendly and efficient staff who went above and beyond to cater to my needs, even reducing the room rate and removing unnecessary parking charges. The location was superb, within walking distance of many interesting places and right by Citadel, ideal for exploring downtown Halifax. The dining experience, although not perfect, offered a decent selection of hot and cold dishes with delicious coffee available 24/7. Overall, a great stay with a few minor hiccups.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful overall. The rooms are spacious, clean, and had everything we needed until a hiccup with the housekeeping service on the fourth day. The staff was top-notch, some of the best I've encountered, with promises of a refund for an error in charges. The location was excellent, close to the historic Citadel and the charming harbor. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with good dinner socials but some disappointing food choices. The facilities were convenient, perfect for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, though spacious and lovely, had some cleanliness issues like a 'pee-like spot' on the carpet and fingerprints on the headboard. However, it was equipped with great amenities like a full-size fridge and a dishwasher. The service provided was extremely friendly and accommodating, adding to a pleasant experience overall. The location was perfect, being walking distance to many attractions. Dining had its flaws with some chaos and less hot food, but the breakfast was tasty with varied choices. Overall, a comfortable stay with room for improvement.
