Pros (+) The room was clean and charming. White linens. All very nice.
Cons (-) We asked for coffee in our room and it was delivered. A Keurig with less than quality coffee and not too much of it.
Pros (+) The Canary is a beautiful hotel with amazing service.

Pros (+) The location was good.
Cons (-) The hotel was very noisy and only moderately clean. There was mold in the bathroom and several spiders in the room. The bed was also unomfortable.
Pros (+) Atmosphere is nice. Romantic. Room is cozy. Location is by far the best thing. So close to State street. 10 min to anywhere worthwhile.
Cons (-) A bit noisy in the room. Rooftop is cute but small. Pool and jacuzzi is small.
Pros (+) Ian at the front desk was absolutely phenomenal. He went way out of his way to make sure we were comfortable, and gave us a fantastic recommendation for dinner. The valets were extremely pleasant, willing to help and attentive
Cons (-) They seem to be a bit understaffed.
Pros (+) Very Quiet, very clean and friendly staff. Centrally located, walking distance to many venues. Great experience.
Pros (+) Beautiful hotel, nicely located downtown. Great restaurant.
Cons (-) The pool staff was horrible. So slow, so inattentive, and kind of rude.

Cons (-) Rooms and bathroom a bit small
