Spacious rooms with peek a boo views of the harbor. Quick walk to the ferry and all the sights downtown. Staff is super friendly. Rooms are spacious. And the balcony was a nice treat on a summer evening to watch the Parliament building light up.

Pros (+) A comfortable suite is much better value for the money than a single room. Very clean and well decorated with neutral colours, granite counter... way better than a stark white wall.
