I was surprised to find upon my evening arrival that the hotel parking was not secure in a parkade down the street. I was told the parkade was connected to the hotel but when I entered the stairwell access it was occupied by drug users. Had so walk out of the parkade and down the street back to the hotel.

Great area for music, food and theatre
Thanksgiving on Whyte Ave. It’s an old refurbished hotel with character. Wish the shower was better no door so water can get on the floor, but it’s big head low flow. Room coffee maker isn’t fun to use, it is unique, but coffee is good. Little fridge in a box gets very hot, leave cupboard door open. Ice is a walk to the second floor. 2Glasses, 2wineglasses and coffee cups. Complementary wine tasting in Hotel restaurant.
