Stayed
here
for
4
nights
since
I
always
passed
by
the
place
and
wanted
to
check
it
out.
Overall,
it
was
an
average
stay
that,
in
my
opinion,
was
not
worth
the
money.
However,
if
you
are
someone
interested
in
staying
in
a
historic
building
with
character
and
exceptional
service,
I'd
say
go
for
it.
The
staff
is
definitely
the
highlight
of
the
service.
Majority
of
them
are
very
kind,
patient,
accommodating,
friendly,
and
formal,
especially
those
at
the
front
of
the
hotel
(who
offered
to
help
with
my
luggage),
the
maids
(one
of
whom
recognized
me
throughout
the
hotel
and
always
wished
me
a
pleasant
day),
and
especially
the
people
at
front-desk.
I
made
the
idiot
move
of
forgetting
to
bring
a
physical
credit
card
for
payment,
and
all
the
receptionists
were
extremely
kind
and
accommodating
to
working
around
the
issue
which
I
highly
appreciated.
However,
I
had
a
somewhat
rude
encounter
with
an
Asian
dude
at
bell
desk,
but
otherwise
everyone
was
superb.
There
is
a
disconnect
from
what
the
reviews
say
and
how
the
hotel
actually
is.
Some
reviews
mentioned
to
check
out
the
rooftop,
but
I
spoke
to
a
worker
who
said
that
there
is
no
rooftop.
Additionally,
some
reviews
mention
paid
wifi,
but
wifi
is
free
(they
provide
the
password
at
check-in).
The
entire
building
is
sparkless
and
clean.
It
is
definitely
luxurious
and
is
reminiscent
of
the
art
deco
era.
Lobby
is
a
nice
place
to
hang
out
and
is
nicely
kept.
Loved
the
decorations
in
the
main
area.
Pool
is
smaller
than
what
the
photos
present.
Of
the
3
times
i
went
there,
the
first
2,
there
was
no
one
was
reception
and
anyone
could
walk
in.
On
my
3rd
time,
there
was
someone
there
who
said
a
reservation
was
required,
which
caught
me
off
by
surprise.
For
such
a
big
building,
I
was
expecting
more
places
to
hangout,
but
you
can
really
only
hang
out
at
the
lobby
and
pool
area
and
gold
lounge
if
you
are
a
member.
Other
floors
you
can
explore
are
empty
or
closed
off
due
to
COVID.
Room
was
pretty
good.
Some
people
mention
that
the
rooms
are
outdated,
but
I
believe
the
designers
are
keeping
in
touch
with
the
general
nature
or
the
hotel's
historic
atmosphere.
Shower
is
absolutely
heavenly.
Beds
are
very
soft
and
comfy.
Pillows
are
on
the
soft
side
rather
than
firm.
As
mentioned
prior,
room
service
was
exceptional
and
made
sure
to
keep
your
room
clean.
I
did
find
2
hairs
in
my
shower
when
I
first
checked
into
my
room,
but
otherwise
everything
else
was
good.
Overall,
I
am
satisfied
with
my
stay.
The
staff
is
the
highlight
of
the
experience;
they
are
what
makes
this
hotel
so
special
from
my
stays
at
other
hotels.
Very
distinctly
Canadian!
Otherwise,
for
the
price,
I
believe
you
can
go
somewhere
better,
therefore
I
would
not
return
here.
