I enjoyed my stay quite a bit. I've lived in Halifax before and now live outside of the city. Booked a room for one night for an event in the city and nearly everything was perfect. Room was quaint and tiny, but perfect for one person or a couple.

Cameron, Canada

The staff was extremely helpful, the location is not too bad, this is one of the cheapest locations in Halifax if you want to be close to the city center. Breakfast was also good.

Tamas, Hungary

The convenient location and parking. Plus good eats nearby.

Gene, United States of America

Excellent staff, very accommodating. A great location for our purposes. The bathroom did have new fixtures.

Wayne, Canada

I stayed 8 nights as I was moving to Halifax. The staff were very helpful. The room was basic with fridge and tv. The location was fine for walking downtown. The room was clean.

Gita, Germany

The restaurant next door was great. The room was great. It had windows on 2 sides. I liked the staff. I hope I can come again

Dave, Canada

The woman working the front desk was amazing. Super nice and friendly. Check in and check out was very easy.

Tyson, Canada

The room was supose to be a deluxe room, it was very small and very smelly, like mildew. The door was open about a half inch, even when locked, and the catch was torn off on the inside. We stayed about 2 minutes and returned the keys to the front desk. the smell was overwhelming, wouldnt let my dog sleep in this room. I lost over a hundred dollars beccause they wouldnt refund our money.I think we deserve our money back, dont you?????

Bruce, Canada

Price was extremely reasonable and the staff was very welcoming and friendly. Very Nova Scotian in their deneanor.

Heather, Canada

Very friendly staff. Always helpful and gave good guidance on sightseeing around Halifax.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“This hotel had an artsy vibe. There were books in the hallway, along with references to the history of Halifax. The staff were extremely accommodating to our religious needs, and our room gave us a nice view of the street, which was entertaining. The hotel was also in a great location, in the middle of everything but just enough out of the way for quietness.”

CandyTraveler

United States of America

“Pleasant staff with an old world charm of a family run inn. Not the cookie cutter aproach of the big chains. Far cheaper than those chains too! Also 6 mins. car ride to downtown.”

Nathan

Canada

“Friendly staff, comfy bed, room had fridge and microwave.Short walking distance to places, excellent pizza place up road.Good value for money.Included breakfast.”

눉I didn't like the mouse trap in our room. I didn't like the fact that the T.V. only had one channel and after we tried to change the channel we had none, the fact that I hit my head on the shelf when I brushed my teeth or the dust in the bathroom. I especially didn't care for the dirt still in the bathtub.

눉Only negative I have to say, which is very minuimal, is that the room I happened to stay in was far from the internet router so my Wi-Fi signal was weak but that's nothing.
