Valued Guest, We are currently refurbishing our balconies from Monday to Saturday, between 9am and 3pm. The noisiest work, involving chipping of concrete and railing removal, should be completed by April 30, 2019. Thereafter, the less noisy work of infilling and repairing the concrete and installing new railings, will take 4 months from May 1, 2019 to August 30, 2019. Such noise will affect our Signature and Studio and Economy Suites on floors 4 - 12, where there are balconies. Our Executive and Mini suites on floors 1 - 3, where there are no balconies, will experience reduced noise. As well, during this period, the balcony doors will only open 4 inches, to permit fresh air flow. We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions. Sincerely, The Business Inn & Suites.

The set-up is a little weird and hallways a bit of a maze but once you find your way around it is fine.
Despite the ongoing renovations on Elgin Street and the hotel balconies, my stay was not affected at all. The room had everything necessary and I would recommend it for longer stays as it was a fully equipped studio. The breakfast room could use a little love but there is plenty of selection.

“Beyond expectations.”
- • Solo traveler

The weather! : )
The room was actually an entire apartment with living room area and kitchen. It was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fine, but I thought the pre-packed lunches that were available were a generous touch. The staff were welcoming, friendly and professional. The location is excellent (although Elgin street is currently completely ripped up as they replace the services). The value for price was fantastic, but that may be due to the fact that the hotel is under renovation. However construction noise stopped precisely at 3 pm every day and there's so much to do within walking distance (and beyond) that people are not likely to be in during the day - I thought the hotel management balanced the need for renovations and consideration of current guests as well as possible.

Due to construction on road, location was tough to reach. Underground parking is too constrained in space, be sure to be a good driver before you go there lol. Elevator system is a mystery.
Very clean room. Professional set up. Highly equipped rooms all facilities included Above and beyond satisfied with room and cleanliness.
