    It would be nice if all items were functional and not half broken like the bath tub faucets and the shower items. The water pressure is ridiculous low so it takes an eternity to fill the bath tub. We also had some really loud yelling room neighbors that you can hear almost all night discussing and yelling....not really relaxing. Finally it would be nice to have a small fridge in the room to keep things cold

    It is a really nice and relaxing place,

    Stairs are only problem.

    There are multiple flights of stairs outside and inside. Two flights minimum and 3 to the King penthouse. Rooms are nice, very modern style but comfy. We would definitely have packed differently on that part of our long trip had we known about the stairs. Other than that, place is nice.

    Breakfast fine, location very quiet. in residential area. Easy drive to happening part of Halifax or a 10-14 Canadian dollar Uber ride. 10 minutes max. The only problem was not knowing about the numerous stairs.

    Modern high-design reno in a residential neighborhood, might stay again.

    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    People should know: there are a lot of stairs. Not a problem for me but it would be harsh to show up and be unable to climb them. Also the "sunrise queen suite" has an unusual in-room toilet which is fine for solo travelers but you must be VERY VERY good friends with your travel companion. I've never been that comfortable with even a spouse. A folding screen or a curtain would be a cheap improvement. I think the other rooms do have toilets with doors. Unfortunately, I had the bad luck to stay during extraordinary heat and the mini-split A/C was nonfunctional. Likely that's a fluke and will be repaired and/or won't matter under normal circumstances. Breakfast ... didn't happen. There might have been an expectation that I had a working phone, which I didn't.

    The rooftop deck is lovely, and the Caribbean restaurant around the corner is almost worth returning for a few days for that alone. The other guests were quiet and affable. Coffee was great and the self-serve drinks fridge was a nice touch. Hydrostone has some restaurants that looked really interesting even though I didn't partake, and they're a bit of a walk, depending on your age and fitness level. I met only one of the hosts, who was super friendly, and otherwise kept to herself. I appreciated the accommodation of my request for a (slightly) early checkin.

    I wish I read some of the other comments. A lot of items are semi-broken. The shower drain was seriously blocked. Told the hostess twice and they replied twice that they fixed it, but they did not. The hostess was also constantly using the washer / dryer that is in our “private bathroom”. The “private bathroom” was also outside of our unit. You would have to walk out of our room and into public hallway before entering the “private bathroom”, which technically everyone else would also have access to. The main door was very difficult to open (and hostess is not professional at all). Even the hostess got locked outside and she called me at 2 AM asking me to open the door for her (yes, I know, beyond ridiculous).

    The hot tub in the back was quite nice

    The room was very noisy during the night for 2 main reasons, the heat coming into the room not the heat pump, I couldn't sleep with the noise plus was very hot and not way to turn it off. In addition the noise from a door hitting on the room above I think was because the wind , those guesses were also upset they couldn't sleep either dye the noise Also the comforter was dirty, sheets didn't smell clean

    The two girls working during my stay one from Nigeria and one from NS were professional, kind and provide great service.

    Major disappointment

    For such a new building, it is showing many flaws and needs of repair. We booked the king suite penthouse quite some time in advance of our stay, only to be thoroughly disappointed once arriving. For being advertised as “ luxury “ I regret to say this is a far cry from such. - in room jacuzzi was disgusting, pumping out pinkish red fluid colours from the jets when turned on, taps are falling off and loose, and panels are falling off. - shower knob is broke off and unusable. - bed cheap and uncomfortable - outdoor balcony is almost fearful to walk on as many of the tiles are loose. - rooftop balcony was non accessible/ door crudely tied shut. - zero privacy in the backyard for use of the outdoor hot tub and sauna - very limited amenity options in the common area, half drank bottles of wine. - no in room Tv, and an old outdated radio for entertainment - duct tape holding something on in the bathroom. We opted out of the breakfast options as our hopes weren’t high at this point. All in all, our long awaited night out, has been a major disappointment when we had such high hopes of being able to enjoy ourselves at this location. We certainly won’t be booking again.

    Looks and design had us fooled.

    it could have been made clearer on the listing that there would be common spaces and staff present throughout the stay, this made it less private than we imagined it would be but it was still a lovely stay

    breakfast was fantastic, the space was beautifully designed, and the hot tub, spa, and rooftop were lovely bonuses!

    We were very disappointed from our room. We spent 40 days in Quebec, New Brunswick, all over Nova Scotia, and had not such bad experience. According the photos in your website and the price we agree to pay, we were sure it will end our trip in Canada with pleasure and LUXURY, but instead we have a great aggravation: 1. No private bathroom The “private bathroom” is the laundry room of the hotel which was still busy with laundry at 9 pm‼️ The "privet" bathroom was shared by the housekeeper. 2. Strong smell of mosquito repellent in the bathroom 3. No shelf or small table/chair attached to one side of the bed (for water for example) 4. No mirror in the room. 5. No desk, no chair in the room (instead, 1 armchair on which we put all our stuff). I had a zoom meeting. You can see how comfortable it was… 6. A towel was lying on the floor awaiting to collect drops from the air condition

    breakfast was very good.

    The finishes on the interior were very luxurious, loved the common area and the ambiance it created; the high ceilings, large windows, big tree, modern furniture. There were simple touches that were very alluring, the heated floors, the coffee bar, the illuminated surfaces. Someone had also gone out of their way to clear the snow off my car in the morning! Rebecca was an awesome host, just very warming and charming. The in house chef was very inviting and provided a warm experience with the meal. The sauna and hot tub were a great experience as the snow began to to gently come down at night. A great memory to cap off the trip with.

    Overall cleanliness was very poor, some black mold in shower area, so much pigeon poop on top patio level that you couldn’t really sit on any furniture, would not use the BBQ because it was covered in poop, plus no grate inside the BBQ. Some of the patio stones on the balcony and top level were very wobbly, you would have to watch your step. Almost every door in the place had issues opening or closing or just very loose with visible broken pieces, there was a latch and key lock on one door screwed into the door frame. You could tell the building was a very fast build to make a maximum profit. Overall price for the place was definitely not acceptable, should be lowered to at least $200 a night, or less.

    The breakfast was excellent and staff member was very hospitable, the view from the top floor was pretty cool but that is all the place had to offer.
