"Great location, very clean facility with amenities, the staff was very friendly and were able to accommodate a room change request very quickly. The bed was extremely comfortable-great after a long day and night of exploring. Breakfast was included with the suite we had and had a good selection to choose from. The only thing I would recommend is to get a room on the Market street side. The drinking age in Nova Scotia is 19 and the bars on the Grafton street side allow their patrons to wander around outside making all kinds of noise. It was easily between 3:30 and 4:00 a.m. when it finally stopped (hence the room change!) I would stay there again as long as I picked the quiet side of the property!"
