Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was pleasantly surprised by the property. Room was clean, and it was very quiet - unlike being in a hotel where you hear guests in the hallway. It was difficult to find the front entrance as I arrived at night and it was quite dark, but after driving around the property, I found my way. Bed was comfortable, washrooms clean. Shared kitchen area and washrooms were very clean. Felt like I was back in university residence. Conveniently close to Western University. Would definitely book here again.

I like having access to a kitchen with tea making facilities (with Twinings Earl Grey) and a living room with a large TV. Nice atmosphere and quiet.

Room didn’t have shower. I was agree to pay extra to get room with shower, but hotel refused Expedia prices for another room. They required very expensive price for room with shower. I definitely will stay in another hotel next time.

I enjoyed the stay and will come back again. It would have been nice to have had at least basic cable and not just one tv channel available. An upholstered chair to sit in with small desk to place laptop for work. would have been handy Not sure why the moveable light over my bed did not function. I added a new bulb and tested the input which seemed fine. Info regarding the mall close by would have been nice as well as hours regarding availability to the chapel. A small room for exercise is strongly recommended I was surprised that there was no space with at least a bike or rowing machine. Very nice place of which I felt very safe just needs some updates.

I liked the history of the building and found it quaint. I did enjoy my stay and the bed was comfortable, but as it is "no frills" I expected the pricepoint to be more reasonable than a hotel. The people were friendly and the location was excellent.

What service used to be like.
Upon arrival I was greated by the kindest, sincerest front desk person I have ever encountered. It was like coming home even though I have never been here before. The history of the building is fascinating, and the way the owners incorporated the old into the current is genius and respectful of the history. You get more then a bed for the night, you get an experience. This may be the first time in my adult life that I have felt like a true 'guest' at a lodging and not just a credit card.

Kind of like staying in a dorm. Clean enough. Functional. Nice (although few) staff. Shared kitchen works well with hot plate and toaster oven. Room with kitchenette had fridge, dishwasher and microwave. But really not your typical hotel.
