    An odor lingered in the room and hallway. No deadbolt for safety. Doors shift. Wanted to check in early in the morning (5am) but no one there and no one answered phone.

    Room was clean, friendly and helpful staff.

    The room was uncomfortably hot will no apparent way to regulate heat except sleep with an open window…the breakfast was pretty basic

    Well located and easy to find… the room was large and clean …it even had a fireplace , though not used

    Was not clean The building was not taken care of The furniture was chipped as were areas in and outside of the building The room had not been dusted in quite a while The window sills were dirty I can only image what the Carley was like so always wore my socks The breakfast area looked like a dungeon with sparsely populated areas The breakfast itself had no eggs no meat no drink options except coffee The hotel might have been a good idea at one time however it is on the downward slope being a total waste

    Nothing

    The room was too warm and there seemed no way to turn down the heat….the breakfast was pretty meagre, I chose to go out.

    Modern premises and in good condition…easy to reach and loads of parking…

    Breakfast was very limited to bread, cereal and muffins. Rooms could do with a good spring clean.

    Very convenient location, friendly staff, free parking, comfortable beds.

    Room was stifling. Had portable air conditioner but sounded like having a motorbike in your room. no food of any kind. poorly maintained. our room curtain came off rail when opening. very bent towel rail. Generally not loved. Did have communal cooking facilities but even they looked very unloved.

    Clean sheets and hot shower

    The hotel advertised breakfast but apparently hadn’t been able to provide breakfast for several months. They didn’t advise us prior to arrival and didn’t adjust the price. Furthermore the hotel is in serious need of repairs. The bathrooms in the main floor public area were out of commission the taps in our room leaked a window was broken etc.

    Rooms were clean and comfortable

    This place has seen its best years some time ago. The carpet floor in my room was full of stains and the air was full of sweet smelling disinfectant. What I really disliked were the nightly calls on my room phone.

    The breakfast was basically non-existent, and we purchased breakfast groceries to get a meal with some protein. There was no working TV in my room, and my choice for cooling was a noisy portable AC or the window (I chose the window). The sheets were rough and I prefer a flatter pillow. My neighbours were up at 3:30 leaving for work I presumed (several rooms worth of people). Of course the property can't control when people are moving around.

    The location was terrific, across the street from the hospital. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
