Real Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Previous Guests Had to Say
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the hotel's convenient location near the airport, especially praising the complimentary airport shuttle service. Many appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which are loft suites with full kitchens. Dining at the on-site Moxies restaurant is also a common positive experience, though some guests have felt the hotel's pricing doesn't always represent the best value, especially during peak seasons. You can find a large Chinese supermarket across the street, and Costco is only a short walk away.

I enjoyed the swift and easy check-in. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. My room was lovely and clean. That was a good start to my journey.

Convenient airport proximity

airport shuttlecomfortable bedfast checkloft stairs
The hotel provides a timely and reliable airport shuttle. The shuttle runs frequently. It departs every hour. My king sized bed in the loft suite was very comfortable. I appreciated the fast check in and check out.
The stairs to the loft bedroom might be difficult for seniors (or anyone needing frequent bathroom trips at night).

The hotel is close to the airport, about a 10-minute drive. There are several stores within walking distance, including a dollar store and an Asian grocery store. I noticed a tim hortons for a quick breakfast only three minutes away.

The hotel staff was very friendly. The reception area provided a charging station. This allowed me to remain there as long as I wanted. I found the complimentary airport shuttle very convenient.
The bed did not seem clean. I was moved to a different room late after my flight. The beds were old and sagged in the middle. These beds were double size and felt very small.
