7.4/10

The hotel is in a prime location, close to Queen Victoria Market and eateries. My room was cozy with a double bed made from two singles, offering a good night's sleep. The in-housekeeping service was efficient, but I overlooked trying the laundry service. The hot dogs at the dining venue were a pleasant surprise, although more variety would have been nice. The facilities were adequate, but not exceptional. The economical price adds value for budget travelers, making it a decent option for a short stay.
