Modern architecture with exposed concrete in ceilings and columns make the building quiet. Comfortable firm bed and big pillows. Interesting room layout with a frosted glass window between the shower and the bedroom. Nice bench to hold a suitcase. Reasonable price for downtown area. Wifi works fine and plenty of hot water. Tim Horton on the same block-- I didn't get the pricey breakfast in the hotel.
