Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites
Front staff was very attentive and welcoming. Rooms were clean. And, despite being next to the laundry room it was relatively quiet. There was kew required place to lock your bikes on premises, so that provided peace of mind while staying there.

Strathcona Hotel
Stay was great. The place is accessible and location is good. The room was good although a window with a better view would have been nicer rather than watching the back alley of the next building.

The Parkside Hotel & Spa
This is a nice hotel. Hope they will add free breakfast in the future. We were upgraded for a larger room(30$ a night), but we did not need it. It was a little bit noisy outside as we were beside the lift.
