4/10 Fair

Not impressed
The breakfast wasn’t very good. The tater tots were chewy and the ham was dry. Also, the pool was so cold we couldn’t go in it. The arcade is a rip off. The tokens are 50 cents each but it’s 4 tokens for air hockey, 2 tokens for pinball machines, etc.

Hotel looks kind of dingy from the outside. Room was very nice though. Recently updated and very clean. Comfortable. Spent a lot on Ubers going to the waterfront as traffic is terrible in Halifax! Parking wasn’t great at the hotel.

We enjoyed the pool, but, express concern about the slippery ceramic tiles around the pool. We feel this is a accident waiting to happen.
