Refurbished and clean rooms, but too small. Located in main street. Very good restaurant, one of the best in Whitehorse. The soundproofing is terrible.

Nice clean place. We had a fun stay and it had free parking. The location was ideal. The staff was extremely helpful and kind. The room was a little small for the amenities inside. The bed was a bit small too but it was just the two of us so it worked. Overall, I would recommend it.

We went to the restaurant tonight, I ordered scallops and mussels, the scallops were great, although, there was no sauce in the mussels, so why even give bread? Our waitress didnt come see us all night other then at the beginning for a drink and to place our order and at the end to pay, which is why I was only able to order one drink all night. Bad service, mediocre food, overpriced. Had high hopes for this place, will not be coming back.
