Room 220 really needs immediate maintenance. There’s mould on the bathroom ceiling and in the tiles and grout, along with peeling paint, a dirty shower curtain, cracked tiles, and even tape on part of the rotten floor. It’s disappointing, especially given the rate — around $200 per night when booked directly. The room is small and hasn’t been properly maintained for years (I know since I’ve stayed here before), which is a real letdown.
On the positive side, the location is fantastic — very close to the city centre. However, you do get some street noise, so light sleepers might find it disruptive. The staff were very friendly, and I appreciated the gym, pool, and in-room kitchenette.
Overall, the hotel has potential, but the cleanliness and maintenance issues really need attention. I wouldn’t value this room at more than $150–$160 per night in its current condition.
Just a little tip if you’re coming with a car parking is a lot cheaper in the parking building close to the Rydges hotel 2 mins walk away.
