I stayed here with my husband due to location to a private clinic where I was having surgery. Although front desk and staff were pleasant as well as the food at the bistro was good. The room fell very short. Upon arrival the room itself had a very unpleasant smell, the bedding had a BO smell, I did not sleep under the blankets as I was worried about the cleanliness especially after my surgery. I had my own blanket so made use of it. I also became extremely congested during our stay which I unfortunately think may be due to air/heating system or mold as the floors are all carpeted. Location was great, but that was about it. My husband told me after we left that he saw a mouse near the elevator when we he was taking our things to our car. Definitely not worth the $1200 we shelled out for two nights. Do yourself a favour and stay somewheres else.

We booked a room on the top floor with harbor view and a private balcony. The location is great. The room was very nice- large, comfortable, with multiple windows & a good view. The downside is that one of the two elevators serving the entire hotel was out of order. It took forever to get up/down. Worse yet, the elevator problem has apparently been going on for several months. I gave up waiting in the garage and took the stairs to the lobby. The other item is that there was a large construction project next to the hotel and right next to our balcony. This is outside of the hotel’s control- there is a lot of construction in Halifax. It just wasn’t worth paying extra for a balcony next to construction (which starts at 7:30 AM even on Saturday.) So check your room location to avoid the construction side.

This hotel doesn’t feel like a Courtyard by Marriott. It desperately needs renovation. We stayed 4 nights and by the end we were eager to leave. The elevator was the worst part. Pros: - Great location, close to waterfront and many bars and restaurants. - Bed is comfortable and the room is very dark when you close the blinds. - Several charging outlets in the room. Cons: - 1 elevator was out of service and the only elevator working was very slow. It was always a long wait to go up or down. - Our room was close to the elevator and that elevator was extremely noisy, we heard the elevator moving all the time. It gets annoying after a while. - The room is outdated, especially the bathroom. The shower is not great, the towel holder kept falling off the wall. The hair dryer wasn’t working. The coffee machine is super outdated and it makes horrible coffee. Luckily there’s a cafe/restaurant in the lobby, so we could get coffee from there. - We didn’t need housekeeping in the first 3 nights, but the last day we left in the morning for the day, the Do not disturb sign was not at the door and housekeeping didn’t show up to our room. Overall it’s a very Ok hotel, it’s not worth the price. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Stayed here 2 nights-perfect location to waterfront & restaurants. Room was nice /quiet & bed very comfortable. We had a problem with our reservation ( my mistake-NOT hotels fault) and the manager,Paula, was extremely helpful and understanding. Definitely would stay here again

Mixed visit. The staff are friendly and the location can’t be beat. It’s right off the boardwalk and has great walking access to everything. The hotel itself feels very much like a place that was privately labeled and then got a Courtyard badge put on it by just checking the bare essentials of a checklist. The bathrooms are particularly dated, the tv channels are all mislabeled and half don’t work, one of two elevators (and no service elevators) has been out for weeks, there are active mice in the breakfast space, and the staff doesn’t seem to understand Marriott benefits. It wasn’t a terrible stay but I would have expected a more polished experience with the Courtyard brand and the price per night of the room.
