Top hotels in Connaught
Best Western Plus Suites Downtown
Room was clean and bed was made every day as well as towels being changed. Breakfast was better than expected. The only negative I have to say is that check in was stated to be at 4pm and the room was still not ready by that time which left us uncomfortable after a long day of travel.
