"This is a simple, reasonably priced place to stay in Charlottetown. It was a great location with lively entertainment and diverse dining in the surrounding blocks.
A few things I wish I’d known before staying on a Friday night:
- don’t stress too much about where to park. As of 6 PM, the meters in front of the hotel become free for the weekend! We were able to park right in front of the building for free.
- bring earplugs even if you’re not a light sleeper. I can sleep well most of the time but the arcade next door had a DJ dance party with pounding bass that was incredibly loud for us on the third floor. It quitted down at 2 AM but due to the design of the building, all noise carries - as much or more as I’ve found in Caribbean resorts.
- there’s no “store” or vending machine or anything, so plan ahead if you want snacks!
- while the room is “compact” (picture cruise ship cabin sized) and doesn’t have a nice view, it was a very clean and affordable alternative for us as a couple - at nearly 1/3 the cost of the nearby Delta hotel.
Would I stay again? Sure, if the pricing remains good and the purpose of my trip didn’t require me getting up too early. While it was noisy late at night, in the morning we slept until 9:15 since it was pretty quiet!"
