Underground parking has horrible signage as well. I’ve noticed that if you have a large vehicle, you may scratch your car as the insides walls have scuffs it is very tight especially with a wide vehicle

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This place is located right across from a homeless shelter, there are pan handlers all over the place. It is not a safe place to walk the streets around. The parkade is narrow and not convenient to park in at all. The card scanner to get into the parkade needs to be moved so that you don't have to climb half way out your vehicle to try scan your room key for access to parking. I would not stay at this location ever again.
