The staff was really lovely and kind. The room was spotless and looked freshly painted. We loved having the bedroom separate from the living space. It felt like an apartment instead of a hotel room. We would definitely stay at the Elmwood again.

Service was very friendly and helpful. The upgrade was appreciated and the fact that I could checkin earlier after a long flight. Location is great close to a bakery in what seems like a good neighborhood. Bed was comfortable , heater in the bathroom was great Z soap, conditioner and shampoo provided. Maybe the only thing I would change is not charge extra for laundry as it’s off putting.

Excellent choice, and value for money!

Amazing bed, king size pillows that are the right firmness, great dining minutes away on foot, adjustable shower rose suitable for very tall people, warm room didn’t even use heating, great water pressure, have marked as favourite and intend to stay here again next time!
