Centennial Inn on Bathurst

Not the best Hotel to stay in, room had a bad smell, noise of traffic kept me awake. Bathroom was not great.

I booked for three nights but left after two. It was very basic budget accommodation and that was fine - financially it was a good deal. However, the hotel is situated on Bathurst Street, which is one of the city's traffic sewers. The windows are originals and provide no protection from noise. Hence I was awoken by very loud trucks both mornings at 4 am and could not go back to sleep. There should be a curfew on the wretched things but that's another story. The hotel should, however, provide ear plugs. I went elsewhere for my final night in the city.

Staff were friendly and prompt with my check in.

This particular establishment does not live up to the reviews. The accommodation was presented well, however that's where the praise ends. Due to being located on a major thoroughfare, the road noise was terrible. There was no fan or aircon in the room to circulate any air, and the only way to allow air circulation was to prop the window open a bit. Whether the window was open or closed, the noise of traffic made it impossible to sleep. The walls were very thin, enabling us to hear the conversations and noise from the adjoining room. While very clean, the bathroom severely lacked any room with a full size tub and toilet taking up the majority of this small space, hence the vanity was located in the bedroom, which was also limited in space, with luggage taking up a reasonable amount of any space left. Although booked for 2 nights, we cancelled the 2nd night. We called the number in reception and left a message. We received no call back so we called in later that day and spoke to the receptionist and left info for the manager to call us to get a reimbursement for the 2nd night, as we could not stay there again. As of today (1 week later) we still have had no reply from management. Would not recommend this Hotel.

Good location
