“This hotel distinguishes itself as Canada's first Moxy, aiming for a vibrant social hub with its integrated bar and front desk; the rooms focus on clever space-saving designs, though some might find them compact. It's a playful spot in downtown Halifax, near attractions and nightlife, though I think it's best suited for those who prioritize a lively atmosphere over quiet luxury.”
