The Hotel Stratford
The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The room was small but very comfortable and clean. Hotel Stratford is central within easy reach of shops, eating places cable cars, buses and the subway station.

6/10 Good

Honestly I had a great time outside of the hotel however during my stay it was extremely inconvenient to have to control my room lighting and fan by remote which was so small. Great restaurant, unique sink however the room lacked central air conditioning and could have atleast used a mini fridge. Only thing that really kept me going was the tap water downstairs and the occasional green tea. Room was also a Tad small so do not plan on sharing above 2 people.

2/10 Poor

Hotel Stratford, despite my advance, confirmed reservation through Expedia, had no room available for me, and instead gave me a room in a "sister" hotel called the Bartlett, which was about a half a block away. It appeared the hotel was undergoing renovations. It was shabby, cramped, with the barest of furnishings. I'm not even sure there was mattress on the bed, it was low to the ground and very firm, like a box spring. The front desk was unmanned, and one accessed the main door, a second security door and the elevator using a room key. When I originally checked in at the Stratford, and they advised of the hotel change, I asked them how much for the room, and they advised me it would be no charge and advised me that they would initiate a refund through Expedia, but that would take sometime to process. It seems like some type of scam... You book one hotel, then when you arrive, the switch you to a lesser property. I stopped back to the Strttford front desk a couple of other times and each time heard them doing the same thing to other customers with reservations. If the Stratford does not request a refund of room charges, I am requesting a refund. I feel that I was mislead and cheated out of the hotel and room that I had originally reserved and booked. Thank you.
