the stay in itself was ok it was extremely quiet in my opinion there should be some vital instructions in the room like how to access the streetcar, the fare requirement, in case of emergency what is the plan, a street map, where is the garbage disposal. The vetting itself was self-reassuring and is a good thing, but I was disappointed to find the door in the basement leading to the yard always open with a door stopper all day and night, then to receive a notice informing me "if any theft occur Canal Express will not be responsible" why is that door always open? I never encounter a soul in the premises I do find the cleaning fee excessive for a studio since to have the linen change is an extra fee. If the room is rented to two people, it is normal to use the desk as a table to eat but unfortunately it was one chair so one sits the other stand
