If you’re looking for a clean and easy place to just lay your head down, this was perfect. Amazing location; streetcar stop right outside the entrance, and a public parking garage only 2 blocks away. Staff was great. Only downside I had was the AC was struggling, but other than that, loved it. Will absolutely come back the next time I come to Toronto.

Right on a main transit line, beds weren’t the comfiest, but you get what you pay for, you have these fobs that you need to use to get into your room, into the bathrooms, into the building, and elevators, they’re on a keychain, so just keep that in mind you’ll have to hold those, the rooms were pretty spacious though

I came to Toronto for a concert and decided to add on an art exhibition.I knew that I would not be spending much time in my room.The room was small and had desk,chair,two single beds and a wardrobe.The washroom/toilet was down the corridor.Very good value for money.The bed I used was comfortable.The other not so.The parking is about a block away.I would go again.I can understand that some people would want to spend more together more.
