We stayed Labor Day weekend, and arrived pretty late for check in. From the minute we arrived, everyone was extremely nice and helpful. The hotel was extremely convenient to attractions we wanted to visit, including St. Lawrence Market and the Hockey Hall of Fame. If you’re in the area, stop looking and book this property. You won’t be disappointed.

Excellent service from reception, particularly Ravish and in housekeeping, Rowena. The breakfast service was very good and the staff were very efficient. We stayed 10 nights and could not have had a better location to explore the city! We’ll certainly return and would highly recommend! Thank you to the whole team!

The location is excellent, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The overall experience was very positive. The only suggestion for improvement would be to enhance the breakfast offering by including an omelette station, non-dairy milk options, a selection of cheeses, and cold cuts.

I was very impressed with the cleanliness and condition of this hotel. It's a convenient location and is walking distance to many things downtown, but I would be cautious walking in that area after dark specifically. An excellent stay though and will likely stay again!

Great hotel in a central location.

It was great, really well located. Breakfast was good with easy access to the trams and buses. Mystic Muffin across the street has awesome cakes and breakfast. Only minor is the area near the hotel felt a little unsafe with some 'characters' about. It wouldnt usually bother me but we were travelling with children. A Toronto issue not the hotel. Parking is a little expensive at $35 a night. You need to check in first for access. The spaces are a little tight.
