This is a VERY DATED hotel and the room they put me in was directly above the noisy bar/nightclub which was not great in the middle of the night when I wanted to sleep. The staff was kind and helpful but this place needs to be torn down and replaced or a gut remodel at the least. Can’t believe how expensive it was for the condition it’s in.

I guess there is a beach view but our view was the parking lot. The hotel was nice and clean and our room had a refrigerator. We were in Toronto over night-when I booked with Expedia I thought I was getting a room close to the port where we could catch our cruise but I was mistaken-it was a 10 min. ride. Seems like a great hotel in Toronto but I wasn't in the city long enough to see it's a good local place to stay,

We liked the location, it was an easy and pleasant bike ride to Stanley Park & very close to a lot of trails by the water. The room had some updates, but smelled like cigarette smoke. It was a bit difficult for us to find the parking garage, we had to circle around a couple of times in traffic before we called and they provided instructions.
