This was a handy little hotel in the heart of Toronto. The room was clean but rather no frills. The only issue we had was the sliding door to the bathroom was difficult to close, which we reported on our way out. We were very satisfied with the room for the price.

Central location within walking distance of downtown tourist areas, and shops. No elevators, and toilet facilities somewhat dated. Rooms clean and Staff very attentive but meal times might benefit from being extended. If you like old style charm this is ideal, perhaps having more tourist info such as taxi numbers or bus maps would help.
