Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms have a very cool decor with a breathtaking view, and it's such a great deal for the price.
The hotel offers a unique touch of having our own records in the mini bar fridge with a breathtaking view for less money. However, the rooms are located right in front of other people's windows, which can be a privacy concern.
The hotel is ideally located in a nice area of Toronto next to the campus but tucked in a dark side alley with minimal signage. The rooms have a very cool decor with a queen bed but are right in front of other people's windows. The service is attentive, especially by bell staff, and there are options for tours and ticket assistance. The dining includes a few small options to choose from and offers grilled seafood. The facilities are good but could use some improvements. Overall, the location is close enough to the center of Toronto, making it convenient for travelers.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms provide views for a good price but lack privacy due to their positioning, the loud AC may disrupt your peace. The service stands out with helpful bell staff and wedding services available, but the tours assistance could be better managed. The location might be tricky to find but is nestled within a vibrant area of Toronto, above a lively music venue. Dining options are limited, yet the warm bread adds a nice touch. Overall, the facilities are decent, making it a suitable choice for a stay with some trade-offs.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the rooms provided a breathtaking view at a reasonable price but were oddly positioned right in front of other people's windows. I appreciated the nice touch of having our own records in the mini bar fridge. However, on the flip side, the location was not ideal, being in a dark side alley with minimal signage. The service was decent with helpful bell staff/porter and wedding services available, but there were limitations in terms of tours/ticket assistance. Dining options were limited to a few small choices, although they included French fries. Overall, the facilities were standard, offering a comfortable stay but nothing exceptional.
