Check in was a little strange, room was clean but way too hot and there was no thermostat to be able to turn the heat down. It was so got we were sweating like crazy and had to leave earlier than we wanted to because it was too got and dry. Ended up with a nose bleed.

2nd time staying here and this place is great. The staff is all knowledgeable and kind. Is it a 5 star hotel? Not necessarily but it’s trustworthy, clean, and i’ve never had an issue. Close by to a lot of food places and convenience stores. The room itself is all we need. Free wifi, Heat, and it’s private. If you need a place to stay without hidden fees come here.

Liked: Cleanliness
Worked perfectly for me. I had a single room in the building a few doors down. Simple, yet clean, and a small kitchenette if that is a need. Comfy bed and pillows. My single room had a double bed, so it may work for a couple. A great base to set up camp , and explore that Dundas West neighborhood in Toronto with all the local eateries close by, etc. Price was excellent for accoms in Toronto these days. On my radar for a spring / summer trip down the line. Quiet at night as well as a key system only lets those staying there access the building. The value is exceptional 👍

The staff were nice when we checked in/out. The place was hard to find - no signs, just a door leading to a hallway. This isn’t a great hotel, it’s just a place to sleep, there are no amenities - no coffee, no ice machine, no shampoo, the sink clogged, the beds were hard and there were scuffs and wear everywhere. If you just need a place to crash, no complaints, it’s that. It was clean, there were towels, and the wifi worked.

Location was the best part. Comfortable bed and great shower. Lots of city and road noise. Bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Very clean and safe for a budget hotel.

The place looks new and still getting up to par. It is nit too expensive, but you gotta be ready to make some concessions. If you're looking for luxury, this ain't for you.

I was super tired after a red eye so they had the room ready for me early which was really nice. The room I stayed in really needed an upgrade and a good clean. The area has fast food and smaller restaurants, I saw quite a few homeless around, but I never felt unsafe.
