• Clean and location close to U of T.
• I asked for a receipt in the AM but did not get it.

“Clean and a rather unassuming hotel for such a posh location. The morning clerk needs some etiquette training in dealing with customers.”

• Location.
• Can't open windows so not good air quality. Fans don't work in bathrooms either.

“Based on location they should look into renovating slightly or even give a fresh paint job, upgrade TV stations, upgrade electrical in bathrooms and do not have bed posts that are so high you can't even watch TV!”

• The location was great.
• Parking not included and expensive, hotel staff harassed us and accused us of stealing.

“The hotel was great when we first arrived, staff was friendly and helpful. The parking is in relatively near the hotel, but very expensive. There were no ice dispensers working which was annoying. We went out to a club and when we came back to the hotel the kitchen staff was making croissants and offered us some, then security called and said we stole croissants and was going to evict us. I would not go back to this hotel.”

• Right in Downtown Toronto, low price.
• Rooms could have been a bit nicer quality.

“Great hotel for someone on a budget who wants to stay right Downtown for a few nights. Wouldn't recommend for a long trip, just one or two nights. Cheapest hotel by far compared to others on the same street, but would have like to see a little more quality in the linens, furnishings, TV, etc. Overall, good hotel with friendly staff.”

• Free wireless internet. The location and they did have some parking available.
• The bed was a bit small and soft, sheets slipped off in night.

“I would stay here again. The internet was free wireless and easy to access. It was in a great location for my purposes. Staff was friendly and a simple but good continental breakfast included.”

• Short cab drive from downtown, close to public transportation and shopping.
• Too close to street, no restaurant, no free parking.

“Smaller low cost hotel in expensive part of town, about 5 miles from downtown Toronto. Plenty of cabs and great subway train station 3 short blocks away. Yorkville section is an upscale section of Toronto, lots of bars and restaurants in area. There is a shopping mall next door to hotel with a Whole Foods inside as well as an upscale eatery and bar. The mall is small and has mostly for upscale shoppers reflecting the neighborhoods economics. There is a university down the street as well as a couple of museums in the area. The Hotel is reasonably price option to the more expensive downtown hotels and is in a great neighborhood, only drawback is that the rooms were small and outdated.”

“The room was surprisingly nice, the bed comfortable with good sheets and pillows. The complimentary coffee and muffins in the morning was a bonus. I will definitely stay here again the next time I¿m in Toronto.”
