Amazing staff service! Location is right along Bloor St. with plenty to do! No amenities except for the bar and cafe in the lobby, otherwise amazing room perfect for what I needed which was a place to wind down after a long day of being out.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
What an unexpected delight! I was travelling solo and wasn’t sure exactly what to expect. It’s cozy, staff are delightful and it had the amenities I needed. The bed was comfy, the room was spotless and so quiet for sleeping—what more can you ask for? I had never even been to the neighbourhood before, as I always stay downtown. But there are so many great little places to explore and to grab a bite. I would not hesitate to stay here again!
This is the “Medium” room on the 3rd floor. For folks unaware, there is no elevator. I didn’t need help carrying my bags, but I observed staff offering to help people take their bags upstairs.
Lots of natural light!
I actually used the turntable. What a nice way to relax after a long day.
Very comfy — supportive, and just soft enough.
