Convenient, easy parking; clean. Only drawback is that soundproofing is not very good - can hear people in other units.

Great staff... had second thoughts due to external appearance, like Motel style; however, rooms were all updated and quite comfortable. Friendly staff. Best Shwarma in town across the street: the Shwarma Palace.

The property was a little old. The surroundings are very loud. You cant get a decent sleep since you can hear a loud noise from the neighboring houses until morning

It is a great value for a hotel in the middle of downtown. It is clean, the staff is friendly, amenities are available, many restaurants steps away, convenience stores and groceries nearby. The plus value for this hotel is the free parking. Many reviews mentioned bedbugs, which we fortunately did not experience. There seems to be long term customers staying here but that does not bother us. We have a room upstairs, facing the parking lot, which is quiet. The packed breakfast is ok — still need to supplement with something else. The unhoused are indeed around the area: coming from downtown Toronto it is not something too surprising The hotel has a 90s motel vibe which is endearing, although the furnishings may need a revamp. It is a good no frills hotel overall.

The room is not excellent, but it is neat and clean. In an emergency, we could stay for one night, but with a family it’s very difficult—especially in winter, in the parking area.

Old & worn out. Continental breakfast was a paper bag with a vanilla yogurt, a small blueberry muffin and an apple juice box.

The walls are not at all sound proof. We could here our neighbours talking at a normal volume in the next room and we got to listen to their baby cry all night long too (not their fault. That's what babes do sometimes). To top things off...There was no breakfast on Sunday morning as advertised.
