What I liked: - Check-in by texto with doors codes - Large free space in the room - A turn table instead of a TV - Shampoo and shower gl that smell sooo good - A lot of charging stations for my car nearby. Not at the hotel, but 2 mins walk is the next best thing !

An amazing stay! The staff were so helpful and friendly. The surrounding area is very cool and I particularly the street art. Close to several interesting attractions but also great to walk around. The room was stunning, really comfortable and so clean. Check in and out was efficient and so easy. You feel really safe in and around the accommodation. I couldn’t recommend enough!

The staff went above and beyond to celebrate our child's birthday. They were thoughtful and really paid attention to every detail to make us at home and to feel really celebrated. We cannot wait to go back! It's our favorite hotel by far.

Really cool hotel. Came for a night with my teenagers and got to teach them how to use a record player that was in the room. Loved the vibe of the hotel. Bathrooms are nice. I don’t have any complaints.

I loved the industrial design of the room, bed and pillows very comfortable. I was lucky and got a room with the best view of the CN tower that I enjoyed day and night looking out the large windows. Check in and out and contact with property manager was very easy. I loved the Grown Alchemist products and the top quality speaker to listen to my favorite music. The AC was kind of loud and there was a learning curve on how to adjust it. Recommend to bring flip flops as the bathroom with the toilet are connected in one space. The record player was not functional but a nice touch. There is no TV in the room but I did not mind. I would choose it again for my next visit to Toronto. Breakfast options at the adjacent coffee spot are not good (coffee is good). The bar is also very nice. There are tons of restaurants and amenities in walking distance. Loved my stay !
