Well-maintained shared bathrooms
While you do have to share bathrooms here, you won't find it a bother once you see the great condition they are in. The sleek designs are kept in tip-top shape, as they are cleaned on a daily basis and are always restocked with the essentials.
positive:
Awesome location to explore
There are a ton of activities to do when staying at this hotel. There is so much around you. Riverdale, a beautiful park, a library, and Leslieville are all within walking distance.
positive:
Great places to eat close by
Though this hotel is not in the centre of town, you still have plenty of places to pick from when it comes to meals. The street outside of the hotel is peppered with eateries, with a large diversity in choices.
Negative Reviews
negative:
No free parking at this hotel
If you are bringing your car with you, you will be on your own for parking. There is not a parking lot at this hotel, which means you will likely have to pay elsewhere to store your vehicle there.
negative:
Extremely thin hallways here
As you move around the hotel, you will notice immediately how thin the hallways are. In fact, hardly two people can fit in at a time, so bringing your luggage in and out might cause some issues.
negative:
Mattresses are incredibly old
Unfortunately, you won't get a comfortable mattress at this hotel. The beds are so old, too; you can feel the springs poking through the mattress and onto your skin.
