Pros:

When I showed up to the hotel, there was illicit activity in the rear of the hotel. I didn't believe that it was the right place. I did not stay and ordered the uber to leave as quickly as possible. The surrounding neighborhood is a safety risk

Horrific!
Pros:

Location that’s it. Hideous atmosphere in front of the building. The building appears to be part “hotel” and part crack house. Looks like lots of addicts are either housed there or are hanging around outside. Awful!

Cons:

Everything except the location AND it’s been two months and they still have not returned my $200 security deposit. Although I’m not surprised. This property should NOT be listed on a site like Booking.com It’s absolutely the worst place I have ever stayed in my 72 years and I’ve stayed in a lot of places all over the U.S. and Canada. This property should closed by the city of Toronto immediately!!

Due giorni a Toronto
Pros:

La posizione, lo staff molto gentile e disponibile. Taxi da areoporto ad hotel incluso nella tariffa.

Cons:

Struttura molto vecchia e camere molto basic. Bagno piccolo e doccia con getto non copioso per il calcare. L'area è frequentata da senza tetto e gente che dorme vicino l'entrata dell'hotel. Prezzo decisamente troppo alto per i servizi offerti.

Pros:

La stanza è buona per il prezzo.. sono stato bene anche se solo per una notte

Cons:

La posizione è eccellente ma ci sono soggetti ambigui nelle zone del parco adiacente. Non ho avuto problemi ma penso fossero drogati

NO-GO!
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

This is not a hotel, it’s a homeless shelter. I’m not sure why Booking is allowing this place to be rented. There were multiple drug users outside, and a guy literally shot up and nodded off in front of me. I didn’t even make it inside.
