This is a dorm room, plain and simple. A marvelous price for a short summer stay in downtown Toronto if you're ok with simple, and with student neighbors. It was quiet during my visit. There is access to a large, all-gender bathroom down the hall with many sinks, toilet stalls, and shower stalls. Parking in a U of T garage is available 2 blocks away, costs about $30 overnight. One must sign up online, instructions are given at check in.

Room was bare concrete, it felt kind of a hospital room somehow but it was cozy and clean thou, just to spend the night or if you are a student a study place, very student oriented. Parking on the street is pay parking and you have to go about 3-4 blocks to park overnight until 6:00 am do parking was a bit complicated, Be aware, this is a different experience from a regular hotel.

Property as described, a University dorm! Basic, shower unit across the hall. Offers good value. Great if you are staying for one or two nights. Will remind those who went to University of days gone by.

Went for a medical appointment at TGH and it was within walking distance to the room. Staff were courteous and helpful. Since the rooms are not available until after 3pm, I was able to drop off my luggage in a secure area, free of charge. Great location.

My stay was okay, the check-in was simple and the staff were lovely. The room was decent, but the amenities and facilities were just okay-- just what you would expect from a student residence hall. Just one pillow on the bed and the towel provided was disappointing. Bed was nice a firm,though, and having AC in the room and hallways for the hot Toronto summer was great.

It is overall great, except the mattress was incredibly uncomfortable. It could just be the bed in the room I stayed in though. Otherwise I was happy with the stay and the staff.

The washroom is too far from the room for a traveller. It is a student residence and I had a good rest overall.
