Great little boutique in a funky cool part of town. Loved the vibe of the neighborhood. Hotel was very clean and nice. Perfect for our short stay in Toronto. Can't wait to go back.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is located in a vibrant neighborhood packed with ethnic restaurants, book stores, farmers' market, and cafes. It is a short walk to the University of Toronto campus and Casa Loma, a fascinating castle to visit. The room was bright, large, and clean. The room and furniture designs are perfectly matched, both minimalist and traditional Japanese (tatami beds), resulting in an admirably efficient and open atmosphere.

Verified review

4/10 Fair

The issue we had with the property is that the AC was louder than a truck, and there was a light in the parking lot that was on all night shining into our room, the blinds did not block it out. There was a loud Party on the Saturday night (TIFF I assume, I get it ). For a room with very few amenities (no tv) it was discouraging. Staff were helpful.

Great service and nice cafe on first floor. Central location, close to University of Toronto and all the amenities on Bloor Street.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the minimalist look and feel of our room! Clean, bright and spare - in a good way. Staff and guests skew young, but that gives the place nice energy. Surprisingly quiet - well, there was that one night and that one couple ;) No elevator, so might be a challenge for some. Close to Bathurst station, Metro for groceries, Trendy Wash for laundry, and countless cafes and bars.
