Great little no-frills hotel in a good location downtown. Room had a sink but shared bathroom/shower which was clean and did the trick. Easy check in with the front desk, which closes at 11pm, so check-in is no later than 11pm, which was told to me in welcome email. Near subway, city hall, queen West, walkable to Skydome, Union station, arena, etc. Attached bar is a cool little place that has live jazz every night!
