They were doing some work on one of the elevators but that was not a problem. The room was small but fine. It is well located near Queen Street station and a great place to use as a base for visiting the city.

Room was clean and refurbished. The refurbished rooms were still quite narrow and the room seemed very small. The hotel is undergoing a refurbishment so amenities are not all there yet. Breakfast was nice.
