We arrived in Toronto at 1630, to hot humidity and heavy rain. Taxi (and Uber) Farr from Union station was nearly 50 dollars due to the time I guess. We had chosen to abandon dinner up the CN tower due to the rain and saving our luggage from getting soaked. The room was well presented, if small, in what appeared to me to have previously been a hostel, but I may be mistaken. I was told that the 1st floor had been renovated for air bnb rentals.
Compared to downtown hotel rates we paid less than half prices quoted on those hotel sites. So good value. Breakfast was not great but sufficed. Unfortunately for us the weather remained awful and we chose to head to the airport early the next day and collect our rental car. Hence we will need to visit Toronto again.
I would stay here again because of its value compared to alternatives.
