The Alexandra Hotel

Its pricey, but for Toronto I guess somewhat reasonable. Check in was easy enough and rooms were surprising clean compared to the rest of the facilities.

Being on the cheaper end, and in a slightly dodgy neighbourhood- some rooms seem rented long term to drug users and for prostitution. Didn't bother me and there were no issues during my stay, but definitely not appropriate place for families and single female travelers. Besides the rooms, rest of hotel is in a pretty uninspiring state.

Toronto is a wonderful city. The Alexandra is close to Kensington Market, Chinatown, Queen Street shopping and streetcar lines. The room had fridge, sink, microwave and a good shower.

It is near a park and a lot of homeless people seem to hang around just outside the hotel. They look menacing but are completely harmless.

The place was dirty, environment unsafe, terrible doors and scary people all over the corridors.

Everything. Very nasty laundry room, where I stained my shirt when trying to iron. You need to refund my money and remove this place from your booking.

The room is well set-up, although some years ago. There is everything necessary and more, including to cook for yourself which is handy.

The location doesn't feel as safe as it actually is, if you're nervous about that sort of thing.

This is more than a hotel, it's also some kind of refuge with sometimes rough looking folks. While some people may be scared to stay in such a place, we were in and out of the place at times of the day and night and it was safe when we were there. This hotel just felt how I felt Toronto was. Looks rough but is nice. The hotel staff is beyond nice, the hotel is near enough to the city centre for that to be its second best asset. The rooms could do with some TLC, sometimes you can smell some fait scent of cigarette coming from the vent and the A/C is very loud but it's a fairly neutral sound. One of the things that make the hotel very attractive is its price. And I think the location/prica ratio was pretty much the best when we booked for what we needed to do in Toronto.

Excellent location! Great price, no frills place to stay in downtown Toronto. Very clean and comfortable.
