The Alexandra Hotel

It was great value and we were able to park at the hotel which was great. It had everything we needed for the night. Had the air conditioner not been a very old one and click and bang all night, it would have been a great night!

Liked: The price was great.
Disliked: The air conditioner was loud and banged - it kept us up most of the night.

What an amazing hotel. Comes with cutlery and plated plus a near full kitchen. Flat screen TV's so you can plug a computer or gaming console in, and openable windows. Such a perfect little place.

Liked: The amazing staff and comfy beds.
Disliked: None.

This wasn't a 5 star luxury hotel, but I didn't expect it to be. The woman who was running the place was really friendly and helpful. The room was small, but besides a bed and a bathroom also included a stove top, a microwave, a fridge, a kitchen sink, a desk, a TV, a couch, and a window AC. What else could you want? In the mornings there was a pile of complimentary newspapers by the elevator. Parking was $5 a day, but once there we were able to leave the car and just walk everywhere. The area felt safe enough - though I was walking everywhere with my husband - if I was alone, I may have been a little wary late at night. I was pleasantly surprised and would stay here again.

Liked: Friendly staff, free wifi, mini-kitchen.

Thoroughly decent place, although it...

Liked: The room is well set-up, although some years ago. There is everything necessary and more, including to cook for yourself which is handy.
Disliked: The location doesn't feel as safe as it actually is, if you're nervous about that sort of thing.

Bad

Good

Liked: Clean rooms!
Disliked: There seemed to be homeless people always around the entry of the building or perhaps they lived in the building too.

Very good

Fast but expensive

Liked: Clean room
Disliked: Bad neighbors couldn’t be. Changed

Good location and value, but...

Liked: Our go to hotel when we need to stay in downtown Toronto. Easy walk (20-30 minutes) to all downtown Toronto theaters, restaurants and office towers. Compact but comfortable room with queen and single bed and complete kitchenette (fridge, stove, microwave, pots and pans, dishes and utencils). Large outdoor parking lot, $20 a day. Overall an amazing value for downtown Toronto hotel.
Disliked: Portion of hotel used by city as shelter, so some less fortunate souls enjoying fresh air around entrance, but all were polite and respectful. Some late night noise, sirens and shouting, typical for big city. Biggest problem for us was extremely weak wifi signal. Not even strong enough to open email messages, let alone do any streaming.

I enjoyed my stay

Liked: The location was good. Close to many stores, restaurants, transit. The location after midnight is a little uncomfortable but that is because as a women I was travelling solo. They do have security. The room was clean and a great size. There was a kitchenette which is great for longer stays. I liked how there was laundry on my floor and a I think it was a good price $4 total. I liked the staff they were really friendly. While I was waiting for a room they held onto my bags so I could walk around without them.
Disliked: The first room I stayed in didn't have those bar of soaps, shampoo/conditioner. The second room I stay in had those. My rooms faced the parking lot so I could hear people talk if they are talking too loud.

The location in th city...

Liked: Staff were friendly and room was clean and comfortable
Disliked: There were people hanging around the entrance of the building who were questionable. A guy approached me and asked if I would deposit money in his bank account and he would give me cash...

The hotel is easy to...

Liked: The staff was kind all the time.
Disliked: Nothing by the staff.
