Guest sentiment

• Cleanliness9.2

  Multiple guests explicitly praised how very clean the rooms were ("very clean", "Sehr sauber"). Housekeeping and room cleanliness are consistently noted as a strong point.

• Service9.0

  Staff described as friendly and lovely in several reviews; check-in/out worked well. Minor service issues mentioned (staff not always outgoing, breakfast understaffed, a late-checkout knock), but overall service sentiment is positive.

• Location8.6

  Location on Queen Street is praised for vibe and access to downtown activities, but multiple guests complained about significant street/train noise and some noted it can be a longer transit ride to certain tourist sights.

• Room Quality8.3

  Beds and pillows repeatedly called very comfortable; rooms are often described as small with limited storage and older windows/AC that can be noisy, which lowers the room-quality score slightly.

• Amenities8.8

  Notable character amenities (unique old crank elevator, bar, restaurant, breakfast) are appreciated. Some amenities drawbacks reported (bar closing early, noisy ventilation), but overall amenities are a strong feature.

• Value for Money6.5

  Several guests explicitly said it was not good value for money and that the property looks better in photos than in person; combined with small rooms and noise issues this is the weakest area.

• Food and Beverage9.4

  Breakfast items were repeatedly described as delicious (though the menu is small) and the bar was noted as lively when open. Main negatives were understaffed breakfast service and occasional early bar closing.

• Overall Experience9.0

  Overall reviewers describe a very enjoyable, characterful hotel with great design, comfy beds and friendly staff. Noise, small rooms and some service/staffing hiccups tempered but did not outweigh the generally positive experience.

Guest reviews

It's very clean and the elevator is quite unique. The bed and pillows are very comfortable, like really. If not the noise, I'd sleep great.

It's not good value for money and looks much better in the photos. Very noisy, no soundproof whatsoever. The room is quite small. The noise comes from the street and within the hotel. There is a bar and restaurant, so if they have a party, you'll have to wait until it stops. It's at the crossroads, so expect cars honking, streetcars stopping and announcing stops, assisted crossing signals beeping, and occasional screaming from people on the street passing by. It's Queen Street in Toronto, it's busy day and night. Also it's quite far from all touristy things if you're in Toronto for that, so expect to spend like 40 min in a streetcar one way if you want to see the CN tower and the downtown.

The location…yes there’s a tramway im front of the hotel but it takes depending on traffic 20-35min eben though it’s just about 2.5km. The rooms are small. Though bed is big and comfy. Staff is nice but not outgoing nice. No hello when entering the hotel from the reception. I bought a late check out at 1pm (that’s okay-ish) but 10min past 1pm they already knocked on my door

They have an old crank elevator that was nice to experience, and all the staff were friendly. I didn’t get to check it out but they also had a bar and it seemed pretty lively.

It was tough getting to bed the one night but there are reviews mentioning bringing headphones for sleep.

Es ist ein cooles, stylisches Hotel.. wirklich schön, mit gemütlichen Zimmern, einem tollen, alten Aufzug. Sehr sauber und freundliches Personal ☺️
