This is a lovely little hotel that is intertwined with a gallery full of gorgeous indigenous art. Additionaly,l there is studio space in the building occupied by Native artists. Each of the rooms features the work of an artist integrated into the furnishings and ornament theme. My room included a cozy private balcony with a view of the lights of the city’s towers. And it’s a 7-8 minute walk to the Rogers Center!

We booked this hotel as it is close to Queen Elizabeth Theater. It is also 3 min walking distance to China town, so we had dimsum next morning. The room was clean, and the staffs were friendly and kind. We recommend this hotel to other travelers also. :)

The property was nice, clean and unique artistic. However, the room was very cold and I could not adjust the temperature to get heater running instead of cold air coming from the vent. I paid for 2 nights and stayed only one. The area felt quite unsafe, as well.

Room was spaceous and nicely decorated with indigenous art. Friendly and helpful staff, nice facilities, comfy bed, conveniently located to transport and walkable distance to town - enjoyed our stay! Free savories and coffee from an indigenous brand were nice and expected - gave a great start into the day. Unfortunately, the hotel is located in a troubled neighbourhood, which can make you feel unease, especially at night. Nonetheless, would stay again.
