We will be staying at The Strathcona Hotel in Downtown Toronto during our 48 hours in the city. To be brutally honest, it wasn't our first choice (nor second) but we like the centralized location near Union Station. The Hockey Hall of Fame is just a couple of blocks away.
The hotel lobby which we never got to use, was a pretty spacious one. It's just a short walk to the financial centre from the entrance, making it a fairly decent choice for business travelers.
Our room was a very small one. They could barely fit two single beds in and we had to work really hard to get our luggage into the room. It almost felt like we're in one of those micro hotels in Japan.
To give you an idea how little space there was in the room - They had no place for a television that the only way to fit it in was to mount it onto the wall (the TV was almost touching the door of the cabinet!). And see how tiny the bench was (underneath the window)!
The bathroom was a pretty standard one. Not much to report there.
Despite all the bad things I had to say about the hotel, I thought its location was nearly perfect. It's in the heart of a very busy part of Downtown Toronto.
It is just walking distance away from a lot of different places including Roger's Place (and by the way, there's a hockey game tonite I think).

If not for our decision to stay here, I probably won't have the chance to check out the Hockey Hall of Fame, which is really a must for all hockey fans.
