Stayed at the Rex one night to attenda concert. Perfect location to walk to Scotiabank arena and felt safe walking late at night. Room was basic but comfortable. Shared bathrooms were clean and stocked. Free breakfast included coffe and toast with pb and j but they also had a menu if you wanted something more. Good price for downtown Toronto.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

Room was clean, no elevator (not something you should expect in an old building though, so no faults there). The furniture was old and the beds were uncomfortable. Very, very small shower, both elbows were bumping walls while washing my hair. AC was very loud and there was no fridge. Parking was close by for cheap. Walking distance to everything we went to It’s in a great neighborhood, the staff was friendly and it’s a great price. Would probably stay again if I was in the city.
