Stayed there recently, used a TSU and ended up with a corner suite. I don't know what y'all are griping about, I thought the room was very nice, high-end fit and finish, everything worked and was intuitive. For a North American hotel of any caliber, at the top end of nice. Has the hushed feel of the PH Washington, which I really like. Somewhat "related" to the PHNY, which has excellent hard product, weak service. Service here, on the other hand, was on point, warm, and efficient. I usually stay at the FS down the street, but this was 100 loons cheaper and came with the suite upgrade, so it was a nice deal. Very satisfied, and I am one picky crank when it comes to hotels (you can see my general demeanor in the PHNY thread).

I also stayed recently and thought that overall it was pretty good. I was upgraded to a corner suite, which was a true suite and not simply two regular roons linked together. Yes, the view isn't too great, but that is probably the biggest downside to the hotel outside of it not having a pool. The location is ideal if you want to be close to Yorkville, the University of Toronto or the ROM.

Its not a PTAC unit.. It's a central aircon unit.. But not sure what it's called.. I didn't take a photo myself, but I found a picture from before the renovation where you can see it:
I guess they didn't renovate this part of the rooms as the cost would have been quite expensive..

What room type is this?
ADDED: I realize that this is a pre-renovation room, but to me it looks more comfortable and upscale than the pictures of the new rooms in the property that were posted earlier in this thread. OTOH, I'd replace the table lamps; they look very dated and seem to contrast with the style of the rest of the room.

The downstairs restaurant, Joni (after Joni Mitchell, I assume, as she lives or has a home not very far from there, I was told by people know these kinds of things) is quite good for breakfast, brunch, and afternoon tea/snacks. Did not try dinner, but if it's as good as the rest of the day, it should be pretty solid. I thought overall it was a very fine hotel.

The breakfast downstairs at the Joni is excellent. Unusually, they have Kouign-amann as one of their pastry offerings. They are excellent, possibly better than the ones at the PH Vendome (which I hear doesn't have them for the breakfast buffet anymore).

If you are booking a paid rate with Prive I believe the 100USD credit can be used for parking charges

It's $70 cad per night for parking, and they have EV charging as well. It would be nice if they updated the website, as I was surprised by the charge.

There is a city run lot at 9 Bedford that permits overnight parking
