Have stayed here now twice and unfortunately, both times have been just so-so. The facility is in good condition with a nice staff. However, the hotel rooms themselves are very low quality compared with other types of hotels in this category and in the same area.
The restaurant is passable, but don't expect too much. Breakfast buffet is just slightly better than a self-serve continental breakfast at most other places. I recommend you order something off of the menu. The other downside of this property is that there are not real nicer dining options in the immediate area.
What is the most disappointing thing are the rooms, and in particular the size of the bathroom and the heating/AC in the rooms. I am a Starwood Preferred Gold member, and I got one of the SPG rooms, so I would think I had the best this property had to offer. The bathroom is very, very small and it almost requires you to step over the toilet to get to the shower to turn the faucets on.
As for the heating/AC system, it is an old style through the wall unit (the ones that you'll find in most budget hotels) that they've retrofitted with a central thermostat. The problem is that on any auto setting the thing turns on and off constantly all night. Those wall units are loud, and so when it turns back on, you get woken up. I ended up turning it to constant on mode and just got used to the running motor.
If these things don't bug you, then the hotel is generally quiet in comparison to other by the airport hotels that are near the end of the runways.
Room Tip: Ask for a room on the back side of the hotel for less airport noise. Generally it isn't a probl...

Dear Guest,
Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay with us and appreciate your loyalty to Starwood Hotels and Resorts.
I am quite disappointed to read your comments regarding our breakfast. The full breakfast buffet option includes so much more that just a continental selection. Not only does our guests have the choice of sizzling bacon, hot eggs, sausage plus other hot items, we offer an omelet station where our chef personally makes your eggs to order!
Our guest rooms are very similar in size to other hotels around Toronto Airport and many of us have the traditional wall mounted HVAC units. We do apologize if this unit disturbed your sleep. I would strongly encourage you to have informed us during your stay so that we could have checked to see if this unit was operating correctly. Please contact me personally with your room number.
Once again, thank you for your feedback and continued loyalty to our brand.
Jason
