Short visit due to snow storm - great experience
I booked one night at The Rex to avoid commuting during a snow storm. The property was very close to my office and affordable. Staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The live jazz was a nice treat. The room was small and minimal but clean and comfortable. Would stay again and have recommended to others.

Just a bed for the night.
I needed a cheap room for the night and this one came out on top. I didn't read the full description about it being a shared bathroom but nonetheless it actually provided a bed for the night, which is Iall I desired!
I arrived after the biggest Snow Storm in a few years and the building only has single glazed windows. An Electric Heater was provided, but the room was ice cold on arrival.

Great service in an old building
Although I checked in around 11:30 p.m. and the reception was closed, I was glad there were still employees who took care of me once I rang the bell at the front door. The room was clean and the bed has a good width. However, the pillows are way too hard and they are uncomfortable. Lastly, the soundproofing between units and the streets is disappointing given how old the building is. For instance, if emergency vehicles are blaring their sirens on Queen Street West, you will hear them and will not be able to sleep.
