Room looked awesome

Radisson Blu Toronto Downtown
staff was amazing, room was spotless. I had a small problem with the shower due to the water from the shower reaching the dry floor but besides that it was absolutely great. Definitely will go again.

Fairmont Royal York
Very nice spot but the parking is outrageously expensive. $75 plus tip for overnight??? It is $12 a short walk down the road. Makes you feel taken advantage of.
