| - We checked into the Delta Chelsea on a thursday afternoon around 4. The lobby of this place looks much like a small train station, it was really busy with lots of people running around and a dark lighting or the area (and nowhere to sit down). The check-in staff were reasonably good and upgraded us to a nicer room on a higher floor (15th floor). The hotel is gigantic with something like 3 or 4 sets of elevators, so finding our room was a bit of a challenge. When we got to our room however, the cleaning staff was still in the process of cleaning. We went downstairs to see if we can get a difference room. The front desk was good at correcting their mistake and gave us another room on the 12th floor (after spending 15mins on the computer and phone) but to make up for the poor planning on their part we got 2 days of complimentary parking (which is $29 a day...)
The room itself is just so-so, the carpet is old and the washroom is small (but relatively clean). The beds were comfortable, however, it was very weird walking into the room and the first thing you see is little lumps on your bed...(the lumps were just from the comforter, which was naturally shaped that way...weird) We did have a gigantic 43" LG flat screen tv in the room, but unfortunately, there is no wireless internet in the rooms and wired is something like $14 a day. I was told that there is free wifi in the lobby, but never got a chance to use it.
Overall, the Delta Chelsea is just another hotel where you can spend the night, but it is located in a really busy and active location in Toronto (on Gerrard just off or Yonge) although at night, it was still very quiet in the room.
