You shouldn't delay booking accomodations. Since December, there has been a significant number of hotels showing no available rooms for that weekend. It's the first long weekend of the summer season (Monday is a holiday), and with the size of the psych convention, there is a lot of pressure on available lodgings.
Some of the universities (U of T, Ryerson) might have residence rooms open for the summer period.

The last couple of times I've been to Toronto, I tried to look at the city as if I was doing the tourist thing, but that's not much help for finding a good place to meet. I know my way around the city quite thoroughly, but not much of anything about what's hot and what's not.
I welcome any suggestions about how to get something set up. Does anyone know a good place in downtown Toronto?
