Balcony stinks as there are dead cats in the back.

Nice location

Asking me my name when I reserved the room would have avoided all this .

Calm explanation by front desk and alternative suggestions of where to go .

Our apartment turned out to be a half hour walk away from the actual hostel, and this had not been disclosed to us prior. It was a bit irritating as we chose the place specifically because it was nearby our friends’ house.

The location was super convenient.

No overhead light or room lamp in womens dorm. Would appreciate the option of light in the evening.

Convenient Parkdale location with streetcar service right outside the door

Not enought shower and the fridge are full not enough space . The 20 dollars I never getting back you must to put some staff to work in night shift because after 10 pm maybe some people need something .I worked in hostel before there is always a staff during daytime and evenings and nights .

The only things must to irmprove are the shower not enough shower and the second things probably to put some staff working after 10 pm because I gave my card to the staff .I came late it s thruth but I didn t get my 20 dollars back must to improve this point it s very important .The location is easy to go in downtown and take the transportation and go to the groceries is very convenient .

I was told there would only be women in the area I was to be sharing and there was a guy in the room, second, they don't tell you in advance that you have to pay $20 for the key card, and third knowing I am an older woman they only had a top bunk for me to sleep on. So I book out a day early

The fact they had a kitchen to cook in

It was a bit dirty, and the building is outdated. The rooms were hard to find. The fridge in the kitchen needs to get cleaned. The washroom floors were a bit dirty also.

Absolutely great! The bed was super comfy and the location ideal! The neighborhood is amazing also, and the washrooms were good. The stairs are a bit steep and it was dark at times, but I got the rest I needed and the water was warm! They do have free breakfast and the kitchen was alright. A+++

If there is any change in booking or earlier checkout they should return back money on 24 hours checkout notice.

It was nice sharing hostel on great location, near transportation and restaurants everywhere.

Stayed in March 2024

There were no paper towels at any sharing sink. As well there were very few hand soaps at the sinks.

The location is great in terms of street car access to downtown.

Dirty sheets and requested a single bed and ended up in a bunk bed, misleading advertisement

spacious

The room didnt have lockers to put your stuff. Apparently some other rooms do, so check with the reception if that's something you want.

The location is good, a lot of nice restaurants, coffee shops and bars around. The staff was friendly.

The office and the unit are far apart so you have to consider this when booking, especially if you arrive late like myself. The staff was kind, but they did charge me a late check-in fee of CAD 20. On the other hand, they provided complimentary transport to the lodgement despite the late hour. Another drawback is the noise, which can be annoying, especially at night. Since the house has been divided into three small units, there might be some noise from the neighboring guests. Finally, there were some insects in the bathroom, not anything ugly, but even though everything seemed very clean to me, I saw small insects always at night.

The most important feature of this lodgement is the location on Queen St., one of the busiest and most picturesque streets in Toronto. The small apartment has everything you need for a short stay (appliances, cutlery and dishes included). It is well isolated from the cold outside. It has a small AC unit, which is entirely sufficient for the space.

The bathroom was not clean. The same buildup and marks stayed in the shower during my 5 night stayand the caulking had some black mold. The baseboards needed some serious dusting/wipe down and the floor corners were gross too; the dirt build up did not go away during my 5 night stay so clearly no one is doing a decent clean. The ventilation also sucked - I felt like I sweating before I finished changing after coming out of the shower.

The bunk bed was more comfortable than most hostels I've previously stayed in. The hotel had an outdoor area that I enjoyed spending time on in the evenings.

There were mice, which I know is super common in old buildings but it still grossed me out a little.

Very friendly and helpful staff, clean accomodations, and good value for the price.

That the booking didn’t mention the address of this apartment was different than the check in by 2 km! Also the carpet at the top of the stairs is not secure and could easily cause a very bad accident. Also not sure how well the space is cleaned. I felt like there was a layer of grime on everything.

The location was super central. Great neighbourhood.

It was very run down . Needs to be updated

It was in a good location. Staff friendly and helpful

Stayed in September 2023

The staircase area isn't clean. Neither is the bathroom in the room. There were coloured spots on the ceiling and water was occasionally dripping. The matresses are outdated, I was sinking in the middle and I felt the metal spirals poking out. It was also quite hot; there were fans but maybe an ac would be a better solution for the super warm days.

I wasn't sure what to expect since the reviews were very different - some very good, some very bad. I liked the location, the common area and the kitchen. The receptionist was super kind and helpful.

The comfiness of the bed was the best bit.

I wish it had more private rooms or with less people

It was in a good location not too far from Downtown Toronto
