Reviewed Nov 28, 2025I liked that it was quiet throughout the house and when I asked them to wash our dirty clothes, they did it and returned the clean clothes that day.
It was my first time in Toronto and I didn't know that our apartment would be in an area with homeless people, it was scary. Part of the faucet in the bathroom was falling off, the bed was made of two mattresses and it was uncomfortable to sleep on, the dust was not wiped off in many places.

Some of the windows were lacking blinds to block out light in the morning. Nice big bath but no water flowing to it. Area felt a bit sketchy, maybe not great for families with children.

Reviewed Oct 23, 2025The property is at a great location, I could walk to pretty everywhere in the downtown area. My room and the common area are super clean and well maintained. Both kitchens are also well equipped. Check in and out were super easy. The host was really prompt in responding to my inquiries and provided clear instructions throughout. Overall a great stay.
I had the back room downstairs so when other guests were using the kitchen quite late at night, the door of the inner room would make a sudden crack sound and wake me up. Maybe some door gap cushion would help? It's a minor issue really. I understand it is a vintage house and I could tell the other guests were considerate and tried to make as little noise as possible.

Reviewed Oct 23, 2025Good location for downtown activities.
The bathroom mirror, sink and cup were dirty. The lighting was not good for reading in bed. The place could use a couple of bedside tables with lamps. Nothing much to be done about the fact that there were several people smoking crack and some evidence of drug use around the property. There was a crack pipe on the handle of the parking gate.

Aunque no tiene nada que ver con el propio alojamiento, el barrio no es el más pintoresco. De noche hay drogodependientes, aunque es verdad que son inofensivos. No obstante una noche al llevar había una persona en la puerta de acceso a la casa. En cuanto a la habitación, se veía en general limpio pero en algún sitio polvo acumulado.

Reviewed Oct 7, 2025In der ersten Nacht bekamen wir ein Zimmer, aber das kleine Bad war ausserhalb. Zwischen öffentlicher Küche und Eingang. Das Zimmer hatte nur Tagvorhänge und war die ganze Nacht hell. Wenn im Zimmer Licht brannte, konnte man durch die Glastüre bzw. den Vorhang direkt aufs Bett sehen. Kleiderhaken oder Nachttischchen fehlten. Keine Klimaanlage, und nur ein Fenster liess sich öffnen. Am anderen Tag hatten wir das Dachzimmer erhalten, sonst wären wir ausgezogen. Dieses entsprach unserer Vorstellung. Aber auch im Dachzimmer fehlte es an vielem, dass eigentlich Standard sein sollte.

Une annonce qui mentionne des places de parking disponibles, alors qu'il y en a seulement 2 pour 7 logements, dans une ville où les parkings sont très chers et pas de place gratuite. Un quartier très très mal fréquenté (énormément de toxicomanes). Dans l'ensemble, la propreté n'était pas top. Stores manquant ou défectueux, donc réveillés très tôt avec le jour. Le loquet de la porte de notre chambre étant placé du mauvais sens, il est possible de l'ouvrir même quand celle-ci est verrouillée.

Okolica jest bezpieczna, choć na rogu ulicy, gdzie położony jest dom można spotkać wieczorem osoby, które nie miały szczęścia w życiu. Przywitają się z tobą i tyle. Jednak kobiety podróżujące samotnie i nieprzyzwyczajone do nocnych spotkań tego rodzaju mogą czuć się lekko niekomfortowo.

Reviewed Sep 16, 2025Der vorgängige Kontakt war freundlich und die nötigen Infos für den Check-in kamen rechtzeitig und verständlich und man ist zeitlich nicht gebunden. Die Lage ist nicht schlecht, ich habe alles zu Fuss gemacht und nicht auf die ÖV-Anbindung geachtet, aber man kommt innert einiger Minuten in belebte Gegenden mit Restaurants, Bars und Läden und zur Union station in ca. 30 min. Das Haus ist liebevoll und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Das Bett war sehr bequem und das Zimmer sehr geräumig. Bei Check-out kann man einfach gehen ohne aufwendige Prozesse.
Es war das hellhörigste Haus das mir je begegnet ist. Die überaus lauten Personen im Stock über mir gaben den Eindruck, eine Abbruchparty zu feiern und dabei ein Mikrofon hinzuhalten. Als die Dusche benutzt wurde, ging ich erschrocken zum Fenster, weil ich dachte, das Gewitter des Jahres prassle auf ein Blechdach über mir, aber draussen regnete es nicht. Mit ausreichend Silikon in den Ohren ging das Schlafen aber trotzdem gut. Das Lavabo im Badezimmer lief nicht ab.
