Great location
Nothing
Really well connected - tram 2 minutes walk. Bed was very comfortable although no privacy curtains. Laundry facilities - double the price on same street. Wonderful Portuguese cafe 2 minutes away - Bom día.
Here for 5 days, sweeping only appeared to be done once. Lights in one bathroom weren’t working for 3 nights, lock on the other bathroom door non-functional, shower knob essentially hanging on for dear life. Safety was an issue - the front door was often left unlocked meaning anyone could come into reception / communal spaces unchecked. There were keypads on sleeping areas though. Very thin walls meant you could hear footsteps in hall way.
Good
Everything
Accessibility was excellent
Es war kalt und schmutzig. Nur mit kleiner Raum-Heizung war die einzige Wärme. Umwohl gefühlt. Nicht dem Preis wert.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Thanks to then btw.
Some of the rules were lost in the mix for me (my doing), but aside from the no issues.
Nice and affordable place. Nice place to meet people
Not very clean but no bad. It's okay
Location
Unmanned reception… they owe me a key deposit
I like the location, numerous bathrooms/restroom
The presence of rotten seen in the kitchen
More than a bed, the social support is here and it's important. This is a good place.
People snore.
It's clean.
The other patrons make too much noise when they come in, no consideration for other people sleeping. It took me forever to got sleep, I had to tell one close the bathroom door with light flashing out waking us up. No heat, the heaters were on but zero heat came out of it. It make alot noise but no heat.

Accommodation
Utilities aren't properly discussed
In der Küche gibt es kaum Equipment zum Kochen. Keine großen Löffel. Nur eine Pfanne und nur manchmal einen Topf. Die Matratze vom Bett war komplett durchgelegen. Es war Nachts sehr kalt im Zimmer. Ich habe mit meiner Jacke geschlafen weil es keine funktionierende Heizung gab.
2 min walk to the bus station and closeness to shops and restaurants, affordable price if all you need is a bed, nice hot showers
Very steep and high stairs, no hooks/hangers in the bathrooms, i didn't sleep at all because my roommate snored horribly (I guess I was unfortunate).
Good location, easy to find, towels provided, showers good.
We didn’t mind but: to walk to our own private room have to walk through the dorm room of 10 people. Shared their showers & toilets. Felt like we were a hindrance when we arrived. You have to pay more for a key if you want to not be locked out between the hours of 2-6 ( cannot remember compete hours)
Location
Lack of cooking implants
The staff were very helpful
It was dingy and dirty.
Suitable if you are on a budget. You would meet people too.
If you have room mate that is coughing or have any health concerns then you may not enjoy your sleep which is common with hostel like accomodation.
Audio/Visual equipment rates as 'ace-of-spades' level amenity. Spacious, well equipped kitchen; helpful, observant staff. Many separate 3-piece bathrooms; both kitchen and baths supplied enough hot water. Good neighborhood for window shopping and creative businesses.
Too often, guest irresponsibility for leaving bathrooms without remedying the mess made in its use, interfered with later/next users of the facility.
Très bien :) Même que je vais revenir bientôt :) Je prévois venir une semaine après les fêtes.
Best staff and location
Bathroom need to be cleaned
Comfortable. Clean. Parking included.
Didn’t find out that the property was located at a different address than what was listed until arrival/check in. No hooks for towels. No paper towels.
З огляду на відгуки та ціну я не будувала грандіозних очікувань. Але мені сподобались чудове місцезнаходження, в квартирі було все необхідне для проживання, гарне співвідношення ціна/якість, безключовий легкий доступ до квартири, безкоштовне паркування.
Диван-ліжко в номері на чотирьох виявився ліжком, з під якого висувається матрас і фактично друга людина має спати майже на підлозі, це не було зручно для нас, а саме ліжко було затісним для двох, тож це скоріше рахується як одне спальне місце, а не два. Тераса була б чудовим місцем, якби її привели до ладу і замінили чи відремонтували меблі.
How close to everything we were
Nothing really
Gutes Personal. Sehr viele Gäste und die Lage ist garnicht mal so schlecht.
Auf den Fotos sieht das Hostel super gut aus. Aber da es so günstig ist gegenüber den anderen, ist dieses Hostel überlaufen und weißt auch daher starke gebrauchsspuren auf. Eine Renovierung müsste irgendwann vorgenommen werden.
Сподобалося місце розташування, апартаменти просторі та тихі.
Постільна білизна була брудна (на ній навіть було волосся), туалетно-косметичних та мийних засобів було замало.
How close it is to the main city and many foods shops available
The noise after 10pm. People outside were shouting and you can barely hear them cos the place is so quite.but its just like arround 10to12midnight
vue correct sur la tour cn, très bien aménagé et grand pour toronto, même un grand balcon. emplacement de choix
, il manquait serrure sur la porte menant à l’immeuble c’était inquiétant considérant que c’est situé sur une rue très passante. Nous n’avons pas reçu la bonne adresse donc nous avons dû changer quelques plans vu que nous étions à pieds.
Todo fui genial
Nada
The price was really good
Everything is broken, a lot of strange people. I didn't feel safe there. I won't stay there anymore in my life
Sammy was always cheerful
Guests not following simple rules and making staff clean up after them. Guests disrespecting staff
Very reasonably priced. friendly efficient staff & always helpful when asked. Meet people from all around the world so never a dull moment unless you want to just stay in your room LOL 🤡👋🇨🇦
Everything is good for me as long as th wor idea don’t get too high I will continue to stay here when I come to Toronto 👍😊☮️
The pictures were deceiving and didn't show how rundown the property was. Also not in a good area of the city.
Well stocked kitchen. Friendly environment.

Bon employés .
Hôtel très mal entretenu . Pas propre , manque d’amour ?
Good location. Not unclean.
Shabby. Apathetic staff. At least the lady who checked me in was very cold. I only stayed one night so im sure there are other staff who are possessed of a warmer dispostion.
Comfortable bed and clean bathrooms. Nice big rooftop patio. Building is a bit rundown, many things are a bit broken but functional. Staff were friendly though. Easy access to transit and lots of food options in walking distance. Stayed 1 night in 4-bed female dorm.
Great team
Adam the staff was amazing. My room was great, however the stairs entry was really dirty , that’s the first impression. Toilet are clean, however the shower need to be better, especially the drainage has a strong odour. Till I didn’t feel clean after my shower f
As above
No
Neighborhood
acceptable
Ils peuvent faire mieux
La moquette d entrée et dans l escalier est très sale. Lit très inconfortables, il n y a pas beaucoup de douches, 1 sur 3 de ouverte, les 2 autres dans un état horrible. Bloque de climatisation sur roulettes très bruyante. Il devait y avoir un service de sécurité pour rentrer entre 10pm et 2 am, sauf que personne ne répondait à 10:30 pm. J'ai failli passer la nuit dehors....... heureuumsement quelqu'un est sorti....
Shame has been a nice and helpfull staff. Never forget her. She understood and helped me to be comfortable Always!! Bathrooms nd Kitchen news and clean. Hot shower water!!! Perfect Big terraces I really don't understand why just has on booking 5 points. It deserves more.
The place has a BIG POTENCIAL!! I think bed could have more quality!!! And livingroom more clair colours on the walls.
L'emplacement est bon et les sanitaires assez propres. La cuisine est bien équipée.
Le lieu n'est pas accueillant du tout, très délabré. Nous avions une chambre pour deux mais nous devions traverser le dortoir pour y accéder. De plus, c'est très bruyant et pas conforme aux photos. Je ne recommande pas, surtout si vous souhaitez un minimum d'intimité. Le prix est accessible mais reste trop cher.
Na
Excellent staff, parking
キッチンや共用スペースが広く、くつろげる。
中心地から少し遠い。
Proche du centre La salle de bain est très bien Équipement cuisine très bien
La rusticité des lits L’amabilité du personnel Pas de couverture, juste un drap … Nettoyage pas quotidien
Nice place to be Everything is perfect
Is a perfect place I like everything.
