It was serviceable. The area is great in terms of access to transit & near Chinatown, so to shops grocery, drug store, thrifting, etc & many many great food & drink options. Also at the mouth of Kensington Market.nThere is a large population of homeless &/or drug using persons that hang around the area all times of day. For the most part, they do not engage with you but it is highly uncomfortable. However I have noticed a homeless problem in Toronto.nThe beds, rooms, amenities are serviceable. Only sheets, blanket, pillow, and towels provided. Rooms tend to run warm.nAlso lots of street noise from the Taco Taco & cars and stuff.nCommon areas are decent. Breakfast is basic, kitchen is spacious.nShared shower, shared bathrooms; clean enough; shampoo & body wash provided.nI think for me, it was fine as a shelf to lay my body between event days and little else.
I stayed here for my first trip to Toronto and I really enjoyed my stay. The bed was comfortable. It was clean, the staff was nice and friendly, they served breakfast. It was a really nice time. I loved the area it was in it was near so many shops and restaurants. I will definitely be coming back. I really enjoyed my time in Toronto.
Hey, you get what you pay for! It’s comfy and budget friendly! I genuinely love how most of their facilities are open 24/7, especially since I had the late night munchies! But I do have to say the hostel is in a bit of a sketchy part of the city. Just be careful! There’s a community centre nearby here. Other than that, honestly better than I expected. Super thankful for the kind staff!
Excellent room and service. Healthy breakfast has been provided vegan available. Stuffs were extremely helpful. I had a creepy roommate who asked me inappropriate sexual things and made me feel unsafe. The moment I complained about it they moved to a different room, and confronted that person. During the whole shifting one stuff was there to make sure my safety. In terms of service location and room I highly recommend. Hygiene was well taken care of. Clean washrooms. Location is best. Everything is close.
The hostel is ok, the kitchen is great, the communal spaces are good.nThe rooms not so good at all, beds very uncomfortable and creeky, every time you move its squeaks and creeks.nAlso curtains around the bed are very old and tatty.nStaff were very nice, no help at all to take luggage to room, no lifts so all stairs, if you have a heavy bag it’s hard.nBathrooms not to bad.nArea is alright but someone smoking weed on every corner/street you walk.
