Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was staying in Toronto for a conference and chose this as a low cost option. Staff were friendly and efficient and the residence was clean throughout. Breakfast was functional - plentiful and canteen-style, feeling a bit like being back at school. The room was spacious with a private bathroom. A laundry is available for use in the basement. The location is good for downtown and the lake is about a mile walk away. Many other guests appeared to be in parties of young people on school trips - all were polite and there were no specific issues, but it did feel a bit overwhelming at times e.g. when trying to use the lifts. The decor was dated and the room and corridors felt very worn, with no plugs in the sink or bath and dripping taps. The bed had what seemed a very cheap mattress and there was a constant and loud hum in the room from some kind of vent. The AC worked but was very loud so I did not use it much. There was a fire alarm one night which required a full evacuation at 12:30am (from a 20+ story building) - and it took about an hour to get back in. Staff said it was probably someone smoking in a bedroom and didn’t seem too surprised. So whether this suits you depends on your own preferences and needs. The feel is as much hostel as hotel - so it’s great for people on a budget. It’s safe, clean and comfortable enough, with friendly and helpful staff and a great location. But if you want a hotel-style stay and can afford it, you may be better going elsewhere.

I have very mixed feelings about my stay here. I called ahead of time and was told my room would be ready for check in early. I drove a considerable distance for them to tell me there were no rooms available yet, leaving me stranded in downtown Toronto for hours. When I called later to see if my room was ready the receptionist was rather curt stating that there are no guarantees rooms will be ready early, that is all fine except that’s not what I was told originally. The room itself was fine, nothing exciting and no tv but worked for what I needed. The bathroom was pretty dirty with hair in the drain and shower still. Then the wifi stopped working in the early morning when I had to get up to study for an exam which was problematic as there is no front desk throughout the night into the morning. Breakfast was definitely the highlight of my stay it was great with a little bit of everything.

For some reason there were no plugs for either the sink or the bathtub. However, the water pressure in the shower was amazing! I had to do some searching to find an outlet to plug my phone in, but otherwise everything was great. Breakfast, cafeteria style was delicious and plentiful.

Ideal area, nice view, staff was very welcoming and easy communication, older looking room, nothing fancy, but despite the look, the bed was incredibly comfortable. I will definitely be looking to stay here in the future for easy affordable stays in downtown
