I enjoyed my stay at the Pod-Inn overall. The showers, however, are right next to each other with no changing area, so it’s possible to end up changing at the same time as someone else. Personally, I would prefer a single shower with a locking door, even if it meant waiting in line, rather than opening the shower door to find someone changing only a few centimeters away, which did happen to me. On the positive side, the toilets were very clean, the kitchen area was tidy, and my room itself was clean. The staff was also very kind and welcoming, which made the stay much nicer. The main downside for me was the beds—they are extremely loud, so even small movements make a terrible noise, and it’s worse if the person above you moves. I also had concerns about the lack of sheets on the mattress, since you lay directly on it and I’m not sure how thoroughly it gets cleaned. Overall, this hostel does the job for short stays, but I wouldn’t recommend staying longer than about 3 days. The location, though, is excellent—right in Downtown Toronto, just a 5-minute walk from the City Train and Subway. You really can’t beat the location for the price, and I felt very safe walking back late at night after my shows. Would recommend for short stays!

This is no proper design set up for any mature adult, if one had any physical or health limitation you are screwed if checking into this backwards design., ideal for: the very poor, teenagers on a class trip, hostel for rape victims or perhaps halfway house prisoner, …the cramping from the way too tight sleep area, changing area, shower etc… Sleeping quarters are like a shelter, what comes to mind is something in Ukraine after one’s actual home had been bombed., seriously! Not suitable for just anyone., but needs to be advertised more honestly. This place is a disappointment waiting for the next fool to enter and be in for the shock of their lives 1 star maybe 2

Surely a couple would pay the same price for a hotel room? Lower bunks make it hard to get into a standing position.

Bien situé, à distance de marche des incontournables à visiter, matelas confortable, déjeuner approprié, Il faut savoir que c’est l’allure d’une résidence universitaire, ce qui m’a déplu est qu’il y avait des chambres avec lit superposés ou lit simple avec bureau de travail et espace d’intimité qu’on nous a refusé pour la 2e nuit prétextant que c’était complet mais ce n’était pas le cas

Pod was creaky and lacked ventilation. Every movement from neighboring pods or yours can be heard. One side of locker couldn’t open. Duvet didn’t come with a cover and it looked dirty so didn’t use it. Mattress was dirty looking and you had to put your own mattress cover on. Shower was cramped. No toiletries available in shower. They don’t offer late check-in after 11pm or breakfast before 7am, so take note if arriving late or leaving early. Quiet and safe area of town. Very walkable. Front desk guy was friendly and professional. This is more like a hostel than a hotel. I would not stay here again.

Stayed one night. Place was clean, doors were labeled and they provide rooms for phone calls or studying! If your prefer having a door, I wouldnt recommend, but I felt perfectly fine and they are blackout curtains to help keep the room dark.

It’s a good option if you want to save money. However, be aware that the beds on the top have too much illumination so it might be difficult to sleep if you get those beds. The owner should charge cheaper for those beds

I enjoyed the amenities such as breakfast and laundry, and the price was very reasonable. The staff was there to help you if you needed and they had someone on the door the entire time. The only thing that I would suggest would be more comfortable mattress, and easier access to the top bunk. Not great if you have knee problems.
