Great location. Was able to park my car overnight within a block of the property. For those sensitive to it, there is some houseless activity nearby but the property has great security and the street is very busy even when dark outside because of the restaurants, pubs and bars.

I really enjoyed this hostel, the privacy curtains on the beds and the free breakfast with fresh fruit, bagels, and cereal were great bonuses. I've stayed in Toronto at $400 CAD a night hotels that didn't even provide breakfast.

Overall my stay was great! I loved that the Hostel was near many restaurants and shops. The biggest negative was all the homeless around the Hostel. I felt like I was part of the Walking Dead show I Didn’t like either your place charges if you misplace your key. At least the Hostel promises to reimburse me after I found the original. It’s still worth staying at. Great people I met at the Hostel

Easy to check in. Staff is friendly and available 24/7. Appeared as advertised. The place is overall clean. Unfortunately there is mold in the shower tiles. If you are heavy sleeper this is a perfect place. The floors and door are very squeaky with people in multi rooms coming and going throughout the night.

great place to stay if you're travelling solo! i was staying in a all women dorm, and the room was very clean and well ventilated, which was definitely nice with this beginni of summer weather. the breakfast was very simple (bagels, cereals and/or apples and bananas), but it was quite nice to be able to munch a little bit for free in the morning :) well located and sound proof, there was a party across the street at a bar but i couldn't hear anything from my room!

Great location, staff very helpful, nice breakfast, comfortable beds. If something I have to mention is that there is only 1 WC per floor (or at least I only noticed one) for so many people might be not enough, however I never had to wait to use it and it was decently/relatively clean so I don't complain.
