Best value you’ll find in the city! Let’s face it, the rooms are small, but if you’re only looking to have a safe spot to sleep and leave your bags, just go there. Common bathrooms were clean and the showers stalls are all separated by doors.

Still the BEST price for a room in Toronto, and very convenient for exploring the city or going shopping, sight seeing or other. I was there for a festival in the Annex district which was literally walking distance but also highly accessable via street car, which stops right outside our residence.

Room was clean, one of the mattresses on the single bed was very old, flat and uncomfortable compared to the other visibly newer one. Nice location, close to many ttc options, central ac was lacking, room was very warm. Staff were very friendly. Overall decent for the price and location, would stay again.
