8/10 Good

Amazing experience, nice staff and clean place only minus thing: constant loud music in all the common areas, so you can’t meet ppl and talk or rest in a common space. Also no lift. But the location and everything else is perfect, beds are comfortable too. Overall I recommend it and will come back there!
Colline, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The air conditioning was barely working and it sucked because it was so hot outside I kept waking up all night. Nice to have lockers. The bed was comfortable. Nice to have a kitchen and somewhere to eat and socialize. Showers and bathroom were okay

Located in Kensington Market with quick access to public transit and easy walkability to nearby places of interest! Great complimentary breakfast and housekeeping. Would definitely recommend for the price :)

I was suprised to see how nice the staff is. Its really safe atmosphere. Washrooms were clean, the bed was bed bug free. Its really worth the money.
Jatinder, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Room was 100degrees so no air conditioning even though there was a unit in the room - when I went to ask at the front desk, I was told that it was working. While a hostel, should have basic services that is advertised

I enjoyed my stay, and mostly the places were a walking distance for me. Which was good. Overall, I had a good experience!
Brandon, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This hostel is in Kensington Market area, and it's a vibrant, multicultural, youthful area. Lot's of good food places, and interesting sort of touristy and fun stores. The hostel itself is an economical place to stay, with a kitchen you can cook your own food in, and common areas. It was a lively place to stay, with lots of friendly people. I really enjoyed the staff here and also many people from other countries coming and going. I was really taken with my one week stay in Toronto. I found everyone I met to be so helpful and outgoing and kind. People seem good at coexisting. If you are a clean freak, a city is a city with all it's variety, but I didn't see a lot of littering or garbage strewn. There's people living homelessly yet I didn't experience a lot of aggression. I feel grateful to have been in the mix. and thankful to the staff in particular.
