This place is a Shelter not a Hotel. An actual operating shelter. We could smell cigarettes smoking in the room. Someone was yelling in the hallway very early in the morning. You can feel the springs in the mattress of the bed. Homeless people were camped at the front door talking about robbing someone. You need to press a buzzer to get in the main office to check in. I feel it is falsely advertised. I didn’t realize it was an operating shelter till I had checked in. I tried to get a refund on my room booking but couldn’t get any money back for the first night. I don’t recommend to anyone.

Climatisation bruyante.

A little tired . No elevator to second floor room . We were moved to first floor room . We had out door plot with two mismatched chairs . The gate to that area was broken .

This is a barebones hotel, but very inexpensive compared to anything else in the area. Staff are very friendly and the room was clean. We just wanted a place to sleep that was within walking distance to things we wanted to do. This fit the bill. The area isn't that bad, but there are a lot of homeless people that hang out in the parking lot- no one bothered us though. My only real complaint is that this is a non-smoking hotel and we could smell smoke and week everywhere.

Most of the building is a homeless shelter and you'll find people hanging outside the entrance/parking lot at all hours of the day. Some are people going through a hard time, others are less stable. The staff is friendly but not particularly helpful. My room had a strong cigarette smell and I was advised to open the window and turn on a fan. I ended up just having to deal with it till the end of my stay. The room also didn't feel clean, especially the bed and towels in the bathroom. The room itself is a very basic hotel room, with a small kitchenette. Nothing fancy but for the price would be considered fine. Given the location in downtown Toronto and its proximity to major tourist attractions, this should be an easy 3 or 4 rating for its price. But with all the issues listed above, I wouldn't rate it higher than a 1.5.

Not bad for the price

People hanging in parking lot

Not a place I’d stay with family; however, for single travellers looking for basic accommodation this was perfect. It was clean/safe with +++friendly staff.

Value was low because property was too expensive for what was provided at $250 per night. At least they have a new elevator. The only thing it has going for it is location.

The worst hotel experience I ever had in my life

Staff was nice the thing I liked: walking distance to the hospital but I would not recommend it to friends.

Malgré un accueil gentil, proche d’un parc et à 30minutes de la tour CNN à pied, l’hôtel et le quartier n’est pas sécuritaire. Je ne recommande pas cette hôtel à des familles.

This is more than a hotel, it's also some kind of refuge with sometimes rough looking folks. While some people may be scared to stay in such a place, we were in and out of the place at times of the day and night and it was safe when we were there. This hotel just felt how I felt Toronto was. Looks rough but is nice. The hotel staff is beyond nice, the hotel is near enough to the city centre for that to be its second best asset. The rooms could do with some TLC, sometimes you can smell some fait scent of cigarette coming from the vent and the A/C is very loud but it's a fairly neutral sound. One of the things that make the hotel very attractive is its price. And I think the location/prica ratio was pretty much the best when we booked for what we needed to do in Toronto.

Cancellatela. Struttura vecchia e decadente, ai limiti della fatiscenza. L'odore di rancido pervadeva la stanza, la moquette moltiplicava il senso di sudicio, bagno indegno

Excellent location! Great price, no frills place to stay in downtown Toronto. Very clean and comfortable.

Homeless encamped in front of building

If you’re looking for a cheap stay for a night, this one fits the bill. However, the area is quite sketchy. I lived in Toronto for a few years when I was younger, and still found the homeless/drug addict population to be off putting. Packs of them hang out in front of the building, in the alley and the adjacent park. While I didn’t feel “unsafe” (due to exposure when I lived on Queen Street East), it could definitely be intimidating for someone visiting the city for the first time. It’s a very run down building that shows its age and its typical clientele. I can say the CN Tower view from the room was a “plus”, otherwise this place isn’t ideal for anything more than a cheap night in the city.

Convient location, cost is resonable.. noisy at night and property needs some Tlc
