For the price this was a great little spot for the night. Room was cozy, had everything I needed for a one or two night stay and the location was pretty good. It was a bit of a hike to get down to the Scotiabank place where I was going but walking along Queen St was so much fun with so much to see that it was well worth it! Will definitely stay here again!

I expected some discomfort because of its price, but it was so uncomfortable to stay night. Fan of air-conditioning is so loud; I couldn't sleep very well. Air quality is so bad because there is no ventilation. Location of this Dorm is also not great. Only good thing is that it is in the downtown area.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
For the price of the stay, it's good for the price, the mattresses are thin foam and the pillow was thin and lumpy, the shower looked gross, and the rooms were kind of dusty, but there were enough plugs, a microwave and a mini fridge, the soundproofing is good, I didnt hear other rooms, didn't see any signs of bedbugs, the rooms were pretty secure, although fair warning the pictures show safes, and there were none in my room so I'm not sure if they're in all the rooms. But it's a super convenient location to spend the night, especially if you're catching an early flight. You get what you pay for here, for better or for worse

For the price in Toronto it was not too bad. Lack of parking was an issue. The host did not know where the parking lots were or how to pay for overnight parking. We received an address for public parking and had to find for ourselves. Room very small and had glass walls for bathroom. Located right on Queen st. The entrance was a door in the wall with zero signage and the room was located upstairs on top of A&W
