The hotel was much nicer and cleaner than I expected. The location was near downtown and easy access to stores. I had a slight problem in Toronto and the staff was great in assisting me. They were really friendly and when above and beyond to help me resolve this matter. I would recccommend this hotel and they have great customer service. The workers were caring and really helpful.

Horrible

THe location is on a spooky street,the "hotel"looks loke an abandoned castle,has no parking,you have to pay for it. The closet in the room has no shelves,the bathroom had a hole in the wall,a glass instead of a window that never opens.the room si reallly small. The listing has faked pictures that belong to a different hotel in Arabia Saudit.

A Horrible start to our holiday

On arriving at the said hotel we found building work going on in the foyer with rubble and a hole in the wall, we approached reception and handed over paperwork, after a few moments head scratching by the assistant and some discussion with an assistant(not in English) she gave us 2 sets of keys to 2 rooms on entering the 1st room we found it was already occupied, we went back to the desk and the gave us another set of keys, we went to the said rooms and found them extremely dirty with stains on bed and carpets, broken heaters in each room stains on the wall broken sockets, curtains tied up and not on runners generally we were so disappointed we checked out immediatly and found alternative accomadation for the week. I will be demanding a full refund as we were in the hotel no longer than 15 minutes and there was no help or compassion to our plight. the staff were rude and inconsiderate speaking amonst themselves in there native tongue belittling us

when you don't have much money

This was the third time I've stayed at this hostel, and I was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating the man working behind the desk was. He upgraded our room for free because they hadn't filled all the rooms, and was very helpful in answering our questions. The beds were pretty uncomfortable, but they were clean, and we had clean towels. In the past, my room had been dirty and there were used towels and soap in the bathroom. So this was a welcome change that my companions and I embraced. These rooms are much cheaper than any other hotels in this area - the quad rooms fit 4-6 people. If you're going with a group of friends and you're only going to sleep a few hours, definitely try this place at least once.

Nightlife tip: Long walk from hotel

If you are visiting Toronto to spend a night out at The Guvernment, the Downtowner is a great place to crash. It's a short cab ride (about $11) or a long walk (quite enjoyable when it's warm out) from the club, almost a direct route.

Stay here if your vaccinations are current.

The only good thing about this hotel is the location. Very central and close to the subway. The hotel itself was horrible. Cockroaches in the bathroom. Bedbugs in the bed. Loud obnoxious kids in the hallway all night. Room was not cleaned the next day. A bag of trash was left in front of our door in the morning. Parking lot is big enough for 6 cars only and you must pay an additional fee to use it. Neighborhood is not a good family environment. Good location is all the Downtowner Inn has to offer. 2 blocks from Union Station. Spend the extra money and sleep in a real hotel.

Great price, staff, location, room, etc.

..amenities, outdoor appearance, indoor appearance (fairly good).. I was in town for a soccer tournament on a limited budget. It's not a ritzy hotel, but it fulfilled my needs well while considering my monetary limitations. On a side note, a raccoon casually passed me as I strolled in late at night, but someone had left food out front, so can ya blame the animal? Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

Money-saving tip: In Hotel

Park in the hotel's lot for $10 a day (or night). You can leave it there your whole stay, I believe. I doubt that there are more affordable options that have this convenient location.

Small, dirty, creepy

It doesn't look bad from the outside. However, when we checked in, I could tell right away that the place was a dive. Check in was very slow. While standing there, waiting for the lady to check us in, I noticed the monitor that displays various sections of the hotel. Not only was it never looked at, it was flickering so bad that you couldn't really see much. The place was so old that they still give out literal keys instead of swipe cards. When we walked into the room, I was creeped right out. The place was so tiny that the bed barely fit in it. The bedding appeared clean but the rest of the room was not. The bathroom and the entire room was dirty and falling apart. To top it all off, we got two $30 parking tickets while we were there. One at 9:57pm and the other at 8:07am the next morning. My bf was outside at 10am (two hours later) having a cigarette and noticed the meter people coming again. Apparently in Toronto, the third ticket they tow. There were not any 'no parking' signs on the street where we parked so we thought it was safe to park there. It reminded me of the movie "Vacancy". The place was so creepy that my bf made sure that he slept by the door.
