A place to rest your head

For the money I paid it was fantastic especially when you concider that you are in Toronto. Clean sheets very basic. A place to rest your head. Nothing more nothing less.

The staff was very nice and knowledgeable, even helping me track down a parking structure with a higher clearance height for my van. The room was basic but that is by design and it was truth in advertising. One thing that would make the experience better (and no doubt for the dorm students too) is some better sunblock shade on the window. The sun was intense very early and continued to intensify. Thankfully I did not stay in the room much during the day. Climate control kept it comfortable for sleeping at night. Shared dorm showers are fine for anyone comfortable with hostels. All in all I would choose this for my stay again due to pricing and convenience! Again, staff was very helpful!

This a college student dormitory; it's a dorm room. It's a nice dorm room. However, things can get noisy in the dorms if you remember your college days. Some nights were fine, but some nights were really noisy. I complained one night and campus security came and talked to the people, but then after campus security left, the party went on. If you have any noise issues, complain multiple times. Otherwise, the offenders will just ruin your stay at this place. The location of this place was EXCELLENT. You just can't beat the location and convenience of this place. Price was right for a college dorm. Surrounding area and campus in general is beautiful and clean.

The bed was very stiff and the mattress hard and thin. The air conditioning seemed old. You couldn't alter the temperature of the room and the air conditioning made a loud droning noise. The rest of the room was nice and basic.
