I live in a suburb of Toronto but decided to spend the night in a hostel to work a late then very early shift for the Hot Docs film festival. This hostel was the only one that had any space available the day-of. For $24 in the heart of Toronto, it was definitely OK. Nothing exciting by any means. Lockers... More

well, my title pretty much sums it up. During my 7 years of travel, I have stayed in over 50 hostels in 4 continents and I have to say this is the worst place I have stayed (and I've been to the bum end of Africa!) unwelcoming, unhelpful staff, freezing cold shower water. air conditioning units that dont let out...

I'm no princess, i've been to hostels with bed bugs but it was very cheap so you can understand. I will give it to backpackers on dundas, it seemed clean and the internet was great. But a note if your going to stay, its a rip off for what you get. First off its an old office block that they... More
