Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was misadvertizing on the Expedia platform This is a Hostel NOT an exclusive rooms There’s absolutely NO sound insulation you can hear next door person talking… NO smoke detectors in the room The doors are NOT fire proof as per regulations in Ontario There’s NO tv in the room ( it’s a mandatory for Airbnb) Carpet in high traffic areas, which is very hard to maintain clean Towels were very old and ripped Was absolutely misleading and overpriced for that room And I don’t think residential house can be converted for Hostel without any safety and fire regulations by Ontario laws

An adventurous alternative to hotel stay
Staying at a "guest house" was a new experience- private bedrooms, but shared bathrooms, kitchen & living area. Home-y to have cupboards full of needed utensils, system to label your personal food items by room#; pleasant decor, back deck to sit & sip morning tea. Extra bonus of meeting new people & having conversations with other residents/guests in the common area.

Liked: Cleanliness
the price was quite reasonable. The room was very hot with no way to cool it down. The property was unkempt--the grass had not been cut and it looked uncared for, and the back deck looked to be in poor repair. The parking was odd--with a two car driveway marked off for three cars. The only way for our vehicle to get there was to drive over the sidewalk.

Nice and quiet but I had an issue with tv and bathroom. While there was cable tv verity a gazzilion stations I could only view about 10 with the rest needing a subscription. Of those 10, there were none current except some news stations. My only choices were 30 year old reruns. As far as the bathroom, my issue was with how it was left. On the second day I went in for a shower and the entire counter was covered in water. The same thing happened the next day. I see there were very specific rules for the kitchen but nothing for the bathroom. Just a suggestion, on the third floor common area it would have been real nice to have a small coffee table to put my meal and drink on instead of the floor or couch. I noticed the info sheet said there were containers for everyone’s food in the fridge but the first time I opened the fridge it was full with no containers so I had to use the basement fridge then truck back to the third floor. I certainly got a good workout but that is not what I was paying for. Another idea would be to have Kleenex in the bathrooms. Much nicer than blowing my nose in the sink and having to clean that up. Maybe that’s why the counter was covered in water. Nice concept but it needs refining.
