This was a great place to spend a night. It would have been better if I have a reminder email or text as it took me a while to find my reservation because I booked this in February. Other than that it was great.

The Clarence Hostel is well located and the size of the 4-bed dorm is impressive. The kitchen was super clean. Lot of rooms in the fridge. The room was clean. The only downside, the person at the front desk was so unpleasant. Some people shouldn't work in customer service.

The private room was amazing, great stay! The staff were.a little stranger, whoever the guy was working the front desk on saturday evening was incredibly rude and unfriendly. If the rest of our experience hadnt been so positive, he would have made us make the decision to leave. Backwards hat on at the desk, seemed bothered to have to get up or answer a question, very rude, and was a bit uncomfortable that he has access to all rooms. Id like to NOT focus on that, as the property was fantastic besides that one person!

Love the hostel! Will definitely wanna come back

Overall, it is excellent for the price they charge. I lived in a 14-bed room, including lockers for each person, two washrooms and two showers. The room was clean. For the 14 bed room, there's no table or chair. Nevertheless, before entering the bedroom, there's a small lounge outside, which is kinda nice if you need a seat or not wanna to bother others. For the shower, I wish there was an additional rack beside the sink cause I couldn't find a place to put all the things I need. In addition, the hair dryer is kinda loud and not so strong to dry hair; I hope they can install a better one. I think The Clarence Park is a great Hostel, and I will definitely come back if I come to Toronto in the future! The only thing I think needs to be considered is the not so good noise insulation. Especially having the possibility of living with 13 other guests who have different schedules. A little sound can wake you up at night! If someone is taking a shower at night, like 12 am, you can hear it!!! They also have a common kitchen with shared kitchenware and fridge to store any food you have. Breakfast is also served from 8-10am. However, breakfast is nothing fancy but cereals and toast with butter or jam. Also, the milk for cereal went out so fast; I was there at about 8:40, and the milk was already gone.
