I really liked the area and had a good time during my stay. I got the queen room and it was nice for a quick trip. It was satisfactory for cleanliness and condition, but I wouldnt go as far as saying it was luxurious.

It feels more like a half-way house than it does a Hostellerie. It's too hot in the main room and the old man running the place kept turning off the air conditioner and complaining to the guests about a door not being closed, he was being aggresive about it to people who had nothing to do with the door, I think he expected the guests to keep shutting the door, or something, he was a bit much and clearly hates his job. I could hear him complaining about the guests and owner, he seems over it, like he was quiting or something, he made me feel like I wasn't welcome, or I was a nusance instead of a guest.. The beds are terrible, the bedding is old and gross, but the bathrooms were clean and there were a lot of them. I liked the people staying there, they were nice, and the woman working the reception the next day, with the accent, was super nice and helpful. The balcony was torn up and being repaired and the front entrance was being painted (fumes) so it was a bit much. I liked that it had a kitchen, but it was so hot in there that I just stayed out, and I'm not sure why there is a lock on the dishwasher? Super weird! lol

Bang for your buck. The room door and window are frosted glass so you can see the outlines of people passing by. Walls are thin so you hear a lot including that one person walking by at 4am. It was tricky figuring how the door keypad lock works cause it doesn't automatically lock behind you nor did it have an actual lock button. You gotta lock it from the inside before you leave the room. Otherwise though, we slept well. Room wasn't uncomfortable. There's nowhere to hang and put your clean towel and clothes in the bathroom or a place for your soaps other than the floor. On the upside the bathroom was pretty clean. It can feel a little dodgy outside at night but we didn't feel unsafe. They don't open the door past 10pm so you gotta pay a deposit for a doorpass and they refund it when you return the key. Didn't use the other amenities. No conflict with other people but we stayed one night and it was just a place to sleep. Would I stay again? Probably. Not alone though.

People in the community say that the Parkdale Hostilerie has gone downhill due to new ownership. This is not true; owner is busy with Shisha Lounge and Soir. She has left the self-described "maintenance man" to "manage" the place. Customer service is awful. Cleaners do not clean. Rooms are infested with Toronto residents who lack basic manners and decency. Having travelled throughout the world, in 5 star hotels and budget hostels, I can state unequivocally that this is the worst place I have ever stayed. If you don't believe me, check the other reviews. There is no manager here. The customer service is awful. I have decided not to live in Toronto, in part, because of the terrible service that was provided here. Please do better.
