“NEVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL”

This stay was a joke from the ckeck in till the check out. Hopefully, we stayed only one night. To sum-up: 1. the manager is absent, students take their turn at the front desk and are not concerned at all by our complaints 2. the shower was dirty with hairs in the bottom, dejection at the edge of the toilet, meaning that the cleaning had not been done 3. there were no towels provided. 4. the neighborhood was very noisy, listening music until late in the night.5. We waited 30 minutes before having a breakfast and they was nothing to eat anymore. 6. we were told to park the car along a wall in a said private area as the parking lot was full. We paid for that and when we went back to our car the day after, we had a ticket!!!! When we told the hotel, they did not trust us because our payment had not been tracked. After 15 min of hard discussions, we obtained $30 to pay the ticket. It is the worst hotel I ever stayed in. Never pay for this hotel, you will lost your money. It is a shame that such hotel is authorized to continue its activity and I don't understand why Expedia references it. I am not difficult and don't have fancy requirements but honestly I would have preferred sleeping in my car and save my money.

“Rubbish & definately not clean.”

Not impressed at all. The bed wasn't made, dirty laundry was still in the room from previous guest. Had a TV, that didn't work, a telephone that wasn't pluged in, no soap etc. The walls were dirty, no curtains on the window, a dirty bath. No wireless Internet access in room as claimed. Definitely won't be returning. In fact can't wait to get out of here.

“Disgusting, unsanitary, and unsafe”

The rooms are in bad shape- holes in the walls, no locks on the windows, mosquitoes and spiders everywhere (8 bugs in the shower of the first room they showed me). I am never going back. I thought it could not be as bad as the previous reviews and picked it because of the price, but I wish I had not since the room and hotel were disgusting and I didn't feel safe leaving my laptop in a room in a bad neighborhood without locks on the windows and therefore had to carry it around with me while sight seeing. Avoid this place at all costs.

“Reasonable price for the location but quality of hotel is very low”

If you just need a room to protect yourself from the weather and wants to stay close to the downtown, this is your hotel. Do not expect a descent service as the hotel is very dirty, the room is very cold (during winter) as the heater is not working, the bathroom is dirty, breakfast is not really a breakfast (some flight snacks could be better), no dryer is available although it can be borrowed on request according to the Expedia page, etc.

Area recommendations
Watching a hockey game at Air Canada Centre is expensive but really fun, Tour at Rogers Centre is pretty descent, CN Towers is kind of expensive but a god experience, AGO if you really love art, Legend of the Game store is a really fun place if you love sports, Hockey Hall of Fame is a must-go place if you are hockey fun.

“a little surprised”

-There was not always someone available at the desk to speak to. -Our room had dirty towels and bed linens from the previous guests. -The description of the hotel did not explain that this was a hostel, so that was a surprise to us; we assumed we were going to a hotel. -The description stated that there was free on-site parking, when in reality there was no parking for several blocks. -HOWEVER, everyone (staff and boarders) was very nice and welcoming.

Getting there
Make sure you do not park on the street in front of the Downtowner Inn, but there is an apartment building down the road on the opposite side where you can park. The owner of the apartment building is the owner of the Downtowner Inn.
What to pack
your own towels and bed linens - these were unclean
Nightlife
The Guvernment is a 6 mile drive or 45 minute walk from the Downtowner Inn

“Never go there!”

My worst travel experience. Staying at Downtowner inn was a shocking experience. In terms kind of room, no linen or soap in the bathroom. Icing on the cake was the "free breakfast".....the person was cleaning the kitchen and preparing pan cakes both at same time. Shocker!

“You get what you pay for”

I stayed here with 7 other friends, we were all teenagers in town for a concert and nights out on the town. Tourist areas are a short walk away. The hotel is not nice at all. There is no other way to say it besides that it is a dump. The shower's drain didn't work, and the only reason why the water didn't overflow into the bathroom was because there was a hole in the wall of the shower for the water to leak through. Not a place to go if you are trying to plan a romantic getaway or a place to be crashing for the majority of your trip. If you are in Toronto and just need a bed at night because you have plans for the days and you don't mind being at a less than stellar hotel, than this is the place to be. If you can't handle not being positive that the room is spotless or have the money to do so, you should probably stay somewhere else. Perfect place for American teenagers to go to party.We met a lot of cool people who are travelling through and had a blast.

Area recommendations
There are no bad places in Toronto. We were told that this hotel was in the worst area of the city, and we were walking around at 4 in the morning with no problems or worries. We did see the occasional prostitute and pimp, but we thought that added to the epic-ness of the trip
