Pros: The location was great and close to downtown and transit. We could easily walk to most places from there. The price was hard to beat, especially for the location.
Cons: The listing was somewhat misleading. They only have 1 or 2 beds in the room. 1 bed is for 1-2 people and 2 beds is for 3-4 people. The listing made it sound like it would have more beds in each room. I booked a room for 3 and it only had 2 beds. Still would have booked it, but set your expectations accordingly. Also, the bedding didn't seem like it was cleaned.

Pros: The location is good, you can basically easily get to anywhere in the city on foot, even to the city centre.
Cons: The lady at the reception was lovely, but couldn't speak English properly and so, when I had questions regarding the payment, I'm not sure if she understood me. Also, my card has been pre-authorized, and even though I paid in cash already, I'm still waiting (it's been 2 weeks) for the pre-authorization to be suspended! I don't know if it depends on the bank's processing time or not, but it's really annoying! As for the room, it was right beside the reception, so it was kinda noisy.

Pros: As above
Cons: Great staff. If you are looking for big TV and large room then pay extra elsewhere but the staff are nice and everything is clean. They are very accomodating with good communication.

Pros: The Parkdale Hostel is the worst place to be in. At first the reception staff was very rude and she doesn’t know who to treat a guest and she’s a short lady with spectacle. And also the hostel is dirty with lots of faul smell every where . And also the hostel bathroom shower doesn’t have a handle . Making it impossible to figure out how should we have a bath And the exhaust in the toilet and the light is complete devastated broken . You will fell like your in slum . The fan and toilet light might fall on your head any time and your head might get injured.And top of that the management doesn’t even take care of it inspite of repeated request. The worst part is the flooring which is broken and especially since it’s Made of wood the small tiny chip might hurt you . Overall all this you pay a very expensive price for your stay . I strongly recommend not to stay in this place . Please be careful with your hard earned money and have a good experience somewhere else .

Pros: Nothing!
Cons: Do not stay here, especially as a young female solo traveller, the place itself is dirty, and not safe at all! The hallways smelt like sick, the balcony attached to my dorm room did not lock and was easily accessible to others! The showers only have a curtain you can pull over and no doors that could be locked, whilst I was in there a male cleaner came in which made me feel very uncomfortable due to having no door just a curtain. The area itself is OK but was not safe in the evening, just outside the door many homeless people would hang around there asking if you wanted drugs and at one point a guy tried to get me in his car and got angry when I didn't want to. I would personally never stay here again its very unsafe, not many staff around to reassure you and the place is dirty!

Top tips for finding the perfect Toronto hostel
- Toronto is a sprawling city, and there are small concentrations of hostels in many of its neighborhoods. While many hostels are situated in downtown Toronto, there are also small collections of them in Chinatown, near Regent’s Park, and in the areas surrounding the University of Toronto. Each one of these neighborhoods offers its own unique attractions. Booking a hostel in Toronto’s downtown area can offer the most convenience, but booking a hostel in Regent’s Park or Chinatown might give you a more authentic taste of daily life in the city.
- There are several advantages that come with booking a hostel in Toronto instead of more expensive hotels and vacation rentals in the city. Besides offering accommodations at a fraction of the cost, hostels offer amenities like shared kitchens where you can prepare your own meals, recreation areas, and common areas where you can meet fellow travelers.
- If you’re heading to Toronto with a group, booking a room that can accommodate a group at one of the city’s hostels can make your stay go more smoothly. The Two Peas Pod Hostel, located in the area near the University of Toronto, offers triple rooms that can accommodate groups of up to three. The Two Peas Pod Hostel also has plenty of common areas, where you and your party can kick back after a hard day of sightseeing.
- Going to Toronto on your own? One of the best hostels in Toronto for solo travelers is the HI Toronto Hostel, which is located in the downtown area close to attractions like the CN Tower and the Royal Ontario Museum.
