Overall a nice stay, facilities were decent and close to tram stop. 2 women showers and 2 women bathroom stalls on each floor. Decent sized kitchen, dining room could be bigger as it often got full. It’s right next to Kensington Market which I didn’t realize how much of a party area that is. Luckily didn’t hear much street noise from my room but the overall area felt a little sketchy especially at night.

There's free breakfast, daily activities within SameSun and outdoor tour or food/beer crawl.

Mildred

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I stayed for 2 nights in the all female dorm. Clean room with lockers provided (own lock needed) beds were relatively comfy but did creak when moving around. I like the light that’s beside the bed along with outlet so close too! 2 showers for the female side and generally never had to wait to take a shower during my stay. Neighbourhood can be a bit sketchy but nothing too concerning, felt okay to walk alone. I really appreciated that there was many doors that needed key card access to different parts of the hostel which made the stay a lot safer in my perspective. Staff were friendly during check in and check out. Would stay again if in the area and looking for accommodation.

The place is generally clean and the rooms are a good size. The areas around the bed (e.g. walls) could be a bit cleaner. It's good that there is free breakfast, just wish there was an option to have boiled eggs for a more balanced breakfast. The area is very cool and eclectic though it is near a community center for people who do drugs. I wasn't too intimidated by it when coming back in the evening as the people there do not bother anyone.

Liked: Staff & service
Not what I expected
They do not assign beds so when I returned to my room for my second night, my bed was taken. Also it seems they only replace the bed sheets and pillow cases; NO comforters. My room smelled really bad. Additionally, there are only 2 toilets and 4 showers per floor. There are at least 10 rooms per floor and tens of beds. Also, toilets are similar to the ones in restaurants, bars or public places. Kitchen and common areas are ok. Staff friendly and nice. The area is a little sketchy but I did not feel unsafe. There's quite a contrast in the surroundings; homeless, drug use, tourists, hipsters and area residents. Public trans very close. I know Toronto is expensive but I found this hostel a little over priced for the value.

They got pretty much everything right at this hostel. One of the better hostels I’ve stayed at in recent years, and far better than other Samesun locations I’ve tried. Also located in a funky area with loads of restaurants and shops.
