Roaches and noise

IF it had not roaches I'd absolutely like it! Being in a cold house in a hot weather is a gift. I'm so sorry to put a "Fair" rating on it because staff was beyond my expectations, but... roaches everywhere. They can't do anything with roaches, struggling to maintain this old house.

The place is very much outdated, the house does not look good either, the floors make sound when you walk, the room did not have heater and it was very cold, a lady gave us a portable heater instead, the beds are old, the neighborhood is scary, i did not feel 100% safe, the rooms don't have private bathroom, so everyone have to share it, my pillow was old and dirty, I know the price and location is important, but if you are traveling with kids, I wouldn't recommend it, if you are looking for a place just to go to sleep for a low price then this will be a good option. It was difficult to do the check in, we were waiting for very long time before somebody was able to help us.

breakfast was not included

Exceedingly noisy considering the dogs across the street, and the fire house across the corner. Was under the impression there was ac, but it was a heater. Window open and fan full blast was still very hot. Bathroom at least had cleaning supplies to wash out shower before use, but bugs were absolutely everywhere when dark. Microwave/kettle/mini fridge were fine, basically everything but the building itself.

Neighborhood is not where I would live. Fire station katty corner. Barking dogs across the street.

Room was ok.

Owner was helpful

Was not an hotel/hostel but a shared house. The woman in the "reception" gave me the wrong key of the room, fortunately there was another door on the back of the room. The 2 shared bathroom were dirty all the time. Expensive for what you get. Fine if you are desperate.

The room was big.

the hotel did not answer the phone call at all and it is not good.

The facilities of the hotel is ok

There was cigarette smell in my room since I arrived, and I couldn’t get rid of it in the whole week.

I loved having a fridge and microwave.

The property was dirty especially the bathroom, in general the building was very old and in need of repair/maintenance. We didn’t want to use the shower as it was so grim… and we went to use the toilet one morning and found a ‘plastic bottle with tin foil’ definitely some sort of drug paraphernalia. The bedroom blinds had definitely had their moneys worth and were in desperate need of replacing. After contacting booking.com to see if we could check out earlier than originally booked, as we didn’t feel happy or comfortable staying for the duration, all that they did was make the situation worse. We didn’t want any repercussions or awkwardness from the property and after repeatedly saying this to the person at ‘Booking.com live chat’ she went and called the property showed them the photos we’d sent through of the poor conditions. Later on we got a knock at the door to say why had we gone to booking.com to complain and the place wasn’t dirty!? - exactly what we wanted to avoid!

It was nice to have a private entrance/exit, and the bed was fairly comfortable. The room had tv, fridge, kettle, sink, and linen was provided which was good.

The pictures look nicer online (it's actually older than what you see). I had a 1cm gap with my window and was unable to close it fully (I was advised to put a towel for the gap, things I had already done as it was very cold at night). Also when I arrived I could notice that the floor was not too too clean either (but disregarded it). The nights were really cold specifically with a gap in the window so I asked if I could have a heater as it was listed in the items (thank god) however the day I decided to watch TV it seems that I had to choose between having the heater on and watching the TV as it was making tripping off the electricity all the time each time I was doing both... and this for both my friend's room and mine, but for mine, it was making tripping off the main plugs like the TV, the Fridge and the microwave so it was quite annoying (specifically after having a cut after 11pm one day and ended up with my fridge melting overnight...).After more or less 3/4 electricity cuts I gave up on watching TV and it solved the problem. My friend next door to me was unlucky to have a few cockroaches (she was less scared of them than me) and I was praying for it to don't be the case for me as I couldn't see any since the beginning and that she saw few of them. Cockroaches are a big no no for me and hate it. Until the day when my friend heard me scream because I had 1 in my room (overall for me it was only 1 but 1 too many). Also, a very important point the blinds were really not in good condition at all and I struggled to put them in a certain way to ensure nobody could see me from the outside, then I left them that way for the entire stay (as it was a real piece of work).

The fact that the Landlady was helpful and tried to help us the best she could each time (even though sometimes I had the feeling I was bothering her more than anything). the supermarket just across the road and eateries around (Chinese, Japanese, etc). The fact that the subway metro station was about 9mn walking distance (Lincoln/cypress about 2 stops from Union gold line) and the neighbourhood was not that bad. The Bed was comfortable. The shelves and the space. Shampoo and soap provided. The Fridge, the microwave and the kettle were quite convenient also with a sink and water point as there was no bathroom in the room. Fresh and clean linen and towel. The fact that the landlady was kind enough to lend us some tableware (like bowls, cutlery, plastic glass)

Several things to be aware of. 1) no ac. there is a fan only. 2) shared bathroom down the hall. 3) although I felt fairly safe while there, the place is in a sketchy neighborhood

I was attending training and only needed a cheap place to sleep. This place fit the needs..

Price seemed kind of high. No apparent AC units. I was just far hot.

Great location. Cristina was very hospitable and accomplished.

Wi-Fi does not work. No parking lot. The floor was dirty with hair and dust, the room was not cleaned thoroughly. Shared bathroom. No 24 hour service desk.

The manager Christina is very friendly and helpful, the sheets were clean.

It didn't have a/c or heater. The channels on TV are basic.

I love that we have our own little space though it is spacious enough complete with amenities. Just bring your own mug and utensils. You will really enjoy it.

The fact that they used a bait and switch, the lack of accountability and the fact they had a bug problem

Nothing it was infested with bugs

Too much noise from street. Scary neighborhood. Not recommended to walk alone during night time. One common washroom for entire floor and I was unable to close the windows. As a matter of fact I had booked 08 nights there but I left the place after first night.

Breakfast wasn’t included.

The photos may look decent but this place is a real dump. Bookings should be ashamed to allow a facility like this to be on the page.

This place should be close down. Worst facility I ever been to. Soon I entered and saw the rooms it was a nightmare.
