The rooms had character and felt safe.

Charming and lovely place. Nothing much but for a few days and for the price it was worth it. Near tram station and 10 mins walk from the Queens park subway station. Not so far from the Eaton centre by walk. Food at 5 to 10 minutes by walk. Just one thing I didn't like was if you wash on the shower near the window people outside might see you because the certains isn't wide enough. But, end of June, there weren't many people so I only used it 1 time out of 5 and it was only because someone flooded the other one(I was on the 1st Floor on the west door) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a12ccd95-9da0-4517-b8f9-53c4f63310f2-1751342945867.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Louise Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### August Oct 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I visited in mid-August, during one of the warmest heat waves of 2025\. As such, I was SIGNIFICANTLY affected by the lack of air conditioning (of which the college had made me aware on multiple occasions). While the rooms do have ceiling fans, the one in my room was not balanced properly, as it made a constantly irritating and disruptive noise (regardless of the speed setting). However, when set to the highest speed, the noise made it seem like the whole unit would come loose from its housing and decapitate me. As such, I had to settle for the second-highest speed, the noise of which still prevented me from getting even one good night's sleep during my stay. Otherwise, my stay was perfect! Many of the buildings (including the residences) on campus are older and really beautiful. Part of the residence was open weekdays during the summer, allowing guests to tour the beautiful chapel upstairs. Location is not bad, about a 20-minute walk west of downtown. Some people might find this a bit inconvenient but, since I walk everywhere, it didn't bother me at all. Long story short, the residence is a great option, provided the weather cooperates, you enjoy walking, and you have a working fan. ;) ##### August Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott Aug 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay at a decent price.

The location is great and close to public transportation. The room was clean and it felt very secure over all. The ladie's bathroom was on a different floor than my room, but it didn't bother me as it was right next to the stairs. I was pleasently surprised by how comfortable the bed was. Be aware there is no air condition, only a fan, so it can get a bit hot in the summer, but at that price for a private room in Toronto - it is a bargain ##### Tine Haslam Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Niki Sep 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities About 15 minutes walking distance from the subway station, this is a very beautiful, antique building to stay in.
