We had never stayed in a hostel, but found this with a private double room with private bath near the train station and quite liked it. The breakfast in the communal do-it-yourself kitchen was simple but enough.

Comfortable beds and nice staff, the place is located at a nice place that makes it walkable to the main Toronto activities! Only downside is that it can be a little noisy at night, since is really near the Downtown. ( bring earplugs ) :)

This was a great place to spend a night. It would have been better if I have a reminder email or text as it took me a while to find my reservation because I booked this in February. Other than that it was great.
