Great deal for staying downtown

For what it costs to stay at this hotel - it is sure worth it. It is smack dab in the middle of downtown and is clean enough. Staff is friendly

Good Nice Comfortable Yes, I would recommend this hotel

close to downton was the only positive

This hotel was not pleasant. Awful air conditioning, awful shutters so the light came in super early. bad to non existent wifi. was the worst shower i have ever had

convinient regarding to its economic price

friendly staff but poor airconditioning ,good location close to main areas by walking

A few pleasant days in toronto!! & at knights inn

I was in Toronto a few days during my last holiday and was very surprise by the Knights Inn Toronto... Very, very affordable! Of course it's not a room that you would go to rest inside for a whole week :D But if you're going to Toronto to stay out and having fun AND in need of a place to sleep & rest... that'll be the best choice. I was satisfied of everything and for the price i can say... more

2nd Room a bit Less Disgusting than 1st

I usually read bad reviews and think that people are just way too fussy, and usually that is the case. I've read reviews about rooms being terrible and then I've found the place to certainly be adequate. When I checked into the room, I would have to say that this was by far the most disgusting hotel room that I have ever seen. The room itself was probably a little less clean than any other room... more

Nice staff, disgusting property. Bad area. Run.

Poorly maintained. Moldy takeout in the mini-fridge upon arrival (even though the staff member said that housecleaning was just there). Remote was missing the back cover for batteries. Lazily patched up holes in the walls in the room and the halls. Boot mark on the door and shoddy repairs to the deadbolt part of the door frame-obviously kicked in at some point and no one bothered to wash the... more

Good budget hotel in downtown Toronto

Hotel was great. Room was comfy, all basics were provided. Staff were very helpful when asked about directions. Small parking lot on site. Breakfast is minimal. 10 minute walk from train station, 3 minute walk from bus station. 15 minute walk into the city.

Use to be a hostel!!

This hotel was off the main streets in Toronto. our room was like a dorm room it had an air conditioner but with no electrical outlet anywhere near it, called the front desk, and they provided an extension cord very quickly but a little too quickly! My husband said it was as if they were hoping we would not complain and they would save on hydro. This hotel was $100 for the night and not worth... more

Its a cool place

The place is calm, and good for the money. Especially the fact that its downtown Toronto makes it a great spot

OK Place to stay on a budget

I booked only because I was in transit to the airport & only for one night. Almost cancelled after reading all the bad reviews but have travelled enough to know not to let the bad reviewers win. I'd got the bus down from Montreal and arrived at Bay St... I walked to the hotel, very simple route & took only... more

Clean Quiet and affordable

The room was small and clean and quiet if your there for a night or two it's good Parking there is limited for $15.00 a day.And walking distance to restaurants and . shopping . Free WIFI in rooms as well as breakfast service from 7:30 am
Staff very friendly .

Dangerous location, unkept hotel and not clean

The staff are very friendly and helpful but aside from that I would not recommend the knights in as a place to stay. The hotel is in a very dangerous area, there in an emergency homeless shelter on the next street and drug addicts/drunks in the park beside the hotel all day and night. The area is very run down... more

Don't recommend.. Dump

place was a dump. location was okay, room was a dump bathroom was discusting mold and missing/broken floor tiles, c@!p all over the walls. stains on the floor ants all over the place.. complementary brekfest was a joke.. toast and 1 kind of cereal. coffee was gross and orange juice was water basically. no on site parking and nearest parking... more

disgusting place

Rude front desk name SAN.I stay4 days but never clean up no housekeeping when i saw the lady housekeeping i ask her why no clean up my room she says your room # is not my list so i ask her a favor if she can give me a clean blanket and towel because the blanket smell bad like 3months... more

Dirty place

I spent a night in this place thinking that it was a nice quiet place far from the crowd of the city .
I did not sleep one minute , the bed was smelling so bad that i had to spend the night on a chair .
I would differently not recommend this place to any one .
Thank you... more

Good Budget Hotel

I won't bore you with a lengthy review, just points to help you decide if this is a good place to stay:
-Staff were very friendly
-Location is very good and within walking distance of many amenities including the subway
-Neighborhood for some would seem sketchy, but we walked back to the hotel at 12 at night and felt totally... more

It needs renovation

The hotel condition is the worst. The smell and some furnitures (blinds and cabinets) are falling apart..

Great Location

We stayed here for a week. The hotel itself is in a great location. Only a 10-15 minute walk to Younge-Dundas square. It is an older hotel but you can tell that they are renovating. Our room was clean. The beds were super comfy! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fine with me. Toast, waffles, cereal. They were very accommodating and kept our luggage safe on our last day as... more

Great for travelers

loved Toronto and without staying at knights inn, couldn't have afforded to spend as much time. basic hotel/hostel with no frills but reasonable, close to activity and parking right there!

Very bad neighbourhood

Scary! Not very clean very dated as well. Cheap that is the only up side! Poor area of town. Would never go back

awful........awful........awful ........

it was so awful we did cancel our stay there did not stay one night and canceled after we seen it but of course there was no money returned which was a upset .. we had to find another room at midnight by limo expense we cancel but I guess that's how they make there money by not refunding any money never again

Sleep and leave for sightseeing!

Very well situated, economical, for any visitor who just neefs to sleep!

Within walking distance to Yonge St

I was able to walk to where I wanted to go or take the subway so that was a big plus. The hotel could use some fixing up and cleaning ie upholstery.

Don't go even to save money.

There is very limited parking so ensure you book a spot before you arrive. The air conditioning did not work. Fair enough the staff were helpful and brought a fan. During the night the thermostat on it read 32 degrees. We were able to move to another room for the following nights. In neither room did blinds cover the windows and there was utterly inadequate window ventilation in the first room... more

Great stay!

We spend one night at the Knights Inn few days ago and we were very happy with our stay there. The room was a bit small, but very clean and comfortable. There was a complimentary breakfast that was nothing special but good enough. The guy on he desk is super nice and helpful! You definitely get the worth for your money!

Quiet clean reasonable price

I like the fact the room was clean a bit small just walking distance to restaurants your right downtown Toronto.Staff very freindly

Very Bad Experience, I don't suggest to anyone...Low quality room, food, neighborhood, handling the issues, etc.

knights inn hotel review

very bad hotel room allocated by hotel staff, nasty cigarette smoke smell inside the room, No curtains or blinds for window, bathroom doors not user friendly, Overall very bad hotel room

knights inn

The staff was friendly. Got what I expected small room with bathroom that was in need of minor repairs. Chiped paint, new cocking. Air conditionerfilter needed a good cleaning. No quilt but it was summer. Breakfast was cereal, toast waffles were only available once.

It is what it is

For the price you get what you'd expect really. The room itself was a little dirty and we didnt use the shower because it was gross. Its run down but the bed was okay and we only needed it for a place to crash so it did the trick. Left before breakfast so cant say much about that. The neighbourhood itself I thought was pretty good and its convenient. Did have to walk down the street to public... more

Convenient but not extravagant

Clean rooms and friendly personnel, moreover the hotel is well located. Minimal breakfast. Overall satisfied!

Cheap comfortable hotel

8th time staying here. Cheapest I have found other than hostels. Clean, friendly/helpful staff. Some rooms better than others. Not luxurious but perfect if you just need a place to sleep.

Very close to downtown

It's a good place to stay if your doing adventures in Toronto, very close to Eaton center and everything, hotel was nothing special, not a nice view but you get what you pay for.

Fantastic Hotel given the Price

The Royal York this hotel is not, however the nightly charge is a fraction of the cost!
The sheets + towels were spotless, pillows brand new! Bathrooms spotless, not a hair or a spec of dirt! Air-conditioning, refridgerator worked well. Staff, Incredible, basically bent over backwards to try + accomodate every request.
Pluses:
Downtown, decent area, clean bedding + bathrooms,... more

Loved it !

Loved it ! It was a perfect hotel , good location.

Great location

We enjoyed it. For the price, good value for money. Breakfast was nice. great staff

Can't complain!

I wasn't expecting the best hotel there is when I came to the Knights Inn so I wasn't disappointment. When I got there, they thankfully let me check in early making my life so much easier because I had to be elsewhere at the time of checking in. The employee who took care of me was very friendly and helpful. He made sure I was aware of what kind of room I was getting and also helped me with... more

Alright

Pretty good location, unfortunately no parking on hotel property or even NEAR the hotel. Had to park a block away in a city pay lot. Condition of the hotel wasn't great but it was a good price for the location. Also no elevator so had to carry heavy bags and my cooler up a flight of stairs.

It wasn't very good but you get what you pay for

The experience at knight inn was horrible no free parking we had to convince the guy to let us park there. And that's all I have to say about that

It's decent and a great price.

I had my misgivings about this place because of other reviewers but I found out the place was fine for what it cost. The important things: clean bed and bathroom, friendly staff, central locale. Room was small and could use an overall upgrade. Free breakfast was minimal. A/C worked fine. And I didn't experience any bed bugs like a previous reviewer reported. Bring ear plugs and a night mask if... more

Won't go back

Staff was nice but room was very small, missing bed tables, a lamp did not work ,bed was mediocre and hurt myself few times on corner extending from the base of the bed. Many loose baseboards surrounding heating system. AC was very dirty. One towel in bathroom only. Very disappointing experience

Hotel stay

Needs some major renovations. Bathroom wasn't very nice. Hotel staff wasn't very efficient when we asked for things. Was just a small room woth a fridge and small bathroom. Guess for Toronto. Am glad I got a deal on the room through expedia. Wouldn't wanted to have paid full price.

Hotel is close the Ryerson University

Friendly and helpful staff , comfortable and quiet room , conveniently located

Inexpensive but clean & comfortable

Pleasantly surprised after reviews. We booked at the last minute because we needed an hotel near St.Michaels hospital & that was the only hotel with availability. The room had 2 new beds,very comfortable ,new linens & new carpet. Bathroom was also newly renovated. Free coffee any time & breakfast was included. Not all rooms have been renovated so ask for one that has been. Front desk agents... more

Great for the price! Comfortable stay at a great rate!

I don't understand what all the complaining is about. This hotel was great for the price. The location is close to everything downtown and close to public transportation. The "college town" neighborhood is quaint - despite the bums and some shady characters - never felt threatened at all. The hotel wasn't refurbished with great care - some poor fitting and finishing. The beds and four pillows... more

Bridesmaid night.

I rented the 2 double beds room at this hotel with a friend. When we arrived, there were damp used towels behind the door on the floor of the bathroom. This made us question the extent of their efforts while cleaning. As we were leaving, one of the staff members was leaving fabric-made bags of hotel sheets to be washed, on the ground outside the door. Despite seeing us trying to load our car... more

service friendly but space not high quality

When I arrived the hotel had no remaining parking spaces available so I had to drive around the corner in a dicey neighborhood to park my car at a lot for the night. The lock on my room door did not catch properly necessitating me slamming the door several times to get it to close and when I got home one time, my door had been left propped open, I assume by the room cleaner. I also did not... more

Average hotel in dodgy area

The hotel is located in downtown but seems to be in a fairly rough area, lots of suspicious characters around. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, however the hotel and room were pretty grubby and in need of attention, particularly the bathroom. The beds however were comfy and clean! Breakfast was sufficient but nothing special and wifi worked fine. A little disappointing, but much... more

Great for the price and in the heart of the city.

I am very happy with my stay at knights inn toronto. It was right in the city, I was able to walk everywhere. They have complimentary breakfast which is great! The staff were extremly helpful and friendly! I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to get out into the city and not spending their time in their room.

fantastic value for money

I wanted a budget hotel in the city and was not looking for a 5 star experience but what I did get far exceeded my expectations. Very clean and freshly decorated room, perfectly adequate modern shower and toilet, basic but acceptable breakfast - all situated an interestng and comfortable walk from the downtown of Toronto. I would happily stay there again and recommend it to friends seeking a... more

Surprising

I got this hotel to book in the last moment of a trip, that was supposed to be a visit of a friend. But the friend had a big problem suddenly and I could not stay with him. In the same moment I was a little short with my money and had to keep the price low. I found this hotel downtown Toronto in a very quiet zone. The price was surprising and when I got in, I learned that even a breakfast was... more

Interesting Place

If you're only looking for a place to crash at the end of the day this hotel isn't bad though we kicked ourselves of not splurging a little more and getting a better hotel.

I had a great stay and would highly recommend

I was in Toronto for a conference and stayed at a few places, including the Westin Harbour and I have to say that this was by far my best experience on this trip. The employees are friendly and considerate and though the building is old it has a quaint feeling, like home.This Inn is not fancy but it does not have to be. It was a pleasure to stay here and plan to do so again when I go back to... more

Dump

Rooms are tiny and the walls desperately needed to cleaned. I would not recommend this hotel even if it's only $100/night.

Can't beat that price

Can't ask for more considering the price of the room. It is well located, easy to get to if traveling by car or public transportation. Had a room with a double bed, it's pretty much all that fits in the room. Add the desk and the room measures about 12x5 feet. Room is clean enough, there's nothing you won't see in your own home. If all you need is a bed to sleep on, Knights Inn is for you. For... more

Good value for the price

The room was clean and comfortable, not noisy at all. I even had a fridge in my room, but there was no fridge in my friend's room. Can walk to the bus station and the metro. Waffles for breakfast was a plus.

Perfect spot downtown

The staff was great ! The room was ok and the hotel is so close to downtown that I don't care about the rest! I'd go back there anytime.

Awful

Filthy, insulation in windows, tub was black, sketchy area. Did not even spend the night. I've seen nicer motels.

We turned around and left

Room was dirty, holes in the wall, we were exhausted and only needed a place to stay for a few hours but still turned around and found another hotel

Not very nice

The room had no window and felt very strange. There was also a strange smell coming out of the bathroom. A cheap place but definitely quite strange! And the breakfast was terrible!

Budget inn, close to the centre, ok if you don't want to spend a lot

It's at a walking distance (15 minutes) from the centre, subway stations and the Eaton centre. That and it's relatively low price is where its strong points end. The room that we stayed in, on the ground floor, was kind of depressing, with no outside view, a poor bathroom and sheets and towels that had seen better days. Its breakfast... more

Hotwire beware

At first I was rather excited about the rates that Hotwire had to offer. I run a vacation resort so I understood how good of a deal I had, price wise. This was until I found out what hotel I received. When we arrived at Knights Inn in Toronto, we were surprised to see there was no where for our... more

Good value

The hotel staffs are friendly. My only minor concern is that the window in my room on the first floor does not lock. A thin person could have crawled into the room and took my laptop.

Economical In middle of downtown

Very close to Ryerson University campus in downtown Toronto.
Relatively good location, couple of subway stations and famous Eaton shopping center are located within 15 to 20 minutes walking distance.
Though standard room was nice, clean and comfy for a single person, I found it bit smaller in size.
Choices for items in breakfast were limited but it was nice... more

The location was convenient for my business travel, but the

The location was convenient for my business travel, but the bathroom was very poor, not enough towels or bed linen provided and I had to pay parking fee to park at the hotel.

You will get what you paid for

This was the cheapest hotel in the area. I was in Toronto for a half marathon race and I just needed a place to stay for one night. I did get good rest, but this that place is not the most comfortable hotel. The room was too small and the place is old. I couldn't see through the window since the window was opaque and you can hear whatever is said in the next room. The place is well located, and... more

Hotel downtown

I would say that overall this was a mediocre place. There were no sheets on the bed or hand towels in the bathroom. I think some small things would make this stay much better

Terribly small room

WiFi no working in the room, very unhelpfull white guy in the reception desk, poor breakfast offer

Clean, pleasent stay

If you are looking for an inexpensive stay. I highly recommend this establishment. Updated, clean, good continental breakfast. The room was a bit warm with no way of regulating the heat that I could see. Air conditioner only worked on fan unless again I was doing something wrong.

Never again

We travel from NY each year for the pride event, Just a 2 night stay, my friends picked this hotel and I will never let them live it down. We had requested rooms next to each other and they put us at different locations of the hotel. THE AC DID NOT WORK - I reported it every morning to the... more

Perfect for a quick trip

I stayed here with a friend and had a wonderful experience. The staff members were extremely helpful at giving directions and recommending things to do during our stay. The rooms were clean and the bathroom was big with a nice shower. Having breakfast included was very helpful and we never had to use our car to get places once we got to Toronto. I would definitely go back and stay again!

Excelent Customer service

I've rated this place very good because me and my female buddy found it to it that category for a motel.For the price, its exceptional. The service by the two guys running it was perfect from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. (The Two ladys, not so much it's not the newest of hotels buildings or... more

Cheapest + most decent place to stay in Toronto

This is my choice motel to stay when I need to in Toronto. It's the only one I've been to that is both cheap priced, but also not horrible. For approx. $60 a night, the rooms are small (perfectly fine if all you need is a bed really), location is pretty decent... basically you get what you pay for. The... more

Value Hotel in Toronto

I needed a place to stay for a night in Toronto and didn't want to overpay for it. It is a nice budget hotel in the downtown with walking distance to the bus terminal. The room itself is small, but there was everything I need for just one night. Overall, great deal for money I paid.

For the price, it was excellent

I've rated this place excellent because we found it to be, for that category of hotel. For the price, its exceptional. The service by the two guys running it was perfect from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. (The Two ladys, not so much). It's not the newest of hotels,but we weren't paying the price for... more

Rats in the Room

RATS IN THE ROOM!
My fiancé and I woke up 2AM to a sound in our room. As we turned on the light, we saw a RAT on the small table in the room. We screamed and the rat ran under the bed. I immediately went to the night manager. The Night Manager seems uncaring and calm which had me... more

dont ever stay here

Beside having no onsite parking and having to mull your way through the hostel of hookers and pimps to get to a public parking facility, the room was baking hot with no windows. The biggest issue is THAT this motel photocopies your drivers license and crdit card to keep " on file " for 120 days !? Angainst the privacy... more

It was just ok

I was in a tiny but clean room. The stay was nice. The breakfast was very simple. No cream, only milk. The shower was extremely tiny & the shower curtain too short so when I took a shower, water ran all over the floor. But the clerk gave me some extra towels. Within walking distance of Dundas. So it was... more

Very small rooms, old hotel

The staff was very nice and helpful. The location was good, as it was in walking distance to the Eaton Center. The neighborhood is iffy. We were told by another guest not to go out at night and watch our car. The parking spaces are quite small and difficult to get into. When we checked in we were given a... more

Overall good place to stay

I stayed Knights Inn Toronto as a Ryerson student for almost one year. The staffs are all friendly and professional. I don't know why some people speak ill of this hotel. Great location, reasonable price, clean room and waffles for breakfast. I really enjoyed my stay, thanks Sam!

Worst ever

We decided last min to go to Toronto and booked this hotel. The pictures looked ok. When we got there've ask for a quiet room. Well the room was all but quiet. First night I got 3 hours sleep , door banging, water frim other rooms , people screaming, well I can not recommend this place at all. Rooms are... more

Bad Experience

I stayed there for one night. The staff were nice and helpful and the room looked OK before going to bed. The bed was full of bed bugs and I could not sleep at all. I had bites all over my neck, hands and legs. I moved to another place for the next night.
The breakfast was minimum and the... more

Super nasty-- dont stay there

Super nasty. Pictures are not even closer to the real hotel. Rooms were super small and super nasty!! Carpet was dirty, bathroom was nasty nasty nasty. Price was not fear for what I got. I would never ever stay there again, not even if it is for free.
I went there with my whole family, we had 4 rooms, and... more

Great budget hotel

We stayed for 3 nights at the Knights Inn, the room was small but clean with a comfy bed. What more do you need when you're out explorig Toronto? The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, giving advice on where to eat. The beds were made and towels replaced daily which I did not expect for a low price/budget hotel.... more

Decent room at reasonable rate

I was in Toronto for a conference during he film festival so rooms were ridiculously expensive. This room was reasonable, pretty close to conference. Near the university, not the most savoury area but not unsafe. Bed was comfortable, bathroom decent, and breakfast was a nice touch, especially make your own waffle. TV had limited stations but free internet was reasonable... more

Two visits

My wife and I stayed at the Knights Inn on two occasions. On both occasions we were quite satisfied with the Hotel.
We had read some reviews before booking that were not very complimentary. This is not a 5* hotel so expect 5* quality. It was comfortable and clean. The staff were very helpful. And self serve breakfast was ample.... more

Beware

My wife and I checked into this hotel Aug 27 at 3 pm room 105 and checked out Aug 28 at 8 am. We were in Toronto for a event at the ACC. My wife's jewelry went missing from our locked room. Very up setting. When reported to Sam at the front deck on Aug 28,we were told he would... more

Excellent value for your money

I booked late for the Labor Day wknd. Didn't read any reviews till after I booked, that's when I started to get worried, LOL
But to my surprise I had a very pleasant stay. Upon arrival I was greeted and shown to a quiet and clean room on the first floor. It was small but most rooms I've stayed in... more

Average but it's not horrible

Stayed here for 1 night while in Toronto, was a free room from our Wyndham rewards. We had to pay for parking which was stink and the parking space was limited and horrible. The person at front desk hardly spoke English which made it very annoying.
Room was OK, very small and incredibly uncomfortable bed. Not sure if weed is... more

Good for value

I stayed in the upstairs rooms. I first checked for bedbugs and found none. What I did find was a brand new mattress with a zipped up mattress cover. Furniture looked new. Bathroom old but clean. The only thing I found sketchy was the street level windows. One had ac, the other bottom was covered with chip board. There were... more

Beware of rodents

As a traveler, I am normally on a tight budget and as such I believe in ensuring that I pick locations that are close to where I need to go and are clean. They may not be the newest or grandest but once there is hot water, cable tv and air conditioning, then I can get by.
I had seen... more

7/10

I don't know why everyone is leaving such a negative comment. I stayed here over night with friends, and you literally get what you pay for (which is not bad at all). I've stayed here multiple times now, and i've never had a displeasing experience. The staff were very nice, and the rooms we stayed in were decent. It's not... more

WORST accommodations I have ever stayed at

I have stayed at hundreds of hotels, motels, inns, and hostels all over the world and this ‘inn’ rates as the lowest in all categories. First off I was embarrassed that this place existed in my country. There was no parking on sight and we had to drive a block away in a fairly ghetto neighborhood where we were asked... more

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

While I suspect they mean well the impression we got reminded me of those who arrived at the movie version. Room had electric extensions everywhere, no curtains and the air con was creating a puddle on the carpet. Apart from the small cockroach I flushed down the toilet the room was pretty clean. The breakfast of tang, brown hot water... more

Dungeon

Hotel rooms should not be located in dirty Toronto hotel basements. A campground would have been more luxurious than staying in this hotel!!
Room #50 in the basement is unbelievable!! We paid for a queen bed and ended up with a double. The tv cable and converter were missing so we couldn't watch tv. There wasn't a single hook to... more

Good place if you just need a night downtown to crash

For the price, it's a reasonable place to stay. Could use a little TLC in the way of painting or touching up little repairs, but the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable (I like firm mattresses). The bathroom was clean, the shower head was actually nice but low. The room was a bit small, but all we needed... more

First class customer service

The customer service was outstanding, the best received throughout my entire trip.
I was pleasantly surprised with the condition and comfort of the room. Perfectly adequate facilities, clean room and a comfortable night's sleep. The added bonus is downtown Toronto is right on the doorstep.
Thank you Knights Inn for making my stay so warm and welcoming.

Small rooms, Below average

We came into town for a Jays game, we basically pick a hotel on location and cheapest price, so we're not too picky and just need room to crash in after some drinking and a ballgame, concert or night out. Every other hotel near Rogers Centre was $200 or so, we got this for under $100 so can't complain. But... more

Most Enjoyable

I stayed at the Knights Inn Down Toronto, after facing the task of moving from the current hotel as it was fully booked due to some event which I didn't encounter. However I had come across the Knights Inn hotel it was a good choice as the rooms were very clean, reasonable in size, the bathroom was clean and fresh.... more

Good for the price

As my daughter was staying in Ryerson U, the location was very convenient for me to visit her. With this price, you can have a decent bed, good bath room, and helpful staff. It is worth the value. You can have a free breakfast with toast, cornflake, waffle. If you don't mind having same menu for breakfast everyday, definitely the... more

Friendly Staff, Good location

There are pretty decent rooms at this hotel, if you ask for them. They have been doing some improvements - our room for example had a totally upgraded bathroom, too bad the bedroom was just about the same size. The TV was good. The staff was very friendly & always near the front desk. We veiwed some other rooms on our way out, b/c the location & the price was very good - and just saying - some... more

Perfect

The hotel was much nicer and cleaner than I expected. The location was near downtown and easy access to stores. I had a slight problem in Toronto and the staff was great in assisting me. They were really friendly and when above and beyond to help me resolve this matter. I would recccommend this hotel and they have great customer service. The workers were caring and really helpful.

Central but not nice

It's very well located, but very bad. Breakfast was bad. Rooms were bad, but basic.

Not bad at all

Went to Toronto for SHM concert, and at first I was really skeptical of staying there because of the reviews. But being a broke uni student, we decided to try it out.
The staff were extremely accommodating, and the rooms were clean. It did not have a closet, but the rooms were decent sized, and the washrooms were hygienic. For... more

Great Staff

I quite enjoyed my stay at the Knight's Inn. I went down to Toronto early this March with my approximately 35 students from my school and program for the PDAC convention. They accommodated all of us without hassle and seemed quite happy to have us. The rooms themselves were quite cozy and clean, even though my room had a shattered... more

Let's be fair people....what exactly were you EXPECTING for less than 60 bucks a night in downtown Toronto?!?! We found the staff friendly, the room was small but clean, free internet and the continental breakfast was not bad. It was not what you'd find at the Courtyard Marriot....but it was a THIRD of the price!! If you want something better, don't be shopping for rooms under a hundred bucks... more

Clean, Budget friendly, polite staff

I stayed 2 nights in this small establishment, clean, 'no frills' budget-friendly, polite staff. It's in the heart of downtown Toronto-- within walking distance to major attractions, such as Eaton Centre & others places, & TTC transit. They have free continental breakfast; and affordable parking (compared to other local hotels & city parking).
--Although the size of my queen room... more

Close to Downtown & Helpful Staff

The hotel is very centrally located. (The Carleton Repertory Cinema is near Yonge and Carleton, a few blocks away.) Staff were hospitable and helpful. The hotel is not fancy, but it is reasonably priced and includes a continental breakfast.

Mazen--Good option for a short stay

Most of the staff are friendly and helpful.The location of this hotel is perfect, it's in the heart of the downtown.If you are going to use the room for sleeping and showering and you will spend most of your day out, then this is the right hotel. The room was clean and cozy, the breakfast is for free but very... more

The only positive part about this hotel is being relatively close to transportation and Toronto attractions. The beds were filthy, everyone on Staff was rude and gave me dirty looks besides the young guy who was there on a friday night. The bathroom was disgusting and the room smelled like paint. There was no refrigerator, but a microwave on the first floor for everyone's use. I wasn't... more

En grand progrès

Les travaux en cours font remonter la cote de cet établissement par ailleurs très bien situé.

I really had no high expectations for this room/ hotel and thats exactly what i got. Obviously a room that is not used regularly, towel rack was ripped down, i had no blinds, missing electrical outlet covers, no handle on the one drawer in the room& im pretty sure theres bloody boogers smeared on the wall.

Horrible

THe location is on a spooky street,the "hotel"looks loke an abandoned castle,has no parking,you have to pay for it.The closet in the room has no shelves,the bathroom had a hole in the wall,a glass instead of a window that never opens.the room si reallly small.The listing has faked pictures that belong to a different hotel in Arabia Saudit.

Worst hotel I ever stayed at

This hotel was disgusting..it looked more like a boarding house.

this place has a terrible bed bug problem - me and my friend got bitten a lot!!!! You could actually see the bed bugs crawling on the bed in the morning, it was disgusting. The bathrooms, the rooms, everything is disgusting! I'm used to staying in hostels that aren't the most comfortable if it saves me some money but this is NOT worth is. I couldn't wait to get out of that place, by far the... more

This place is a joke. Operated in a very unprofessional manner and must be sold to someone who really knows about hotel management for immediate renovation. I cannot really tell what I disliked about this place distinctively, because there wasn't anything good or acceptable... Everything was bad.

DONT STAY!!! It took them an 1&1.2hr to check me in, they stuffed up my booking. The room they checked me into a room that had no mattress. The rooms were disgusting, the bathroom was even WORSE. The best thing about this place is leaving!!!

A Horrible start to our holiday

On arriving at the said hotel we found building work going on in the foyer with rubble and a hole in the wall, we approached reception and handed over paperwork, after a few moments head scratching by the assistant and some discussion with an assistant(not in English) she gave us 2 sets of keys to 2 rooms on entering the 1st room we found it was already occupied, we went back to the desk and... more

when you don't have much money

This was the third time I've stayed at this hostel, and I was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating the man working behind the desk was. He upgraded our room for free because they hadn't filled all the rooms, and was very helpful in answering our questions. The beds were pretty uncomfortable, but they were clean, and we had clean towels. In the past, my room had been dirty and there were... more

Stay here if your vaccinations are current.

The only good thing about this hotel is the location. Very central and close to the subway. The hotel itself was horrible. Cockroaches in the bathroom. Bedbugs in the bed. Loud obnoxious kids in the hallway all night. Room was not cleaned the next day. A bag of trash was left in front of our door in the morning. Parking lot is big enough for 6 cars only and you must pay an additional fee to use... more

Great price, staff, location, room, etc.

..amenities, outdoor appearance, indoor appearance (fairly good).. I was in town for a soccer tournament on a limited budget. It's not a ritzy hotel, but it fulfilled my needs well while considering my monetary limitations. On a side note, a raccoon casually passed me as I strolled in late at night, but someone had left food out front, so can ya blame the animal?Overall, I would recommend... more

Small, dirty, creepy

It doesn't look bad from the outside. However, when we checked in, I could tell right away that the place was a dive. Check in was very slow. While standing there, waiting for the lady to check us in, I noticed the monitor that displays various sections of the hotel. Not only was it never looked at, it was flickering so bad that you couldn't really see much. The place was so old that they... more

way overpriced for what you ge

way overpriced for what you get.....room was never cleaned or sheets changed in 6 days...no clock or radio....more like a rundown hostel....breakfast was a joke....never again

Dirt

Terrible, very dirty, bad smell, broken bed, they don't clean the air for many years.the breakfast was 2 pancakes.I've been in so many hotels, but any one was like this.

The issues are:
the room has

The issues are:the room has no option to open the window; all walls MUST be painted; some electrical staff (wall outlets) must be fixed (there is a hole in the wall!), carpet to be replaced; washroom doesn't have a power outlet; the bed looks not fresh-we run to Wallmart and bought new bed to put on the top of existing; also we bought new towels and Fantastic to clean the bathroom; breakfast is... more

My feedback from stay at Downtowner Inns

I can't even find words to describe my stay at the hotel. I checked in around midnight Friday night. The guy at the front desk was so impersonal and not at all courteous. I must say that this is the worst service I have ever received and I'm not exaggerating. He gave me the keys for room 25 which was dirty, the sheets for the bed hadn't been changed and there was a black bin bag with rubbish in... more

Dirty

Carpets and towels dirty. It needs a lot of maintenance.

small room, tv that didn't work

small room, tv that didn't work very well, bathroom was not very clean, good location and cheap for downtown toronto

The reception staff were very

The reception staff were very helpful.The room was ok but could do with decorating.Location was good - only a short walk from the main streets

Not Bad for the Price for Toronto

no water glasses or drinking cups provided in the room. Either bring your own cup or glass or bottled water. Though they provide a bar of soap and towel, their are no washcloths.

not for families/couples but nice staff

They had no idea we were coming. The reservation had not made it to them. They weren't sure if we had paid or not. The staff were nice enough to take our word on it. Very limited parking, 4 -5 spots. Was given a spot to park in and got a parking ticket. The staff member did say he would take care of the ticket as it was their property. I will check with the Toronto by-law later this week to see... more

propreté et qualité du petit déjeuner

propreté et qualité du petit déjeuner à revoir.Bon emplacement en centre ville, quartier calme

lack of information in the hotel.

lack of information in the hotel. space constraints and morning breakfast was not standard.

never again

this hotel is converted from a old house and sevices mostly to students wşth a very tight budget. I've seen many dorm rooms. I've stayed in a single room. The location is not central and you walk a lot. Or you pay for a taxi and that brings the total cost same as a centrally located hotel. There are no subway stations close. the room needed urgent paint and there was a heavy moisture smell... more

Inn from Hell

First off, there was nothing in their profile to indicate they were doing major renovations during our stay. The tv in my room did not work, the bathroom doors, as well as the room doors, did not close properly. There was no contintental breakfast to speak of. Their idea of a refrigerator and microwave was in the community room. The only internet connection they had was also in this room,... more

ok for the money

It was neither bad nor good. The room was clean, however, you have to request room service daily. The staff was friendly. The bed was uncomfortable, but I would stay there again.

What a nightmare !

* This is not a hotel, how can you rate it ** ? * There was no parking ! The receptionist asked me to park my car about 10 minute walk, then next morning i got a warning from the parking lot. * room properties are very ugly and poor, no phone, no shampoo What a nightmare !!!!!! (There're still some things: TV, comprehensive breakfast, computer room with internet.)

Do not stay here!

My husband and I decided to stay here on our recent trip to Toronto. Based on what I had read on sidestep and the "inns" website, it looked clean, reasonable, and what we were looking for. When we got there, we had to shovel our own parking place (and pay $10 for it) and checked into our room. It was ok. The room came with two towels and a little bar of soap. The TV did not work, there was no... more
