Toronto Metropolitan University-International Living Learning Residence

Hotel

We stayed here for a night as we had one day transit at Toronto. Our plans for the evening was messed up due to delayed check-in. It took 45 mins to give us the keys for the room that we booked months ago. Other than this, everything else was good. Receptionist was very kind.

Very good residence for students!

This place is a steal for the price they charge and the facilities they provide. Located in the heart of the city at 500 m from Dundas Square. The staff is very friendly. Breakfast could be better by adding more options for vegetarians. The level of cleanliness in rooms can be improved. Overall, an amazing budget property to stay at.

Remember that these are student dorms during spring and fall, so do not expect it to be a fancy hotel. I stayed here for 4 nights to attend a conference at RU, and I would say it served its purpose. Rooms have a good size, mine had a queen bed, a large desk, a small closet and a fair sized drawer. It was very clean, with some stains in the carpet; the bathroom was clean and everything worked fine. The bed was comfortable, but maybe the pillows were a bit thin, I had to use both. The air conditioning is a bit noisy, but it works just fine. There is no Wi-Fi in the rooms, but you can get wired internet by the desk. The staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast could be improved by adding some fruit other than apples. The breakfast is great, but it gets monotone real fast. Everyday you get eggs (they rotate between scrambled, fried well done or sunny side up), potatoes (some variant of hash brown) and pancakes (or french toast or waffles). And you can get coffee, yogurt, milk, canned juice, cereal, toast and apples. I think it is a great place to stay, I give it four stars mainly because of the breakfast, which makes you feel heavy most of the morning.

Its a hostel and not a hotel. Keeping that in kind its good for the price and location.

Couldn't imagine a better residence. Have seen many campus dorms and this Ryerson University space when compared is unlike anything you likely would have seen. As a converted hotel each student has a private room and bathroom. Plus A common kitchen on each level. Hang out space and food services on the main floor. It is pricey but somehow priceless.
