Pros. Close to city centre, a short walk from City Hall CTrain station and the 300 bus to airport. Free breakfast is basic - bagels, bread, frozen waffles, but free is free! Clean rooms, clean bathroom, and a fantastic tv lounge in the basement

Cons. Would love more regular hostel initiated events to take advantage of the large lounge
