Neill-Wycik Reviews

Lived here for a semester and a half and wow... this place is literally jail. You have to show your ID to enter-like jail. The rooms are like cell bunks, and you have 2-6 cell mates per unit. The units are even alphabetized like jail- I was in 6J. The quality of living is absolutely horrendous (Cockroaches) and the upper management and security force is shady and corrupt. I have seen eye-witness the security manager Rod illegally entering my roommates room at 3 in the morning and telling him to leave because he is trespassing. I have seen the letter the housing director Noreen addressed to that same person telling him he has officially 1 day to move out. Both of those things are 100% ILLEGAL regardless of any rules that supersede the Housing Act. Truly a nightmare, but for cheap rent in the downtown core- you get what you pay for.

You really get what you pay for at this place. The rooms are tiny and hot, with no AC, they smell damp, and house keeping stole my friend's Nike sandals while we were out for the day! There is a cool view of the city from the roof, but all in all, do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.

Great value. Convenient to a have a kitchen and downtown proximity. Penthouse lounge great view

Really nice and cheap
Excellent view

Very friendly staff and security, great place to explore Toronto. My mixed 4 bed room was equipped with single beds. 4 bedrooms share 2 toilets+showers and a kitchen w. A big clean fridge and huge freezer. Good breakfast :-)

The rooms did the trick. Single bed, with basic linens. The mattresses are what you would expect for a dorm room. The pillows were a little weird (air like). The shared washrooms were the grosses things ever. The showers looked like they had never been cleaned before. Mold and rust everywhere in the shower.

The breakfast was decent. You got 5 items for free including drinks. The wifi was okay. It was definitely spotty at times.

Good location and decent for the price.

Good:
Cheap price, a decent location and friendly staff. Keep in mind that this is normally a university dorm, so things are real basic and a bit beat up. If you're over 30, you'll probably be the oldest person in the breakfast room.

Bad:
This place is in desperate need of basic paint and maintenance. Broken doorknob and outlets, loud sticking doors, old blankets and a window that hardly shut.
It'd be nice to see more variety in the continental breakfast too. You have a choice of cereal, a few baked goods and cola. Very carb heavy.

i cried in the bathroom for two hours after realizing that i cant fly... :-(

They say you get what you pay for, but this is a bit below that. The building is old, run-down, the showers are horrible, and the rooms are drab and lacking in pretty much everything. The check in and out lines are a nightmare as well. After staying here, I would have to say that you should find something that costs a bit but offers something more.
