I had a mixed experience at the hostel. On one hand, the space was incredibly modern and my room was well-equipped with cozy beds and privacy curtains. On the downside, I encountered a serious issue with my booking at another place, which left me in a dirty room for a night. Overall, it's a decent place if you get the right room and don't mind a bit of urban atmosphere.

My stay at the hotel was definitely a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, making it easy to grab food and drinks, and there were some really great amenities like complimentary breakfast and a strong Wi-Fi connection. However, the room conditions left much to be desired, with some serious temperature issues and lack of basic privacy. Overall, at 60 bucks a night, I can't complain too much, but better upkeep would elevate the experience.

I had a wonderful experience at The Clarence Park. The location is truly unbeatable, just a short walk from the Union train station and with a view of the CN Tower from my room. The staff made my stay enjoyable with their helpfulness, but there were times when it felt a bit noisy, which is somewhat expected in a hostel environment. Overall, it was a great value for money, and I would definitely return.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The location was fantastic, with easy access to public transport and nearby grocery stores. However, check-in was quite chaotic, and I faced issues with my reservation that made my first night very uncomfortable. While the dorms were spacious and clean, I felt the service could definitely improve.
