Won't stay there again.
Pros:

The staff Adeta was very pleasant and professional. Location of the guesthouse is central and not far from museums, other attractions.

Cons:

My so called "Deluxe room" was anything but. It was tiny and located in the attic with the roof creating low headrooms over the bed and in the bathtub/shower. You can hit your head on both even if you are not very tall. On top of that, a spare bed was stored inside the room instead of in a storage room. This made the room even smaller and prevented access to part of the tiny closet. There was a mouse trap in the corner of the room. There was only one folding chair to sit on. There is no lounge in the building so that you can at least go and sit there. The frig was very noisy. There is no sound insulation between rooms or floors so you hear every sound that any other guest makes. There was no vanity in the bathroom. No bottle of water, no shampoo even though the owner calls the soap dispenser in the shower "soap and shampoo". There was no second lock on the room door, a real issue for a single female traveller. It's a block away from a very nasty part of Yonge st. full of garbage and shuttered stores. Overall it was a depressing place to stay.

good value for money but it has room to improve.
Pros:

location and price. Quiet neighbourhood. Staff Adetta (probably mis-spelling it) was very attentive, pleasant, and accommodating.

Cons:

The lack of any kind of a lounge so that you can have a place to sit. The lack of basics such as shampoo, bottle of water, hangers in closet. Lack of safety latch on the room door doesn't make a single female traveler feel safe, no vanity in bathroom, there is a mouse trap in the corner of the room. A spare bed was stored in the room instead of a storage room.

Highly recommendable.
Pros:

Location and easy check-in when I asked for an earlier time.

Cons:

I had to ask for directions on how to use the tv as I couldn't get it to work. I also found that the warm water took forever to come although eventually it got warm in the shower.

Pleasant
Pros:

Good security. Room was quiet. Window opened.

Cons:

Room was small and set up awkward. Poor desk lighting. No bedside table. I was concerned about the number of power cords coming off one outlet below the desk.

It's a good guest house, in a central area, & I would stay there again.
Pros:

The staff member was very pleasant & helpful, the location was close to a very good pub, the room was cozy, &
the bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The fan in the bathroom went on with the light switch, so you couldn't turn it off, as it didn't have it's own switch !
Plus it was quite loud.
