The Parkdale Hostellerie

The hostel was much better than I expected based on other reviews. It’s quiet, clean, and the clear rules really help everyone get along. Showers are warm, and you can save money by bringing your own towel. The kitchen is well equipped, and the rooms have small lockers (just bring your own padlock). I also appreciated having charging outlets right at the bed, including USB-A. Overall, a great stay and definitely worth the money.

Receptionist really friendly and I got an upgrade to sleep in an empty room. Because in the mixed dorm were just men. That was really kind of the receptionist. But the hostel in general is far away from downtown and the people in the hostel are weird and looking like homeless. I didn’t feel comfortable so I was really happy to sleep alone in the room.

It wasn't a good experience, we booked three nights but it was terrible, so we only stayed for one night then we booked a hotel instead. It was dirty and there was hair on the bed. The pillows and bedding are Gross. We didn't use the blanket and pillows at all. We Don't Not recommend here.

Worst experience of my life! I've never seen a hostel as poorly maintained and ugly as this one. Don't be fooled by well-taken photos, the reality is different. The entrance is on a side street that is dark and does not transmit security. When entering, you need to climb two flights of a steep ladder with your suitcase in a totally uncomfortable way and with the risk of falling down the stairs. The reception is next to the TV room. Simply creepy. To have free access to and from the hotel, you need to leave a deposit of 20 dollars at the reception. For real??? I don’t want to stay out of the hostel waiting for someone to open the door for me. And for that freedom I had to pay 20 bucks. Now what to say about the dormitory... there is no other word that defines it better: it's terrible. There is no place to leave your suitcase, the beds swing when you need to climb the bunk bed and the pillow is thinner than paper. If you are a woman, travelling alone and want to feel safe, know that this is not the place for you.

I pay a small amount for a room for myself and it's fine I really don't understand the bad comments it's cheap and the location it's really good you have many things near so everything it's fine. I never use the shower it's only thing I can't say a word of it. Then the personal was really nice :) I don't know the name but I bet she was European like all european people I know super friendly. If I come back to the city I will coming back here

It was better than I thought. I have arrived here 8:00 pm and the room was dark and most of people were sleeping with big snoring. You need earplugs for sure!! Many people snoring in this hostel. I found a receipt and tissue which was used in my bed. That is disappointing. One guy came to me at midnight and he said this bed is his. I couldn’t sleep very well. Toilet was clean and just a night stay is ok. If you want to stay clean, go other hostel.

Depressing place. Feels and looks like a flop house. Rugs old and dirty, walls unpainted and dirty. Need to get rid of the tv room completely as it attracts undesireable people and behaviour, right in the main receprion area, and next to a sleeping area. Bathrooms reasonable clean and modern. Rooms modest. Redeeming feature top deck. Do not book through the Parkdale Hostellerie site, it caculates price incorrectly. Booking through a booking site will get you better rates. However not a great place to stay more than a night and only if needed.

The hostel was much better than expected from other reviews. Quiet, clean and with clear rules that make the residents get along fine. The showers are warm but save money if you bring your own towel, the kitchen well equipped. In the room small locker, bring your own padlock. Charge outlets at the bed, for USB A aswell. It is well worth the money.

They really should work on their entrance/exterior. It looks like a place where you go to get butchered. My Uber driver was concerned about it too. Interior is ok. ONE functioning light bulb in my room. Shower stall missing a knob and corners lined with mold. Lockers the size of a passport and no lock. Won't miss this place

This hostel was only okay. It was very loud and the people didn't seem to understand the consideration of others that should go into staying in a hostel. The beds were surprisingly comfortable and the shower had good pressure and temperature. They make you take your shoes off at the front door here which I didn't love. They did have lockers here but not enough for everyone and some were zip tied close so I had to leave my bag and hope no one would take anything. It's close to the street car so access to the city is super convenient. For $40.00 a night I have slept at better places but it's not the worst.
