We arrived at our accommodations booked through Expedia. Our accommodations are at 38 Kensington Place in Toronto. I cannot fully and accurately express the level of disappointment and disgust when we arrived. The accommodations are not in the least bit accurately reflected on the Expedia website. The “locked” front gate has a screw through the lock so the whole premises is unsecured. There were pubic hairs in the beds. There were weird stains in the bedding. The bedside tables were FULL of garbage (including women’s sanitary products). The “kitchen” was a folding table, mini fridge, and microwave. The couch is broken (the whole side is completely broken off). The air vents are smashed. Everything is really dirty. The “balcony” is absolutely COVERED in bird poo and is otherwise unusable. I have photos that I will endeavor to share in hopes that you can look at them before you EVER consider staying here!! Upon arrival, I opened a chat with an Expedia representative. They contacted the owner of the accommodations and asked them to reach out to us. They did reach out and switched us to another unit. The ONLY reason that helped is because the accommodations were all attached in one unit. The first unit had one of my kids sleeping in another locked door unit without us?!? DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

DO NOT STAY HERE! NOT SAFE OR CLEAN!!
We had a HORRIBLE experience here. Our first unit had NO AC and wasn’t the cleanest. The shower curtain was so brown and dirty. We were transferred to another unit after we came back from our night event. When we got back around 4am, the door to the new unit was difficult as if it was being blocked closed and THERE WAS A MAN IN THE BED. He had taken a shower and gotten really comfortable. The 24/7 “helpline” wasn’t any help with getting fresh sheets, towels or about our security concerns. We were told nothing could be done until the morning. Come morning, there was NO HOT WATER. We didn’t get any response from the customer service line ALL DAY even when I’ve reached out to them multiple times. After a disrespectful encounter with a man who claimed to be the supervisor at the property (turns out he wasn’t the supervisor, just posing as one) and the “maintenance man” (who turned out to be the man in the bed), we packed up our bags and left. Comments were made about my nationality. And I believe he kicked my car while in the garage! WE DID NOT FEEL SAFE OR COMFORTABLE. It’s been about 2 weeks since we checked out early and I’m STILL getting the run around from the hotel about my compensation. DO NOT STAY HERE!

You get what you pay for, it was pretty clean and everything worked properly. A little confusing to find. However we had a good time, we wanted to explore the city and this was a cheap place to stay. Would stay here again

Avoid if possible
Hotel listed is a scam and does not look like photos posted online. While inside of the apartments is moderately clean, area is unsecured with both front doors being unlocked/ lacking the ability to be locked. Alongside that, the bathroom is more a closet with no barrier for the water alongside being next to the toilet.

The apartment is in terrible shape and management is horrible. When I stepped into the apartment I noticed the window was broken and was on the floor and glass shattered all where. Management provided me another room. In that room none of the wall electric were working, TV was not working, Lamps were not work. Sent pictures and Complained to the management but no one listened, nor repaired nor changed the room. So my vacation in Toronto was completely ruined because of that stay. My hotel stay cost should be refunded back to me.

A group of me and my friends 20(F)- 24(F) booked this property for my birthday. The pictures made the property look clean, safe and well maintained. we arrived later into the evening and to our dismay the property looks even worse in the dark. the property itself is in an unlit alleyway, even with our phone flashlights we were unable to light up the property well. the keypad to the complex was broken and anyone could walk into the complex. our door was kicked in. some aspects of the unit itself were okay but not quite as pictured. our main issue was safety, it felt like anyone could get into our unit to take our stuff or worse. upon contacting expedia as we decided we were not safe to stay at this property we were told that we would not receive a refund and they would follow the same day cancellation policy. spend a little more money to find somewhere safer if you can.

The beds are very comfy and the people gave good directions and info to get to the suite but the front door to the apartment isn’t locked nor is the door on the upper level and when we arrived to the suite it looked like someone tried to kick the door in - big hole in the door and the door handle was loose - until these things are fixed I would not recommend as the unit and building does not feel safe and secure.

Cute, spacious but no temp control in unit
Was surprised to find full kitchen and dining room with 2 bedrooms in apartment style. Cons - Shower had no stall and drain in floor so whole bsthroom flooded when using; heat/ac control was apparently in another unit so had to keep messaging property manager asking to have it adjusted Pros - clean, full kitchen with fridge/stove/dishes/cookware; good price; excellent location; parking garage (call to confirm availability of spaces since less spaces than units); lots of cool vintage shops nearby A little difficult to find, kind of a back alley side street. Nicely removed from busy Kensington Market. Like a 30 second walk from quiet alley entrance to busy market street. I liked to sit out in step and have coffee in am.

Good location - pretty grimy, dirty lane access, lots of colourful characters but didn’t feel unsafe. Booked apartment for 5. Weird configuration with entry up a set of stairs shared with another apartment and our apartment split off two rooms at the top. To secure these you have to lock both doors. Main queen beds nice and comfortable, fold out couch in lounge area was broken, and hot water not working but staff shifted us another functional apartment within the hr. AC in windowless living room sounded like a jet engine so hard to hear TV - sofa bed very hard and uncomfortable with no bedding. Despite what is shown on listing no kitchen facilities except for a bar fridge, microwave, toaster and jug and table with collection of tea and coffee supplies. Generally pretty worn but clean. Good location with lots of bars and restaurants around. Would not recommend for any more than 4 people unless some is really into self punishment on uncomfortable sofas.

Kensington Market Location, Toronto
The location was perfect; easy to access buses, light rail transport, and Uber. The Neighbourhood I would describe is hippieish. Lots of graffiti on the outside of the buildings. The price was definitely reasonable. The inside was fine. The pictures are a good representation of what it looks like; although there is no living room. The beds were comfortable. The washroom very small, and the shower was on the small side as well. The kitchen stove was dirty, along with the stove top (greasy and the elements very dirty). The basic needs of utensils and cups were not met. Only had one spoon and one glass cup. Owners to need to replenish these items. Noise level is something else. You could hear the garage door open and close every time someone used it. The neighbours standing outside the bedroom window at 1:00 am you could hear them talking. The neighbours above us, you could hear them walking around. The people leaving in the morning; you could hear their suitcases rattling down the stair ways. So it is definitely a noisy place. Customer Service, meaning the check-in information, door codes etc were given by Whatsapp - which was fine.
