The Best Downtown Accommodation For...
Liked: This is my fourth stay at Chestnut Residence. I always feel welcome by the staff. They remembered me by name, so that was a plus. I am accommodated with my particular illnesses, which puts my mind at ease, and makes my stay that much more enjoyable.I've had four different rooms, so I can give a well-rounded review. These rooms are no nonsense. It is a residence throughout the year, and I'm sure the students aren't very easy on their rooms. Yes, it used to be a hotel, and they are in the process of renovating the rooms. Some have some small holes in the wall - those holes can be from screws being removed from walls to one that was the size of a dime in the washroom - as others have noted. They make is sound like you can climb into the next room. Nothing of the sort.You also have to remember your location. There is no way you're getting this price at the Sheraton, Marriott, etc. The room quality is not the same as those establishments either. If you want a posh spot in the heart of the core, then look elsewhere.However, if you want a safe place to hang your hat that is less than a five minute walk to the Eaton Centre (two to three minutes for this fast walker) with a friendly staff and an eclectic mix of guests, then this is the place for you. I met business professionals, tourists, people who were there for medical visits and more. I spoke my native tongues (Francais and English), as well as Spanish, Italian and Japanese. I'm sure I could have spoken many more, but they're the only ones I know.Final thought: I love staying here and will continue to do so. I don't need a lot of fuss - just a clean place to sleep that's close the everything. I used to live in Toronto so I know how hard it is to find a decent room for an affordable price. There are plenty of 500+ dollar a night (and more) hotels in the heart of the city. There are also a lot of hostels that are cheaper (and sketchy) compared to Chestnut Residence.
