A clean inexpensive place to stay, dorm room feel minus the craziness of dorm life. Also cleaner than 70% of 4 star hotels. Check my view by the way both zoom & reg.

Not a perfect res experience, certainly not a perfect building design. But they try, can you realistically ask for more?
Location is good! Close to Chinatown. Lots of restaurants there. You got a single room for about 50 CAD. Toilet was a bit far from my room. It was clean. The shared kitchen was a mess. The staff were ok
Pro - I stayed at 45 Willcocks/New College III building. GREAT STAFF! central location (510 streetcar stops right outside the door, a few minutes to Spadina TTC station, near main streets: Spadina, Bloor, Yonge, Bay, Queens Park), cheap accommodations (cheaper than Massey College where I usually stay who went up on their rates), quiet in summer months so you don't have to share bathroom/showers with a lot of people (at least not in New College III); FREE internet access via wifi or ethernet (free if you have your own cord, but 5 to rent one from them); access to kitchen/fridge (if you want to cook or store leftovers)- tv is also in that room; laundry room on each floor; study rooms are available if you need them; cafeteria in the 40 willcocks building Cons: 1) extremely small rooms (I guess I was spoiled by the room plus sitting area offered at Massey College just up the street) 2) ethernet streaming buffers frequently (annoying when watching news or movies) 3) The towel that's provided is only a little bigger than a hand towel so BRING YOUR OWN! You only get the one - no face towel. 4) Beds are firm so you may need to use 1 or both blankets as a kind of mattress cover/cushion so BRING YOUR OWN blanket. If you like firm beds, you'll be fine. 5) breakfast only in summer (no lunch or dinner on site except for summer camps), but it ends at 9:30am not 10am as I was told - buffet style 9, but I don't think there's a lot of hot options
Great memories of my student stage. It is a place that takes me to my professional beginnings. Fantastic University of Toronto.
A good place tu stay. The breakfast is excelent!
Not the cleanest! but good value for money in the summer months.
Stayed there great time with our students
