Clarence Castle is in good location and has a paid parking spot. But the rooms were just horrible. It was so dark in the room and the space was terribly small.You couldn't do any thing but staying on the bed. They had a weird air conditioner that couldn't make the room cool down and kept making annoying noises! The beds... More

The room was dingy with no window, only a glass door so there was no way to get any fresh air safely at night. The breakfast was a note saying make your own cereal. There were threatening notes up elsewhere about what not to do, and there were large stains on the sofa. All this would have been tolerable, except... More

This has definately the worst hostel ihave stayed in for value for money. We booked a double room with ensuite. The 'ensuite' was across a corridor and shared by another 'ensuite'' room, when the owner/ manager was challenged by this and also the fact they hadnt made the bed or were willing to provide duvet covers, he tried to make...

I have stayed at numerous hotels and hostels in Toronto, as I come to visit friends, shop, and to experience the culture of Toronto. I would definitely stay this is the worst place I have ever stayed and I regret not staying elsewhere, as the staff made me extremely uncomfortable on more than one occasion. I was in town this...

I stayed at Clarence Castle from the 11th of September to the 19th and felt mediocre. First of all, it's a hostel so you cannot expect grand accomodation and I believe i received what I paid for. Secondly, am I the only one who is immune to bed bugs? Seriously i don't know what everyone is talking about. Pros: Location... More

On a scale between 0 and 10 points, we would have given 4 points at first. The reason for this was unfriendly staff. We also did not get the rooms we had asked for. "Breakfast" means that you can use some of the tea bags that you can find in the kitchen. Some years ago the hostel was much better.... More

A collection of different employees man the computer at Clarence Castle, and while some are eloquent and kind, at least one doesn't seem to be aware of the hostel's policies. The first night we were supposed to stay there, we had to cancel late because our cars breaks went out on the way. We were told that if we emailed... More

It's a quite nice hostel, but the rooms are far too small!!! Rooms are clean, have their private bathroom and are cleaned every day. But the atmosphere in the hostel in general is not that good. Compared to other hostels we didn't feel comfortable during our stay

After spending an actually nice couple of days at Clarence Castel in May 2012 my friend and me made a very negative discovery when we arrived home and got our credit card bill. They deducted our whole stay ALTOUGH we paid in cash during our stay and even that we clarified in the beginning, that the creditcard information would just... More
