It was very easy, no problems checking. It was just what I needed, a quick get away from the world for some much needed R&R.

The bed was hard and I didn't sleep at all because I didn't feel comfortable in the house at all.

8/10 Very good

It is a quiet and safe space to spend the night. There are cameras in the common areas so you don't have to worry who enters your room. It is not perfectly clean but considering the price it was a pleasant stay.

The property owner is purposely deceitful. He advertises the the Markham address but he has no rooms available. The actual address is 1 Purcell is Scarborough. Those in Toronto know how unsafe Scarborough could be. I will be writing an official complaint letter to Expedia.
Saeid, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

It was an horrible experience I had ever in my life. This is just an House and One person is staying in same building to manage the rooms. He was quite frustrating person I hope. He has installed 10~15 CCTV cameras in one floor still he keeps on physically monitoring every second about activities. Rooms are very dirty and bathrooms are on shared basis (which he did not mentioned on website) and very cramp and very dirty. No handwash/toilet paper/towels/paper napkin etc. No house keeping/cleaning including lobbies etc. Horror House after dark as he switch off all the lights at all the times even in night. So very dangerous for everyone at night to get enter in the house or to operate the bathroom at night hours etc as no light has been permitted.

10/10 Exceptional

Most likely the most quiet place I've stayed. The room is spacious and the bed firm and comfortable. I just stayed for the night though would return for any jobs in the area. Parking is not a problem.
Stephen, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The wall-mounted panels, which appeared to be intended for noise cancellation, were purely decorative and provided no noticeable sound reduction. Noise from the upper level was clearly audible throughout the stay, even at midnight. Additionally, parking was limited, and the situation was further impacted by the fact that the owner sleeps on the property, occupying one of the already scarce parking spots, which further reduced availability for guests.

6/10 Good

When I Indicated to the Landlord that one of the Tenants was being Very NOISY, he Spoke with her Immediately, and when she Refused to Comply, he Kindly Asked her to Leave! I was able to Wash and Dry my Clothes at a Reasonable Price. The Landlord Needs to Do the Following concerning the Noise: 1. Softer Slippers 2. Put a Sign stating: Tenants are to Walk Softly, and. Not Run Up and Down the Stairs 3. Carpet the Stairwell. It's Wooden and therefore Makes Plenty Noise when walking or Running on it.

Anthony, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We booked a room at Markham, Toronto, Ontario. After driving for approximately five hours, we arrived at the specified address and contacted the landlord. To our dismay, he informed us that they were fully booked and only had one room left in the basement. Despite my request to inspect and stay in the basement room, he denied us and forced us to relocate to another address. The alternative property was located at Scarborough, which is known to be a dangerous area in Toronto. With no other available accommodations, we reluctantly accepted the change. The room and the bed sheets were dirty, the driveway was blocked, the front door left open which was not secured, the noise levels were unbearable with fighting, running, and screaming occurring throughout the night. So, my wife was terrified, crying the entire night, and neither of us were able to sleep. I will write an official complaint letter to the Expedia CA’s customer service to address this issue and follow up with them to pay more attention to these kinds of landlords.
