I rent a room at this complex from 2017-2021 so this gives me enough time to explain everything about this horrible business.
I usually tend to suggest a business in the end but I have to say this here: DO NOT EVEN USE THIS PLACE'S PUBLIC PARKING, LET ALONE RENTING A ROOM.
Starting with a horrible and unsafe location, being far from the McMaster University and other colleges, lack of proper access to public transportation (that is never on-time, unless you want to miss your test or class). Then go inside, they say they have renovated the lobby. However, they have painted the walls and moved couple of stuff around. The elevators are still slow, dirty, and smelly! This place is the first place in my entire life that I would take the stairs instead of the elevators.
Then you get to the amenities that are never open, except for the time they show you the building. After you walk by the garbage chute that disgusts you because their maintenance never do their job properly (they are good at charging you tho). I swear sometimes you feel like you are in the garbage dump, not the garbage chute when you go there. And then you get to your room, it's either too hot or too cold as they never care to fix the air conditioning. Moreover, the living room design is absolutely unpleasant. The material used in this complex are probably the worst ever, everything tends to break so fast. And do not ever go to washroom, even if you currently living there. The toilets are unsanitary and good luck if you can even flush. Now it's time for the room. Good luck opening the windos, they are tiny and never fully open as if you are in a jail. And the rooms have the worst lighting ever, always depressing.
Now let's get to the pricing:
Get ready to pay an overpriced fee for your room (you can literally find a proper room Almost ANYWHERE ELSE!). You pay almost 800$ for a 4-room unit, you can even get a place with that money in downtown Toronto!
Now there are so many hidden fees here too, the security deposit, move in and move out, and other weird costs for them to rip you off. And their public parkings if you curious charges you as if you get a valet. But No! You have to park your car in an outdoor parking and anyone has access to it.
Now you might ask why did you stay for 4 years?
I wanted to move out but they are smart when they design their contracts. They put a hidden article that if you want to move out you have to be at least a year ahead. And this makes it extremely difficult for you to move out like any other place in Ontario.
Unless you want to pay much, experience the worst, being treated horribly by their rude staff, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! read more
