Close enough to parking options with parking garage about half a block a way. Decent area. Had minor hiccup with dying battery on door lock but other than that good stay. Staff were real friendly and excellent to me the whole time.

Not great.

I'm not sure if the place is under new management or just has new staff, but every other time I've stayed here has been great. This time, I never saw anyone when I came in; the guy working walked into the WOMEN'S room on my second day with no regard as to the fact that someone (me) was in the shower; and when I checked out, I left a few minutes after 11 am and still hadn't seen the cleaning staff. The floor seemed to have not been cleaned in a couple of days either, since my socks had a layer of dirt on them from walking around while I was packing to leave. Definitely not a good stay this time.

A cozy room

I've stayed at the Palmerston in the dormatories several times for work and wanted to check of one of their suites. I was pleased to get a cozy room with a kitchenette, hot shower and a soft cozy bed for the weekend ! A concert within fifteen minute walk Saturday and I finished a novel on a peaceful Sunday. A great cafe across the corner ( and an A&W downstairs as well) and parking close for an early getaway. The Palmerston is a good deal.

Night on the town.

This convenient location provides a good bed and a toilet and shower in each room. There is internet access that is reliable as well. The price is right and leaves money for fun on Queen Street anf downtown !

Don't know how to say a traveler hostel is good, but certainly better than some i have been too, staff are friendly, and the female owner i met today was very pleasant, and a busy gal, stairs are quite steep and plenty of them, so if you have trouble with stairs there is no elevator here or wheelchair access! As far as i am aware, but don't hesitate to give them a call or email as i have not looked out back of the building in case they got one hidden away!

No bathroom sink in the bathroom is very inconvenient, rather it is in the main dorm room with sleeping guests. Lack of heat is a major issue, and the one small space heater provided in the room does all but nothing. No discernable central heating. For the amount guests are paying to stay, the only reason for not keeping the rooms at an adequate temperature in the dead of winter is greed.

The soap in the room had a very unpleasant smell, and since I had forgotten to bring my own soap, it was quite bothersome. The lighting in the room was also very dim. However, overall, considering the price, everything was clean and decent. The bathroom, in particular, was very clean and had a pleasant scent upon arrival.
