Jarvis House

Toronto

Property very tired and in need of updating.  Carpet in room I was in stained and dirty.  Furnishings stained.  Shower stall EXTREMELY small.  This is not a B&B.  No breakfast on offer.  Sheets clean and bed firm.  They want longer term bookings and are not interested in bookings for one or two nights.  Room 3 directly on busy street with lots of traffic noise 24/7.  I would not recommend.

very tired

I have been living there for a whole week. 
Really, the worst hostel that I ever have seen in my life. Stuff ( one old man who never smiles) answered on my  question about how the front door opens like "Oh, what a problem you are for me". Sorry, what?! Air conditioner in my room worked by itself. So it was cold like a hell or hot any time. Simlpy, don't do that for yourself.

Never never again

This place is more than disgusting, with its floors still dragged by chaff and mud, and the harvest is everywhere in the bathroom, and the walls are not isolated, and the noise is not heard, and the weather is not regulated, and you will want to run away.

I NEVER did

We spent four nights at Jarvis House on a recent summer getaway to Toronto.  The good:  Excellent location and unbeatable price (about $115 US per night, including parking, for a room with king bed and adjoining bathroom).  If you're okay climbing two steep, narrow stairways, Room 9 on the third floor was exceptionally quiet as it faces the back and does not share common walls with other guest rooms.  Now the bad:  This is NOT a hotel.  The only staff we ever saw was an inept young man sent over to let us in on a Saturday afternoon.  No maid service, of course, but a handwritten sign pinned to the bedsheet that serves as a door to the basement linen closet admonishes guests NOT to take extra bedding or towels.  It's also NOT a B&B.  Although some other commenters praised the morning coffee, there was no food service offered.  Your first vision upon entering is a filthy, stained carpet on the stairs.  Bring your own soap and shampoo.  The cheap plastic venetian blinds did little to keep out the morning sunshine.  The king bed was lumpy.  Wireless internet was sporadic.  So, if you're not too picky about accommodations, shopping for a bargain in central Toronto, and not planning to spend much time in your room, Jarvis House might be ideal, but we won't stay there again.

Caution!

At check-in, we find out they are no longer serving breakfast (huh?) You're listed as a B&B...

We literally took down the shower curtain - it was covered in mold.

A/C not blowing cold air.

Couldn't find a roll of toilet paper to save our lives, nor the hostess, so we bought our own at the convenience store down the street.

Filthy and unattended.

Never again

After a long road trip around the Great Lakes we wanted to settle down a little in Toronto. The Jarvis House had been recommended to us by a previous host who apparently did not know that there had been a change of owner. Indeed the establishment has been held by Chinese since May 2015.

Looking for a bed and breakfast

A Little dusting goes a long way. we stayed in this for one night and had an "upgraded" room. While it was spacious it was dirty and old. the carpet should have been replaced years ago and didnt seem as though it had been Vacuumed in months. the window sills and door frames had a thick coating of dust on them and the furniture was stained. I know old buildings can have the odd spider here and there however i witnessed at least 3 house centipedes crawing near the bed and in the shower. I would not stay here again while there are other chain hotels near by.

In the city for a concert

We spent one night at Jarvis House. I recommend this place, which is well located (only 10 minutes' walk from the Eaton Center) The man who hosted us was super friendly and our room in the DRC was rather spacious! But our night was a little disturbed by the noise. As for breakfast, nothing to say: cereals, fruits, omelet, sausage, tea, orange juice everything was there!

It's a good location.

This B&B seems to be experiencing a continuous decline as things that break down don't get fixed. Lights, plug-ins that don't work, little cleaning in the windows, hallways, and sauces. Breakfast is very scarce. Bedroom bed is comfortable, bathroom is spacious but you have to order toilet paper because only one teaspoon. Rooted towels or conchas. It has internet and works well and is well located and well connected to public transport. The quality doesn't match the price. It is carried by people of Eastern ethnicity. They have to climb stairs. It's better to carry light luggage. If you arrive later in the 20's you'll pay 20 or 25 Canadian dollars for late check-in penalty.

Damaged b&b

Jarvis House is a great address in Toronto. Very well placed, this B&B is run by really nice people who will do anything to make you feel good. Feel free to chat with the boss who likes to talk to her hosts. Breakfast is more than pleasant and the rooms are nice and clean, which is not obvious in Canada. The only problem: stairs everywhere. Avoid for people with mobility difficulties.
