It’s now a men’s shelter and one of the best I’ve been to! Three meals a day, clean rooms and linen. They help you get back on your feet and even have programs that will aid you in finding a place that fits your budget. Conveniently located close to bus stop that drops you off right by the subway. Strongly recommend for any fellow male who’s down on their luck.
I've been here for the last 6months. It's now ran by the Department of Homeless Services. The amenities are still available. I have a 2bed Jr Suite. The staff is very helpful.
This hotel is presently being used as a womans homeless shelter. The hotel is very clean and the staff are very professional. As a woman losing her apartment and forced to go into the shelter system it can be very upsetting, stressful and exhausting but being here at the Metro Inn has made my situation tolerable and the staff has helped me in so many ways.
