College Backpackers Inn
280 AUGUSTA AVE M5T2L9 Toronto, ON, Canada

Truly, a hostel where travellers can stay and netwrok

If you really want to get a feel for the pulse of a place, I recommend spending a few hours sitting in a park or on a busy street corner by yourself just watching day to day life happen in front of you. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

There have been so many times when I’ve been too shy to ask someone to take my photo in a place and I’ve almost always regretted it. #travel #traveling #adventure #traveltips #hostel

Want those postcard Instagram travel shots? You need to get out there before everyone else shows up. Sketchy areas are less dangerous in the morning too. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

People laughed at me when I said that I was carrying around a dozen spare passport photos, but they’ve been incredibly useful and saved me a ton of time and hassle. #travel #traveling #adventure #traveltips #hostel

Rise before sunrise to have the best attractions all to yourself while avoiding large tourist crowds. It’s also a magical time for photos due to soft diffused light. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

I carry a spare 300 USD that’s split up in various places in my backpack, daypack, and occasionally, my shoe when I’m nervous I’ll be robbed. #travel #traveling #adventure #hostel

ATMs out of money? Great! Take an unplanned road trip over to the next town and explore. Sometimes freakouts happen regardless. Just take a deep breath and remind yourself that it could be worse. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

I’m fortunate to have never had to deal with lost luggage, but I did have my backpack ripped open on a flight and I was grateful to have not had anything valuable in it at the time. #travel #traveling #adventure #canada #canadatravel #hostel

Guests from around the world love the hostel. Renovated common area, kitchen and modern washrooms and showers are the high points. High speed internet and free Continental breakfast which includes cereals, bread, jam and peanut butter with tea and coffee (24/7). Weekend special treat of baggles and fresh muffins with fruits are served. International travels love the fun around Kensington market.

Travel Tip: Have different lock sizes. Lockers in hostels (if they have them) are not universal and some even operate on a password system! #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

Travel TIp: Will it be cheaper to book a private room? If you’re not traveling solo but going away with a group of friends, it’s definitely worth checking the prices of the private rooms! #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

Travel Tip: Don’t just go for the cheapest bed if you won’t be comfortable in a 30-bed dorm. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

Travel Tip: When packing your clothes, choose lightweight synthetic materials over heavier clothing like cotton and denim. Not only do synthetics weigh less, they’re also more water resistant than their traditional counterparts. #Kensington #College #Backpackers #Hostel

Keep important items in your daypack, That’s your passport, laptop, camera, external hard drive, a debit card, and some spare cash. #travel #vacation #hotel #tips #fun

When you travel, you’re in the sun more than most people. Wear sunscreen every single day, regardless of the weather and temperature. #travel #vacation #hotel #tips #fun
