Pitman Hall Residence at Toronto Metropolitan University

It is an extremely bad place to stay. I live in an apartment style configuration. It is terrible because of it's location. My room and all the rooms in our apartment are facing a wall. So if you look out the window there is nothing to look at except for a wall, it feels like you are living in an apartment with NO windows. Furthermore, my room has been giving me insomnia for months because there is a giant fan from the kitchen right outside my window. This means that my room sounds constantly like an airplane. Opening the window is not even possible if you want to talk to some one or listen to music. There are garbage trucks coming 2-3 times in the night and in the early morning. It is extremely loud and I have failed to try to sleep trough any time it came for the past 2 and a half months.The bigest issue is that I've been trying to solve this issue since the 3rd week I moved in. I've filed a work request form, which did nothing. I asked for a room change from my RA who was seemingly very helpful at first but in the end did nothing but send me to the Residence office. In the residence office I asked for a room request change form, and they didn't have one so they told me to send them an email describing the issue and my situation. I did this. I got an email back saying To submit a room change request

Residence has underground parking. $18 flat rate from 9 till 6. Overnight parking is another $9. Or $4 an hour which is cheaper than street parking and maybe a bit safer. I has my car broken into on this street near Pitman.

We moved in today and it was terrible. Our bedding was completely lost because it was moved by the residence people who have no idea where it went. There was only 2 of us and I had to move my car and try to find parking leaving my daughter with her stuff. She went up with one load l, thank God we had our own wagon. But when she tried to come back down to get the other load there were NO elevators coming down. She were on the 8th floor. Had to leave her with no bedding, pillows, sheets blankets. Super annoying experience. And the one residence 'helper' was extremely rude and unhelpful stating we left her things 'too long' when their elevators don't even come back down. Not a good start to the school year.

Spacious, climate controlled rooms with friendly front desk security 24/7, staffed at night by a security company, and during the day by other students. Mail service, a pay parking garage for visitors, and a fantastic cafeteria on the first floor make this a fantastic first home away from home. The residence advisors strive to make each floor in to a community through fun activities and making food/eating together. Also a short walk from the Eaton Centre, so bring mommy and daddys money!

Right on Ryerson campus. A bit expensive for what it is but it is an excellent location.

Lived here during the summer, and recommend it only if you are on a budget.The facilities don't make for the price but the location is very convenient, and service is fantastic.The air conditioning isn't ideal, and the space is quite cramped.It's recommended for students on a budget, and who will end up spending more time away from the dorms rather than otherwise.

Love it here! The cafe isn't great but it's a nice community

Pitman Hall Residence is one of the finest residences of Ryerson University. The location is very feasible and convenient. Easily accessible and the frequency of transport near Pitman is readily availble. Located in the heart of downtown and thus makes it very attractive and fun to live in!

This place was perfect for the Toronto Gay Pride weekend. It's all about location and it fit perfectly. Loved it

I spent three nights there for an event at Kerr Hall gymnasium. The beds and pillows are awful and there is only WiFi in the public areas (ethernet access only in the rooms).The included breakfast was decent, as was the price for accommodations in downtown Toronto. Definitely recommended if you're on a budget!
