By offering rooms at rates roughly 30 per cent lower than market, Harrington provides affordable housing options without compromising on quality. With Toronto rooms starting between $200 and $300 per week, you're definitely scoring a deal with Harrington Housing on a monthly basis, or for however long you need it.

Well at Harrington, the hassles are limited thanks to no credit score checks, protections against defaulting roommates, and all-inclusive rates. On top of this, all-inclusive, furnished rooms come with flexible lease terms.

Housing plans

Each Harrington Housing tenant gets their own private room with shared kitchen, bathroom and common living areas. All housing spaces are fully furnished including pots, pans and appliances for preparing and cooking meals. Rooms come furnished with a bed, desk, side table, lighting and smart TV.

Harrington Housing also provides unlimited Wi-Fi internet connections, fresh bed linens and deep cleaning services before each and every move-in. All premises come with either in-unit or on-site laundry and parking may be provided at an additional cost.

Easy billing and utilities

It couldn't be easier to pay for your rental at Harrington Housing, since they offer just one bill for all services.

That means internet, utilities, electricity, heating and water are all due together and you skip the annoying process of registering for utilities separately.

Convenient locations where you need it

With multiple sites across Toronto, it couldn't be easier to live right next to your school or work. Just browsing the Toronto website shows affordable rooms in Liberty Village, the Waterfront, downtown and York University, to name a few.
