This was my first time in Quebec City and I really wasn't sure what to expect. I booked this hostel as it stated it wasn't on the busy party street. I was travelling alone for the first time in years and first time at a hostel. I am older and was pleasantly surprised to see many people my age, perhaps older and families. I met some amazing people in the hostel and we went out for a night. I appreciated the all-girls bathroom and the layout. The hostel was clean and extremely well-placed in Old Quebec. I was very impressed with the staff and their willingness to help out. Hands down, this was perfect place to stay in my vacation and wouldn't hesitate to come back!

The building is old and the rooms have not been renovated in a long time. The showers were hot and private. The location is amazing.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location and friendly staff, very accommodating of any requests made upon booking, and good value for money - would recommend for solo travellers who need somewhere well located and comfortable. There was also really good safe storage for belongings and it was nice and quiet at night time - no complaints at all, a good budget-friendly option!

    Great location and great hostel. Located on the best street of Quebec and on walking distance to the old town. We stayed before in the old town hostel. But that was super outdated and more expensive. They can def learn something from this hostel! Great common areas and chill zones, nice comfy beds with curtains (privacy) and big lockers! This is how hostels should be!

    The room was very clean and modern. The location was easy to access. It is only a 20 minute walk to Old Quebec and we felt very safe walking to and from. The staff was very friendly and were very helpful. The rooms seemed very sound proofed. The pillows were very soft and comfy and the linen was Nice and crispy clean.
