The location was central and convenient to Gastown and lot of places in the CBD. It's a heritage building with a lot of its original fittings, so is a bit cheaper.

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.

    I selected the hostel for its location and relatively cheap price. Please mind, that across the road there is a building where the junkies live. It is safe, but vibes...

    Great location, very safe and walkable to Stanley Park, Granville Island and Downtown. 2 minutes away from supermarkets and eateries. Hostel was lovely, 4 bed female dorm, spacious with several chargers and light on bed. Bunk beds very new, not noisy! Washroom always clean. Staff friendly.

    For the money, the location was dope. Within walking distance to everything we needed. Hostel offered plenty of advice on cheap things to do in Van and how to meet other backpackers.

    Good location, cheap stay in Vancouver. The beds were comfy and having rooms of four people allowed for a more quiet night than at other hostels with larger rooms.

    Booked a private bunk bed room which is a great option if you are on a budget and travelling as a couple (this was the cheapest option we could find in Downtown Vancouver). The beds were really comfortable and our room was quiet so we had a good sleep. Locked storage available in the rooms. Great location with lots of restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Hot showers and good WiFi strength.
