It was very clean and neat for a hostel. Loved the house cat :) I met 3 staff members and they were all amazing, super nice and helped in many ways. Communication prior to arrival was also great.

Zuzana Ireland

Comfy bed. Clean washroom . Central located in downtown . Close to train station .

Che Malaysia

proximity to the Waterfront train station, Gastown, harbor centre and othe places of interest

Antonieta Philippines

Basic accommodation but cheaper than anything else in the area. Be sure to bring a towel because otherwise you have to rent one. Staff was great. We got in late Saturday night, live band in the pub on ground floor. The hostel was kind enough to put us on the top floor at the other end of the building so we weren't bothered by the loud music.

Joseph United States of America

location, clean amenities, comfy bed and friendly helpful staff

Maxine Australia

The staff was friendly and the accommodations were really clean! I felt very comfortable using the kitchen and common area. It is in downtown Vancouver, which, like any big city you should be cautious and aware. But this also means it’s VERY accessible to LOTS of fun things, good food, and good bars.

Victoria United States of America

There was a cat and she was so sweet and amazing! Felt blessed to befriend her.

Ezra United States of America

The reception staff were super helpful. Very good value.

Kat United Kingdom

above a bar and restaurant, we don't mind the noise so close-by beers were perfect

Natalie Switzerland

All staffs are so kind, having a cute cat. Second floor room was spacious enough and quiet.

Eriko Philippines
