Susan United States of America

Guillaume Canada

feel very comfortable staying there and always nice to chat with other travellers

Crystal Canada

this is MORE than what a hostel should be like -welcome candy on the pillows! in all honesty though, if this is your first hostel experience, it will set the standard. clean bathrooms, friendly and helpful staff, great common spaces -kitchen, lounge, dormitory beds built for privacy -complimentary earplugs for quiet and curtains for privacy. location is great as it is right downtown, walking distance to grocery store (if you prefer to cook) and restaurants (if you prefer to eat out). great vibe to this place. cost vs. value vs. experience...sometime you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes 'meh'. haven hostel is a clear winner.

Norman Canada

The staff was always Very helpful even with a late check in. Quiet secure building. Sleeping pod was roomy for a pod with a privacy drape, light, outlet and a small fan. I will stay here again I'm glad this is the place I chose for my first experience at a hostel. .

Rick United States of America

Contemporary building, fresh new concept, totally youthful and inviting vibe from everyone I talked to.

Ivan United States of America

It is super clean! Just like be in our own room. Especially the decorations, walls with comments from guests, tables, bench, etc. are unique! we left before seven, the staff still provided breakfast for us! The coffee, fresh eggs and delicious bagels warmed not only our stomach but our hearts!

Ziyan Canada

The property manager/owner and staffs are very very nice and accommodating. The place is very clean and the ambiance is so relaxing, you will really feel at home!!! You can also enjoy brewed coffee in the kitchen anytime you want to !!

Rozenie Canada

Such a nice place with such nice people! Aesthetics make you enjoy every minute of it and stuff makes you feel safe. I think booking doesn’t mention but you do have a small but lovely breakfast there. It was simply enjoyable and I had the best experience I could even imagine in The Haven Hostel, Thunder Bay!
