Good
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 6-Bed Female Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉I was in a 6 bed dorm where you could literally barely move. It was the tiniest hostel room that I have ever been in (and I've been in a lot!). I think I got a dodgy room though because most of the others seemed to be much bigger. I didn't like that the bathrooms and toilets were all at one end of the hostel, which happened to be at the opposite end to me so if you needed to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, you had a fair way to walk. Also, there is a DEFINITE need for ear plugs as the noise from the street was insane, but was fine with ear plugs. Location of hostel is fairly good though the area can be a bit sketchy at times.
눇If you arrived to breakfast early then there was a great selection of bagels, bread, muffins, juice and boiled eggs. If you arrived after 8:30, there were sometimes no bagels left, no eggs, just bread. Bathrooms were always very clean. Good communal space with couches and work desks to sit with your laptop.

“Comfortable stay at a central location!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 6 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉Although I got help with my suitcase, it would have been nicer to have a lift since they have 4 levels in total, including ground floor. It would also be good to have female only bathrooms and toilets because I had the 'privilege' of witnessing some guys who had no issues showing their bodies.
눇Location is perfect for those who can only afford budget travel but want a central location. It's about 10-15 mins walk to Canada place and other major city attractions are also of walkable distance. I had a 4-bed female dorm and was lucky to have nice roommates who came back and left the room at decent hours. I actually managed to get a 4 bed female only after making a request to the hostel because only 6-bed mixed was available when I did online booking. Their response was really quick and it was an easy switch. I also requested for help to carry my suitcase up and down the stairs and they gladly agreed. Breakfast was good (maybe even better than some of the cafes out there).

“Alright Hostel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 4-Bed Male Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉It was way too overcrowded by hordes of Aussies/Europeans who made a lot of noise and took up way too much space during breakfast and in the rooms - if you don't mind space being limited and it being the kind of accommodation that attracts young/roudy backpackers then go for it. If instead you're looking for a lower-profile kind of accommodation, don't go for this one!
눇Bed was comfy, location was alright downtown in Vancouver - a few of the travelers I met were interesting to talk to!

눉Staff couldn't inform me properly about how to get to airport during the night. They told me the only option was taking a taxi (~$40,00). But that is actually a bus (~$3,00) that goes to the airport. Bus stop is less than 200m away.
눇Amazing location, right in city center and a nice, relaxing walk to the waterfront. Walking distance to train station that connects to airport. Nice people, storage room available. Cool activities organised by the staff for everyday.

눉The bathrooms sometimes could use a little more TLC, quite smelly if someone didn't make it all the way to a toilet. Otherwise the Hostel is awesome!
눇The breakfast is very good, bagels, bread, muffins, and fruit were awesome if you're on a budget. The beverages were good, fruit juices, coffee, tea, milk. The staff are extremely helpful & knowledgeable of the area, and the activities are conducted well. Staff always assist you if you need change for laundry, of the transit system!
