Lizelle, Canada

I appreciated breakfast every morning. Bagels, fruit, toast, jelly, eggs, juice, etc. There was plenty and it was a nice bonus.

Mona, United States of America

Breakfast was great. Nice kitchen. Clean bedding. Central located.

Senga, Canada

I stayed in one of the pod rooms! So much better then bunk beds. I was so comfy all night in my bed, the pods keeps the noise out and there is not metal squeaking bunk beds like the other room. The staff was so friendly! FREE Breakfast was great!

Tiffadventures, Canada

Breakfast was simple but good, though it was quite crowded and staff at difficulties keeping up with the amount of people would recommend coming early for breakfast or being patient with food availability as they try to keep up with the amount of guests coming for the free breakfast. Dorm rooms are accommodating to most solo traveler or groups of friends traveling together, bunk beds offer more privacy than most hostiles which is a plus.

Rafael, United States of America

Activities and bar were amazing. Breakfast bagels were great.

Krissan, United States of America

Breakfast was amazing, location was so great, staff were really nice and helpful, clean kitchen and rooms, bed was super comfy with a light and 2 fans, window in the room and good atmosphere. Bang bang!

Cassidy, Malaysia

Nice modern clean bathrooms and newly renovated dorms. Amazing breakfast and common areas including well organized and stocked kitchen. Great location in the heart of Vancouver with super friendly helpful staff and free activities everyday. The ear plugs and sleeping mask were a nice touch as well as the free towels and hairdryers. Good security as well.

Tash, United Kingdom

Staff very accommodating. Great location with plenty to do around the hostel and plenty of food choices.

“Social hostel in central location”
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 6 nights
The kitchen closes for cleaning for a few hours , it would be useful to have a water found or tea and coffee making facilities during this time.
Such a central location , easy to walk everywhere downtown and Granville island. The breakfast is fantastic( as long as you are a fan a bagels) and more importantly plentiful, the tables a very communal so its very easy to get chatting to other travellers. The pod rooms have everything you need for your stay.

Not really much, no. Just the fact that in the morning the streets nearby reek of urine, but that’s probably Vancouver’s problem. Not the hostels!
I liked that in the same hostel there is a pub. Really convenient for meeting friends from the city! And the beers on tap were tres magnifique — could use a few beers from my home town of Calgary, though. Common Crown or Village, you guys...get on it! :)

“Incredible breakfast, fantastic location, social atmosphere and friendly staff. Thank you”
- • Leisure trip

Quite expensive in general terms but not necessarily for Vancouver or Canada. Value for money in breakfast and location and service but not necessarily for facilities or target market of backpackers or longterm travellers. Price may be reasonable for Canada and Vancouver downtown saying that and there is not many other hostels or cheaper accommodation to choose from apart from airbnbs and couchsurfing. Great all round especially if you have the budget.
Incredible breakfast especially having come from South America! Hot drinks, fruit, bagels different flavours, spacious and great service and inclusion to have considering price of hostels in Vancouver city. Welcome and checkin staff fantastic, offering information help as new to Canada looking for work. WiFi great. Location fantastic to all centre shops and offices. Nice bar area and social spaces. Dorm of 4 comfortable enough.

The breakfast only included carbs. I can't eat anything with flour/sugar so I ended up going out to eat breakfast anyways. But understandable considering the price per night.
