Walking distance around downtown area and attractions. Outside is a little noisy, otherwise good overall stay, and will surely comeback!
Deniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I think this place offers the best performance for the price. Even though it’s a hostel, I stayed alone in a double room. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, this is your best bet. Plus, the people have been friendly to me so far.

It's good unique historic building, just south Gastown. With private rooms or for those to share a room amongst friends.

Michael, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stayed here for a couple nights vacation in Vancouver. Nice location in downtown, close to restaurants and shops. As a "hostel," the amenities are a bit spare, but it's a good value if all you really need is a place to sleep and store your belongings while exploring the city. One caution is that the entrance stairs are narrow and steep which can be a complication with your luggage or if you have mobility issues.

The bunk beds and thin mattresses were a bit tough to sleep on but the building was very quiet and it is a hostel so i thought it was fine.

The property was very quiet and cozy. Walking distance to just about everything The service was incredible. The guy at the front desk helped with everything with a smile on his face. Definitely coming back.

Everything was fine at this simple, affordable hostel, the only thing, they need to clean more hallways and dust. They are well located in downtown. They have there, towels, refrigerator, microwave, kettle, liquid dish soap, cutlery, crockery, cups, glasses washing and dryer machine.

The washroom and shower were dirty. Even the walls and floor have not been washed for a long time. I was wondering an old place but clean, this is not What I got.

The metal bunkbed in the room could do with some DW40 and tightening. The constant squeaking was unbearable.
