I had everything I required for my stay, except for hot showers. I never got any hot water. The best I could do was reduce the flow to a near dribble & get a tolerable tepid. The noise from downstairs was constant thru most of the nights, but I wore earplugs to dampen the sounds. However, on Friday night, they played loud music & I could hear the bass & drumbeats thru my plugs. I was kept awake until past midnight. Also my food was once stolen from the kitchen.

The worst hostile I have ever been to in my entire life and I have been going to hostels for 50 years. Absolutely absolutely disgusting diarrhea all over the bathroom. Horrible rooms just horrible.

Not a bad place to stay for an inexpensive hostel. Main complaint was no A/C making the rooms hot in summer plus no breakfast.

The location is great in downtown Vancouver, a couple blocks from the ferry and cruise terminal and a few blocks to Gastown. The taproom downstairs has good brews and food at competive prices, sometimes with live music. The main downside for me was that the room was a bit too warm now during mid-summer though the personal fan they provide helped and open windows made it cooler as the evening and night progressed. At certain times during morning rush, more toilets and showers would have been helpful but were otherwise adequate. Yes, I'd stay here again for the location convenience and price.

Good inexpensive option. Nice to have a room for two but very small. Bit of a funny layout with doors and stairs required to find bathroom. Bar downstairs very loud and also street noise.

Location is great but the room is very small and no air condition, no fan. It was very hot. Also, bunk bed doesn't have guard rails. It's a bit scary what if I fall off from the bed while sleeping. Also, at night, it's very noisy.
