Overall everything was amazing! Just the people in the area were questionable, with homeless or drunk people… That was a bit uncomfortable but everything else with the property was amazing, with friendly staff and clean rooms and facilities. There’s also restaurants and shops nearby, and very good public transit as well

Great hostel on a street with full of drug addicts

The hostel itself is a good place and many opportunities to take public transport. However, the great politicians of British Columbia transformed the hostel opposite to this one to a drug shelter. Hence, there are hundreds of hardcore drug addicts lying across the street making it a very unsafe place for families or single women. Not something to blame the hostel but eventually they are the ones to suffer from this development. For tourists, try to avoid any place that is on Granville due to the aforementioned drug addicts making it an unsafe place.

Excellent value but there is a cost!

Okay so I’m a 54 year old married woman and not the target market client for a hostel. However we wanted a cheap centrally located place to stay. On the plus side it’s cheap and a safe location, even if a bit mixey. The staff were super helpful (especially Grant), the room (we had a private en-suite room) was spotless and the bed comfy. Also there was free breakfast from 6am and cheap food in the evening. On the negative side the room was tiny and very noisy during the night. On our first night someone blow dried their hair at 2am in the communal bathroom waking us up. On the second night someone was violently sick. We got little sleep! However after the first night I was saying this is brilliant why do we normally stay in hotels but after the second realised there was a reason we did. So all in all good value for money but remember it’s a hostel aimed at young people and not oldies like me!

Great place to stay. Don’t miss breakfast. Clean convenient chill.

10/10 Exceptional

The room has a good size and the staff is always keeping the place clean regardless of the amount of guests. The breakfast is a good option to start up your day in a healthy way. If anything, be wary if you cannot use the stairs because there are a number of them even if you're on the first floor. Nevertheless it was a great experience and totally recommend it.

It was a lovely experience thanks to the staff. I traveled alone and I joined the tours organized by Caro, a lovely Chilean girl, who made my solo trip easy and fun. She has a daily tour planned for you, if you don’t know what to do, join her!!! Chio at the front desk was so helpful and kind. I highly recommend this place, it’s clean, organized. Great location, tons of food options around, supermarkets nearby, and the close to one of the SkyTrain stations.
