exactly what you would expect from a hostel. Just be careful outside the property as there's a lot of homeless people. The free breakfast is a good treat as well.

Amazing experience, nice staff and clean place only minus thing: constant loud music in all the common areas, so you can’t meet ppl and talk or rest in a common space. Also no lift. But the location and everything else is perfect, beds are comfortable too. Overall I recommend it and will come back there!

First time being in a hostel after my original accommodation plans didn’t work out. I was worried about it being near a homeless shelter, but as someone who lives in Vancouver I wasn’t too phased by them. Glad to see measures such as requiring a card for after hours access. I felt safe, and the staff and other guests were friendly and respectful. There’s complimentary breakfast which is great, and lots of options within walking distance for dining out, or you can get groceries and cook your meals in the fully equipped kitchen if that’s more your thing. It’s close to major public transit routes which makes it easy to get from one area to another.
