AAE 11th Avenue Hostel Reviews

I wouldn't go as far as to call it a hostel, because although it's got dormitory rooms it doesn't have a backpacker community feel. Great location for exploring downtown and very secure. There wasn't a door to my dorm, so it got cold at night. And I'd take a shower upstairs rather than in the communal washroom...unless you want to shower while someones abluting first thing. All that said, it was a good place to stay for exploring the city for a couple of days and I'd probably stay again.

This hostel seems to double as an single-room-occupancy (SRO) hotel, a type of housing that often caters to the poor and housing unstable. Still, the facilities were clean, quiet, safe and secure. The arrangement seems to make the atmosphere less social than other hostels I've stayed in, but this can be a good thing. The staff was helpful and I enjoyed my stay. The proximity to downtown is awesome.

To stay for one or two nights it is okay. The mattresses are too thin you feel any springs and some bugs in the bathroom. But the staff is very helpful.

We had a separated bath and another separate sink in our suite, which I highly applaud -- this allows other people to use the sink when the bath/toilet is occupied. Only other thing to make it more perfect is if there is a draw-door or some little separation between the sleeping area and the common area in the room. This would allow partition of a quiet/sleeping space, and a hangout space where you don't need to feel as restricted.

in the process of renovating so it's only getting better. not a traveler hostel, more of a hotel atmosphere so if you want privacy, this is the place with a great location.

Slightly dated decor but very comfortable. Undergoing renovations but that's what you expect in the winter! Staff very friendly and helpful

I was surprised, the hostel is well clean, spacious, great location. Only 5 mins walk from the free shuttle bus and main areas of interest. The dorms are like apartments with Fridge, TV, microwave and a mini kitchen/common room. The staff are above and beyond helpful and friendly. I really enjoyed my stay here.

This is not really a hostel. It is more like a hotel which want to earn some easy extra money by hosteling. I was in a 8 bed room, which was only temporary. The beds were totally uncomfortable with a thin mattress. I slept only few hours per night. The "common" looks new, but no stove to cook something, only microwaves. The staff was friendly an make my bed changes possible, after I got a broken bed. All in all I won´t stay there again, also there many creepy people in and around the hostel.

This place is ok. The staff is really nice, but the facilities are very average and the bedding is the worst kind. The location is quite good though.

The hotel is very old and in really rough shape. Nevertheless, we at least expected clean water. Note that the rooms with a "private bathroom" don't have a shower - just a tub. When we turned the water on, about half a gallon of disgusting, black, foul-smelling water came out of the tub faucet until it turned clear. It looked and smelled like raw sewage. While the location is good, it doesn't justify staying in a dump when a nice hotel in the same area costs $10 more.

Room was really big with wifi in the room and pay tv. Also the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and were happy to help with everything we needed. Most of the people staying in the hostel didn't appear to travellers and were locals who appeared to be living there so it didn't have the atmosphere of some other hostels around. The bathroom could have also been a little bit cleaner but apart from that it was good.

I've been traveling to all over the countries. I found this hostel was overall great. I was here for just 1 night to go Boulder. I booked dorm (6 people), and I was only one. The room has own bathroom, shower, TV, and Microwave. It was very clean, and staff were very helpful. If I have a chance to come back, I would stay here, for sure.

BRING EARPLUGS! The hostel is surrounded by pubs and clubs. So if you want to get any sleep, bring earplugs!

The ventilating situation in Male's dorm is not good, with being told by the staff that dorms are going to move upstairs. Anyway, it's really has a nice location and good price.

This seemed more like a half way house than a hostel. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I did not feel comfortable hanging out in the "hostel" and the place itself was not conducive to lounging anyway.

Very reasonable price, super location, clean, friendly and helpful staff, old timey atmosphere- it's hard to imagine a better place to stay in a great city like Denver!

I've stayed here twice now and have really enjoyed it both times. Staff are really friendly and helpful, the place is very clean. Free internet and WIFI, TV and sofas in the dorm rooms. Despite other's reviews I've always met some really fun people in this hostel too. Would definitely recommend it :)

Pretty okay for a hostel and in a handy location if you want to see the major sites of Denver. A fun bar around the corner too (although you do hear the noise from it).

I lived in room 210(private ensuit) which is facing the street. So it was very noisy especially during the weekends. The room was alright and the location is good. The only satisfied thing for my staying was the friendly staff. Overall, I don't think I would pay the same price to live there again

I was really surprised by how much I liked this place. The single room I had was very clean and comfortable and more like a basic hotel. However, the bathroom was very dated (but still very clean). I had three issues; firstly, the my room was at the front of the hostel facing the main road, so at night was really really noisy. Secondly, the my room was incredibly warm which made it quite difficult to sleep. And finally, some of the other guests staying there were a little strange!
