Hours of the office are not enough, as even though we can check in whenever we want, most travelers also seek the staff's advice for visiting the city.

This was my first time visiting Buffalo. It was a wonderful experience. The staff was fantastic, answering any questions I had. The Hostel was located perfectly for travelling by bus or rail to anywhere I wanted to go, including 2 trips to Niagara Falls. One during the day and one at night. Thank You so much for giving me the chance to spend time at your wonderfully fun Hostel in your amazing city.

I love this hostel, and would definitely come back. Friendly staff, great system, great dorms, love the elevator, the couches in the lounge, good kitchen. Only don´t love not having WiFi in the room, and that must be bad when the Hostel is very full, but I have never been there in the Summer, so did not experience it yet.

Staff was really pleasant. The facilities were not amazing but the were quite nice and fit the price. Well located in downtown Buffalo for easy walking distance to any of the local neighborhoods. Can't say much about the general atmosphere since there were not many guests while I was there.

This is the best place to stay in Buffalo, especially on a budget and I always enjoy myself when I go. I make nearly annual trips to Buffalo, have stayed here the last 4 times I went and wouldn\'t think of staying elsewhere. Thanks for making us comfortable!

The dorm, though never more than half full during my stay, would still get very smelly. If you seal the windows, you should really install good ventilation!

The only thing I didn't like was the temperature. It was cold in the room, trying to sleep. It was cold when I stayed there a couple of years ago too. But other than that, the hostel is great.

It would be nice if there was a vending machine. It was a hassle looking for somewhere nearby to purchase a drink after hours.

The hostel is great! I really love the quietness and cleanliness of the room. It is great that we only have 8 people in each room. I stayed in several other hostels having over 20 peopl with me and that is annoying to a person enjoys quietness and privacy. And I like the color in the room, it makes me feel cozy and calm. And the staff is extreamely helpful, thanks for letting me find the tour guide booklet and the schedule of the bus! The location and price is great too. I'll stay here again!
