Highly recommended. 5-10 minute walk to central Vancouver. Friendly and helpful staff & free pancakes in the morning!

Had a great relaxed stay here for 4 nights. Location is perfect, close to everything and staff were excellent and friendly. Breakfast included is great and keeps you going for your big day in the city. More of a B&B than a hostel so not the place to party etc but its nice to come home to a quiet bed. All good!

My partner and I stayed here, and we definately rate this place. It's soclean, safe, and close to everything and has a home vibe which makes gong there after a big day in the city very welcoming and relaxed. The people that run it are amazing and gave us lots of hepful tips.

This is a really nice, clean hostel with friendly helpful staff. It's got lots of character and the private room we stayed in was lovely. It is a quiet place though so if you're looking for lively then this probably isn't the place for you. Good location though.

we stayed here in september and loved it. janine and ken were both nice and inviting. it is a short walk from gastown and if you are looking for a fun place to grab a beer the cambie pub is close by. one thing to be aware of is this part of town is close to some sketchy areas so be careful walking late at night or parking your car.

This was a great place, almost more like a bed and breakfast than a hostel, but still a great value. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful and the place was full of charm. I usually dont respond about hostel stays but this place really left an impression.

It was the right amount of fun, but not too much fun (as in you couldn't hear other people having fun all night like a regular hostel!)
