Summary of traveller reviews

Vancouver Backpacker House offers a quiet and affordable stay, praised for its cleanliness and comfortable beds. While some find the location a bit out of the way, it's convenient for accessing public transport and nearby amenities. Be aware of a unique check-in process and potential extra charges for services like towels.

It is convenient to be near sky train- but it's far from Vancouver. This place needs updating badly. The kitchen was filthy filthy. The bathrooms are gross and falling apart. I was the only one there for the majority of my stay which was creepy. But then when someone did come on my last night, the owner put him in the same room vs one of the many open rooms. I know there's always a chance of lots of roomies, but this was super odd. This is NOT a place I would hang out with other travelers

As it was my first time in Vancouver, I wanted to get a good and affordable place. And this was exactly what the VBH offered. The fact it was located in a good and calm neighbourhood helped me as well. The check-in and check-out were easy (only text with the landlord). I had no problems during my stay
