Summary of traveller reviews

Samesun Vancouver in Canada offers a fantastic central location, perfect for exploring the city. Guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, the cleanliness of the facilities, and the comfortable beds. The complimentary breakfast is a definite highlight. Some recent reviews mention that the dorm rooms can be quite small and noisy due to the lively street location, and Wi-Fi can be spotty in rooms.

I loved this hostel. It has a good location that makes easy to take the bus or train to anywhere you need to go just by walking for a bit. The staff is very friendly and they will help you in anything you need. The bedrooms were good, and breakfast includes bagels, different kind of breads, jam, butter, cream cheese, tomatoes, cucumber, grapes, boiled eggs, coffee, tea, milk and chocolate. There is also a water refill Station inside. I hope this review help you to book accommodation here.

The hostel is located in a central location, easy to get around and explore. Can be a bit dodgy at night with a few homeless people sleeping on the streets.

Stayed for a few nights. Place was good overall! Unfortunately there were some small things..Like the AC not cooling the room at all. Bathrooms not being restocked with toilet paper. Being in a room next to the stairs, people were SO loud at all hours coming and going. Not a lot of activity compared to other places I've stayed. But would stay again and overall a good hostel!

Hostelworld says

SameSun Vancouver is in an excellent location in central Vancouver, very near the Skytrain and less than 15 minutes? walk from BC Place Stadium, charming Granville Island and lively Gastown. It?s also surrounded by the city?s best clubs, shopping and restaurants. Hostelworld guests have said ?the colours and atmosphere and area are what make this place above and beyond the norm? at this ?fun and fabulous? hostel.
