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 had a great stay with Samesun for my 4-day trip to Vancouver! Team at Samesun are super helpful and welcoming & the location is very conveniently placed. Free breakfast every day 8-10 and a tea and coffee bar as well as a water fountain. Rooms bathrooms and showers were fairly clean. Near lots of nightlife so very loud at night but earplugs are available- and if you sleep easily (like me) you might not even be bothered. As a solo woman traveller, just be careful at night, area is a bit iffy.

Everything was great apart from the fact that there are no elevators so carrying bags up the stairs was not ideal.

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.
