Peaceful.. out of the center of the city and the beach is nearby.. But the staff are a horrendously miserable crew. If you are hoping to have an online conversation with anyone lasting more than an hour for a sentence or two this is the place to stay. The woman serving breakfast in the cafe could not have had more... More

I can't say enough good things about this place. Clean and friendly,!. Beds were clean and storage lockers were spacious. The beach was fantastic!!!!! So easy to access the gardens, the mountains and downtown, the public transportation in this city cannot be beat! The Vancouver Folk Music Festival is here ! http://thefestival.bc.ca/# More

I stayed in Vanouver for a week and stayed in this HI. It is a little outside (20-30min into town) and you need to walk a little from the bus stop to get there (depending on your luggage it takes longer... ;) ). The hostel is nice, clean and near the beach (5min). The big dorm rooms don't seem as... More

A group of us used this hostel in June 2010. Very friendly and accomodating staff I have to say. Could not ave being friendlier. As you'd expect with a building of this age, the facilities were a bit dated but well maintained and very clean including the shower/bathroom facilities. The dorm we stayed in were quite large (14 beds to... More

i picked this hostel in vancouver because it was slighly out of the city and i had heard mixed reports about the other hostels in the city. it did not disappoint - tho i was slighly shocked by the sheer size of the dorms! 14 beds! but to be honest it never felt like there was 14 beds in my... More

Staff: The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially the guy downstairs at the bar really seems to enjoy his job and is passionate about his cooking and giving "beer-advice". Location: The Hostel is a little bit far away from centre, but therefore very quiet and relaxing. Jericho beach is right around the corner. Really nice environment. Room: We stayed... More

We chose this place because it was cheapish for Vancouver but still unbelievably pricey for a private room without own bathroom. It was a little out of the way but we figured it would be quieter and more peaceful. It is certainly set in a very quiet suburb and only a few minutes walk from the beach. Couldn't really complain...

Let me start by saying that the staff was very friendly and very helpful, and the cheap parking was nice as was the location, but those are really the highlights. The building is fairly dated (an old army barracks) - because of this there aren't working outlets in the rooms. The bed itself was clean enough but very old -... More

The location of the hostel is fantastic, right next to the beaches, with spectacular views. While it's nice to out of downtown Vancouver, it felt like a bit of a trek to get there. We had a private room, which wasn't too bad. We arrived in the middle of a heatwave, and were given a fan that did absolutely nothing,... More
