“Adequate”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2011

The Samesun Hostel, is a convenient place to stay. It is on a main noisy road, but it also is close to town. There is no cafe/bar at this hostel, but it has a huge kitchen, which is really handy. The free breakfast is what you would expect for a free breakfast. The room was clean and the beds are hard, but still had a good nights sleep. The bathrooms are very clean and nice and big. The staff are nice and helpful, but sometimes hard to find. Everything was ok, would come back again, but not the best hostel I've ever stayed at. Not as good as Vancouver Samesun.

Stayed November 2011, travelled as a couple

“Best location and staff!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

I stay here frequently and I'm always happy. The staff and service is fantastic, the building is always clean, and the common area always has fun activities going on. They also have a hot tub, ping pOng table, bbqs and are right across the street from all the pubs! Best backpacker option for Kelowna!

“Not the place to be if you want to sleep well”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2011

Stayed here on two separate occasions, both for only one night. I had a bed in an 8-shared dorm, the mattress is thin as, you can feel the metal bars underneath, the room is small as and dark, when we were 8, you can hardly move around. Being on the back of the hostel gives you a ton of noise from their patio, so besides a bad quality mattress you also have the noise keeping you awake.
The atmosphere seemed to be quite good in the hostel.

Room Tip: Don't stay in an 8-shared dorm!

“Basic, fun and friendly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 September 2011

Spent one night here in a dorm of 6 but it wasnt full at the time of staying. The rooms were basic bunk beds and the bathroom facilities were adequate and clean. The hostel has a great vibe and everyone I met was friendly. There is a patio area which is sociable and a massive kitchen area to chill out in too.
Basic, cheap and clean.
