It was cheap. We had a full room for all the family (5 members). There were common facilities with kitchen, living room and bathrooms.

It is a low quality hostel. In general the smell of all the building was awful. Although the bedroom was more or less clean, the kitchen wasn't. Sometimes it was a bit disgusting to be in the common areas and use the shared bathrooms. There were a lot of people living there for long periods.

I was trying to come up with how to describe our experience here....came across a review that pretty much captured it, so here it is for you to read: I really want to rate this place higher, as it ticks a lot of boxes on paper. It provides free phone booth to call anywhere in Canada. It has free pool table & Netflix TV & generous lounge area, the place is clean & tidy. It also has own bar fridge in each dorm. The shower was hot & nice. If it's a bed & clean place you are looking for, this place is 5/5 for value. But if you are looking for the community mingle vibe like most other hostel (HI Lake Louise / Dreamcatcher in Golden etc), you will be disappointed. It has a clinical boarding house feel rather than hostel.

I have stayed in lots of hostel, this is the oddest set up I have come across. The manager drive from elsewhere to check you in (although he was very prompt), and leaves 1 minute after. There is also no staff on duty. You really can't feel any love. This place has a weird vibe, it almost feels like a place out of the Hitchcock movie. Furniture seems like from old motel / diners. Every single room is directly off the open common area, so can only imagine how nosy this place is when it is busy. Single bench kitchen with 1 stove may be hard to cook when more than a few guest. Only having 2 bathroom & 3 showers really isn't enough for the amount of beds. Towel should be automatically put on guest bed like all other hostel instead of waiting for guest to ask for one, after the manager is long gone.

the location is perfect.

the whole hostel is very basic, and could use some better furniture etc..

Cleanliness.

Rooms and social room very clean and spacious. Rooms had their own fridges which I haven't seen in any other hostel.

We only stayed for a night and rented the whole room for 3 people. I can imagine staying won't be easy with strangers in this hostel as the beds don't have individual light, no desks, no lockers and no curtains for the beds. Not many showers in the hostel. The location was kinda not straightforward.

yes

good for group of people

Cleanliness is very important so they have to clean the room properly

Nice
