Samesun Vancouver

Great customer service from staff particularly, Stefany and Alessia. They have helped me tremendously with settling in, answering all my questions thoroughly with patience and even photocopying a special piece of paperwork for me. Breakfast was narrow in range but consistently fresh and generous. They have renovated rooms, ventilated but small shower spaces, and comfortable beds (no bed bugs) to sleep in. If you are sensitive to street noise on Friday and Saturday nights, get free earbuds at the desk or request a quieter room from reception (they are the loveliest!) Yes, there is homelessness in the location but this is Downtown and it is not the hostel's fault for having this presence. You will not regret this hostel!

put me in a room with BEDBUGS. and didn't give me a refund

I had a great experience here. The breakfast was good, bagels, fruit, and eggs free. We also were allowed to take bagels with us so I often times packed some for lunch/snack. The rooms were hot, (I was in a 6 people room in the end of March) but each bed had a fan. The location was great, right in downtown. I had a ton of fun at singing BINGO night which is every Wednesday (my table won a pitcher of beer) and on trivia night where I won a hat. The hosted tours were free (just the bus tickets) Wednesday-Sunday. The only con I have for this place is that I think I got bit by mosquitos or bugs of some sort. The bumps don’t look like bed bugs, more like mosquito bites and itchy. Not sure what they are. I stayed 6 nights and came home with 10 bites.

Do not stay here. I left as soon as possible due to bedbug infestation in my room. worst nights sleep ever. Staff were polite and breakfast in morning wasnt bad but not worth being eaten alive. I also found it cheaper to rent a room in a shared house

Poor people stay here. Noisey, unsafe, and has had bed bug problems in the past
