I’ve stayed in hostels in multiple cities in the US and abroad. This hostel was my least favorite. The receptionist started telling me about his drug habits as he checked me in and then walked me through an alley to a separate building I’d be staying in. It was covered in carpet that I am convinced has not been cleaned since the 70s. I booked two nights but couldn’t bring myself to stay there a second night. It was filthy. I wouldn’t be surprised if I brought bed bugs home. Nothing was up to code and accessibility considerations were non-existent.

I had stayed at the hostel in October 2021 and had a wonderful experience. That experience prompted me to book again, recently. However, this time around, we were not informed of our bunk having a bed bug infestation. The person I shared the bunk with is allergic to bed bugs. Staff minimized the infestation and instead told us we had "one of the better bunks." I love the vibe of the hostel, however, due to the minimization of bed bugs, I will no longer be recommending this place to friends. I also do not plan on staying at the hostel for future travel.

¡BED BUGS!, this place is infested of them. We had to run away almost in the middle of the night when the bugs were crawling our bodies. Really bad experience, nothing else to add!

Completely Infested with Bed Bugs. Great location and place, however, the bed bug infestation is not acceptable. Another guest told me about it and showed me a picture. Then, later that day my girlfriend had a bed bug crawling on her arm and jumped on her shirt where she was able to crashed it after a few attempt. We told the people working at the hostel and they said that the already new about the issue, but they weren't telling the guest which I thought it was very unresponsible.

My partner and I had to leave where we had reserved a room at the last minute, and Hostel Du Nord was extremely helpful and accommodating!!! It was clean, quiet, and comfy. It was so great to have someone try to help us out of a bad situation (bed bugs).

Análisis del ambiente
Hostel du Nord es un hostel en el centro de Duluth con un lado práctico fuerte: cocina amplia, zonas comunes, taquillas, literas con cortinas, luces de lectura, enchufes y una ubicación cerca de Canal Park, cafés, tiendas, museos y acceso a buses. Cuando la habitación está tranquila, el dormitorio puede sentirse más cápsula que hostel clásico, con literas y cubículos que dan algo de espacio personal. La sauna y el cold plunge son lo que destaca. Convierten la estancia de simple crash pad económico en algo más distintivo, especialmente después de un día largo por Duluth o una mañana temprana de carrera. Las experiencias con el staff parecen mixtas. Cody y Jason destacan en positivo, y la ayuda puede ser amable, paciente, generosa y relajada. Al mismo tiempo, el check-in y la cobertura del mostrador pueden ser inconsistentes, y algunas interacciones con personal suenan frías o poco profesionales. Espera un edificio antiguo con escaleras, baños compartidos y un diseño de dormitorio que no le va a calzar a todo el mundo. La limpieza va desde baños y zonas comunes muy limpios hasta problemas con habitaciones sucias, alfombras, privacidad en baños, olores y la piscina fría. Los precios y cargos finales pueden sentirse menos atractivos que el precio titular.
Señales a revisar
- La entrada puede ser difícil de encontrar y necesitar mejor señalización; está entre tiendas, frente al Holiday Inn.
- No hay ascensor, y algunas camas o habitaciones requieren escaleras.
- Hay almacenamiento, pero puede ser incómodo si llevas equipaje voluminoso.
- Ruido, olores, temperatura y seguridad pueden ser irregulares.
- Las parejas que buscan privacidad tipo hotel pueden encontrar la distribución demasiado expuesta.
