Everything was excellent. Only issue was the water tank being empty in the am. Would be good if it filled automatically.

Great rustic hostel, the sauna and cosy common room were definitely highlights. The only thing I would say is that the beds in the dorms are quite short, I'm only 170cm tall and my feet were just shy of dangling over the end of the bed.

Ein richtig rustikales Ambiente, aber die Lage am Fluss und die Aussicht Spitze. Der Host war freundlich.

Amazing location, super cozy, and good staff. Great to have a warm bed and a kitchen to come back to after a day of hiking.

Brilliant location, friendly staff, right in the mountains beside a river. Its a great place to watch the sunset, the bed are comfy, the sauna was great and lots of cooking supplies in the kitchen. Highly recommend!

Atmosphere was weird, not very welcoming and friendly. Not a dealbreaker though, some hostels are more fun than others. The amenities were great! The pit toilets were clean, the kitchen has everything you would need. They do have one pipe for drinking water, and a foot pump in the kitchen to wash your hands, which was really nice. Plenty of bowls, plates, pans, pots, coffee appliances, utensils etc to share and wash after use. Also appreciated the pillows and linens provided.

I regret staying in a place without a shower. It was truly the worst. I wonder if this is how it's supposed to be.

It's perfect for what it is. If you want to experience some time off the grid but aren't willing to hike/canoe deep into the park, this is your spot. Right off the highway. There's a little bit of electricity for charging and one tap with running water. The person working there was especially nice and helpful! But: it's not going to be the cleanest experience: no water toilets, no showers, it's in the forest and there's pine needles everywhere. This is not bad, but you should know

Fantastic stay at this unique hostel. They have very few facilities, but this is what makes it so rustic feeling, and they are environmentally friendly. This hostel has a great atmosphere (stayed a sat night) with a big fire and lots of chatting with other folks if that's your style. Make sure you read what they offer facility wise, I was blown away by the staff telling me how many people turn up and expect a shower and plug ins!!

It's wild, and that's very clear on the description. Beautiful place. Tbh, it was better than what I expected. Just compare it to a camp ground, not a hotel.

Good property and a great price for what is typically a pricy area. Wifi has times so it’s nice to disconnect and it gives a cozy cabin vibe.

Super endroit, vraiment j'ai adoré ! Jusqu'à l'arrivée de 3 hommes qui ont décidé de boire de l'alcool dans le dortoir, hurler et même ingérer des champignons hallucinogènes. Je me suis sentie en insécurité totale et je suis partie dormir dans la pièce commune, mais heureusement pour moi il restait 1 place dans le 2ème dortoir (dont je ne connaissais pas l'existence. Merci aux 2 voyageurs qui ont été vérifié dans leur dortoir). Je ne remercie pas le manager pour sa planification...

My parents’ first time at a hostel, I’ve stayed at one of these before when I used to hike the Appalachians in the USA. Has everything a camper and backpacker would ever need to spend the night, plus some extra luxuries, all for a very reasonable price (especially compared to the ridiculously priced hotels nearby in Banff and Jasper). The campfire and wood burning sauna was an overkill of luxuries (especially after a chilly rainy day hike soaked to the skin) . Nice and toasty common area.
