The vibe of the place was great. Cool living room with instruments available to play, I played guitar. The sleeping situation was a little different. Wa a mixture of snoring and flatulence. Noise canceling headphones a must.

This place is dope! I only stayed for a night, and I was exhausted after a long weekend, but I wish I had more time. The vibe is really cool. River was super friendly checking me in. Lots of common space to hang if you want. I stayed in the 4 person private room, and would absolutely come back with a full group and stay there or again by myself. Comfy bed, nice bathroom. They have an outdoor area which I wish I had the energy to chill at. 1 block off main street, walking distance to all

Amazing hostel to meet some fellow hikers. Lovely colorful house, cozy garden, comfy beds, clean bathroom, and the owner even lets you try out his homegrown weed. Jah bless!

It was a great place for me to stay a night. The process was smooth, “River” who was working the desk/check-in was kind,clear and complete with tour after arrival. The other travelers were friendly and the reason I enjoy a trip that includes hostels! There are guest who smoke in the smoking area and it didn’t annoy me, but depending on the wind you might be bothered by it. Good kitchen complete with cooking tools. Great hot and cold water. Good water pressure. Beautiful town to visit. Have...

Lovely experience in Bishop. The mattress was comfy and the room was spacious! The outdoor patio was really nice as well with plenty of seating areas. The hostel is within walking distance to restaurants, shops, etc.

Super clean and comfortable. Several bathrooms with very nice hot water. Staff was awesome - called in for a flexible check in time with no issues. Free coffee in the morning with plenty of fridge/kitchen space. Will be returning here for all future mammoth snowboard trips 👌🏼
