HI Vancouver Downtown

Unser Zimmer lag direkt gegenüber eines Badezimmers, das renoviert wurde. Dementsprechend war auch die Geräuschkulisse. Da zwei Badezimmer gleichzeitig renoviert wurden, mussten sich insgesamt 3 Stockwerke ein Badezimmer teilen. Zudem war der Aufzug defekt.

I had a great stay at HI Vancouver Downtown! The location is perfect close to everything and easy to get around. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always available when needed. The rooms and common areas were clean and well-maintained, and the atmosphere made it easy to meet other travelers. I also appreciated the organized activities and the overall welcoming vibe. I would definitely stay here again.

Bare bones hostel. Just what you need though. room is spacious. Very clean. Breakfast was bare bones as well the day I was there. No fruit left and no juice left at 8am! An apology message was there but ... can they not send someone to pick up some bananas or something? There is major construction right across the street so don't expect to sleep in.

The staff was nice and so is the vibe in the hostel. The beds are comfortable but damn the bunk bed move at any breathing. Like it’s way too much. Got waken up every 3 hours. The bathrooms are very basic with the shower and stuff~ it gives highschool showers vibes.

Excellent place

Location was great, felt safe in the neighbourhood as a solo female. Well connected with buses around downtown, to north Vancouver, the sky train and ferry ports. HOWEVER in terms of cleanliness it felt gross - despite myself and my roommates following the rules of no food in rooms, there were mice in my room. I was told checking in there was a ‘previous’ rodent problem but it’s clearly ongoing. The hostel needs to do something to sort it out, considering how expensive it is to stay here...

Comfortable, safe, and clean accommodations. Large kitchen space, and dining area. Highly recommend.

Kitchen was big. Bathrooms felt a little unclean. Rooms were pretty good. Atmosphere -dead.. Not a place to chill.

I had a really good stay I felt safe the whole time which mattered a lot since I was traveling on my own. The staff were friendly and helpful whenever I had questions. The hostel was also kept very clean. Bathrooms and hallways were cleaned frequently, and it showed. They organized activities every day, which is a nice touch and makes it easier to meet people, even though it was fairly quiet during my stay in March. The only small downside was that the Wi-Fi could be a bit slow at times.

Great for the price. Safe, relatively comfortable, classic hostel experience. However, I’m not really sure what part of the hostel was “newly renovated” as is in the hostel’s description; the facilities definitely look like they’re more than 3 years old, so having that in the description led to some disappointment on arrival!

Great place to stay, felt safe and comfortable and it’s not too far from things. I walked everywhere and was fine! Breakfast is a huge plus, everything is clean and the staff helped me out with a things. Overall would definitely stay here again.

Positives: good breakfast, friendly staff, decent location... Negatives: uncomfortable beds, the 2 tours I wanted to do were cancelled with 15 minutes notice because of a little bit of rain, no atmosphere, in fact it had many newly homeless locals staying which destroyed any chance of conversation with 'fellow travellers'. The local in my dorm took up the entire space with his belongings and made me feel generally unsafe with the conversation he did make. First time I've left early.

comfy beds, clean, nice and chill social vibe

Everything was great except for one hostel staff member who was very high during every interaction. He gave us bad information about events and our rooms as well as other things. He also had a really bad attitude towards just about everything and was very rude overall.

Wasn't very social but was very clean. I stayed in a private room and it was extremely spacious.

Incredible hostel, would book again!

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt dort, sehr sauber und sehr freundlichen Personal! Ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen.

Free breakfast is a definite win!

the location is great, being within walking distance to the city centre, especially robson street. the rooms were alright and the bunk beds are of high quality, steady with areas for safe baggage storage with a lock. the breakfast in the morning is great and i really appreciated it. the staff were helpful in meeting needs. highly recommend the guided tours! however, there were mice in the room which attempted to get to my sealed granola bars i intended to eat as a snack on other days.

The hostel itself was basic and I found not a lot of party life. Its location is not the closest to the main districts but the few nice travellers I met made my time better!
