Cambie Hostel - Seymour

This is a great spot in a prime location. On first impression, I was a little worried - my room smelled a bit off, only one power outlet, and everything felt a little cramped. After settling in (and some air freshener from the front desk), however, I was really happy with Cambie. Only 2 people per room is AMAZING and the location really can’t be beat. Only feedback would be to have a desk with a built in power strip and some shelves in the shower! No AC is a little concerning but I was fine.

I would definitely stay there again, it had good friendly vibes. Some older people too, maybe not a youth party hostel. My only comment people should know is the bunk beds don’t have bars to not « fall off » from top bunk. Which was a bit freaky. My big duvet was nice and warm but a little stinky (musky) from the wash. I would still stay there as it met all my needs and the bathrooms were really nice. The rooms were small and you can hear the street but it’s a city hostel so expected

Bra beläget boende med bra faciliteter! Fräscha badrum. Boendet är inte jättesocialt skulle jag säga och mycket blandade åldrar. Har det man behöver i alla fall.

Excellent place downtown

An escalator/ elevator would be great!

The place was great, bathrooms and kitchen was clean. Very easy to access everywhere, close to subway stations and also to the water taxi.

I was placed in a room with a long-term guest (I don’t think I need to describe what it was like inside or the smell). The bed is creaky—whenever I move, it makes a loud noise. On top of that, music from the bar below kept me awake until past 2 a.m. There’s no charging outlet in the upper bunk. The reception staff didn’t even offer basic courtesy greetings. Needless to say, I’d recommend booking somewhere else.

Floor was sticky, rooms are not clean. No heaters, common areas are not well maintained

Stayed one night, knew ahead of time on bar noise .not that bad. Ear plugs at reception. Alot of homeless around, no incidents. Will stay again if I ever go to V.

Not an inclusive space for gender variant people. Not an inclusive space for physically disabled people, no attempt at accessibility at all. Facilities cleanliness 5/10 at best. Very loud, very bright lights everywhere.

Some people stay there for a long time and end up taking over the whole room (even in a two-person bedroom). The first room I was given was so messy that I asked for another option. The second one they gave me was a bit better, but it had the same issue: long-term guest. The window wouldn’t stay open, so we couldn’t get any fresh air into the room. It was stuffy and smelled bad, and it gave me a headache. It’s okay for one night and I guess you get what you pay for.

Not my favourite hostel to be honest. I stayed here two separate occasions and both times the rooms smelt like feet, even with the window open. The washrooms aren't the best and was usually quite cold inside. Overall its a bit dingy and not the most comfortable

You get what you paid for. Room humid, window does not close, no heating in the room (they brought a portabe one after I asked). I would not recomend..

Very cozy place, safe and near to waterfront station. I had good time also at 515 a little bar they have. I will be back for sure. Thank you for the kindness of the staff

Great location, great staff and very nice price! Totally recommended for a few nights

Better / cleaner than I expected. Everything you need and great central location. I prefer this hostel over the Samsun on Granville as Cambie was a bit cleaner and quieter.

I’ve stayed in most hostels in Vancouver and I’m certain this is the best quality/price ratio in the city. I stayed for two weeks and everything worked out perfectly fine

The layout is challenging to navigate stairs with narrow turns and door( not accessible friendly). Room was a little drafty but heater provided free. a little bit more expensive than previous hostel in downtown Vancouver per night. Fridge was broken and the one working was small. Older looking hostel with physical keys seperate one for floor and room as well as fob for entering into guest area. Overall tolerable for one night but I would browse other hostels/ accommodations.

It’s an old building and tho only thing reformed was the washroom. I booked for a two female dorm and the room was a really mess! The receptionist (Nacho) was so nice and help me to solve my problem

My room was super small which I wasn’t expecting! Staff were lovely, hostel wasn’t social but I stayed in November so it may have been due to that!
