C'est propre et très bien situé, mais on ne peut pas dire que ça soit franchement confortable. Après pour le prix vraiment ça va.

the only hostel in town, so do what you will, but it's not particularly clean, friendly, or comfortable. all said, it was fine.

Bien situé, l’auberge de jeunesse de St.John’s est confortable, propre et abordable comparée à d’autres établissements dans le secteur. Le seul hic: une seule douche pour tout l’hôtel.

Truly enjoyed this Hostel and what made it so special is meeting people we had already met on trail! Also, Roxanne was a super star host!🩵

A lovely little Hostel in the middle of St. John’s, great value for the money, could use one extra shower, but it looks like that is in progress. Staff are lovely! Even met some friends to tour around with. I love that. It includes towels and bedding. Lots of fans to keep you cool.

The staff were nice, there wasn’t much of a social aspect to the hostel that I was looking for. As others have said the bathrooms need improvement, one shower and the toilets always seemed to be malfunctioning . There seemed to be a lot of long term tennant there.

City Hostel was a very nice stay. Great location and quite quiet for a hostel. Would stay again.

The location, staff, and cleanliness are great. It’s not the nicest hostel I have stayed in; however, it’s affordable for what it is. Check-in, check-out, and payment procedures are confusing and the beds are really noisy. Contrary to other reviews, there is a shower upstairs, while another bathroom is being worked on downstairs. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking while you’re there. Overall, it’s a nice, cozy hostel that I would definitely stay at again.

Good hostel to stay for a couple of days, pretty central although it's a hike back up. Very clean and the man who works/lives there was good help, we felt very safe leaving our things there.

la seul auberge de jeunesse en ville alors on peut pas trop se plaindre….

Well located, not expensive, good just for sleeping, but the beds could use some shelves to put your little stuff to avoid sleeping with some objects in your bed. Also the metal frame makes noise when you or your room mate moves around while sleeping. Curtains for the beds would be great to give some privacy. Also I recommend having more than 1 single bathroom for the whole place, we were sometimes waiting for it to be free.

The staff here was very friendly and helpful. The location was also very good and walkable to other sites in the city. The owner also had his own tour shuttle company which was cheaper than other tours and very personable too. And the hostel itself had a great kitchen and I had a small fridge in my dorm room. It was a good choice to stay here and I'd do it again because of the people I met.

not good. a lot of dirt and a weird smell, no common areas, in my room there was a local person who had been staying there for a while who would go out and get heavily drunk each night

The staff was friendly and the rooms are clean. Only one shower was available for everyone at the time of my stay, but they kept it remarkably tidy.

Hostel is in a good location, didn’t feel the most secure as the keys are left in a box at the front door which was open when I arrived! Only 1 shower for the whole hostel! The hostel has guests who appear to have been living there for a long period of time! Very off putting for travellers.
