I thought this hostel was a great option to stay in a pretty expensive city. I booked a private room with a washroom and it was a good price for what it was. Parking is an extra $10 a day which seemed very reasonable. Overall, perfect location and decent place!

Great location near the city park and lakefront. Easy to use without having a car. Good access to downtown, and public transportation routes. The AC worked well. I was glad to have a single room and bathroom. It’s a hostel- Nice big kitchen and nice back patio.

Staff were very helpful, especially when I asked how I could retrieve my bicycle before the 7 am open time. And, extra kudos to the people who turned in my forgotten electronic equipment, and to the staff who will hold it for me until I can return to retrieve it! Negative: very close to main noisy highway coming in from the south/west.
