Good first time Hostel stay

First time staying at a hostel, overall it was a good experience. Could’ve been a cleaner, but for the inexpensive price, I would stay there again.

Coolest Hostel!!

Hostel Fish is always an amazing place. Extremely friendly staff, easy downtown access to everything, affordable and feels like a home away from home I stay here so often when traveling to or through Denver. There’s a dispensary directly next door and a piazza joint across the street. 1Up arcade is just blocks away and Coors Field one block away making this an amazingly located spot. Great little dive bar with games and $6 beer & a shot deal. You can’t beat this place!!

The bed did not have sheets. We slept on a mattress protector with a dirty comforter cover. Most hostels observe quiet hours, but this one blasted music until 2am both nights we were there. It was an interesting experience. I am glad we tried it once, but we will not be back.
