Very handy location in Vancouver, 10-15min walk to Canada Place & train station, Gastown, etc. Rooms & bathroom were kept very clean & you can do your laundry from 4pm to midnight daily (so housekeeping staff can do necessary laundry first). Bunk bed was comfortable, plenty of local food outlets available until late & the bar downstairs has something on every night. That can get a bit noisy with karaoke, etc echoing thru the building, but not a huge issue. Enjoyed my stay 4 days & would recommend!

The Deluxe Double room that we got is a corner unit, newly renovated and is charmingly decorated. It is spacious, nice firm bed, and comfortable enough with nice bench along one wall where there is a window looking down at the street. It would be nice to have at least a sink in the room at the price that it is at, especially since it is a large room and the farthest from the communal bathroom as well! The staff was very helpful and efficient and the bars on the main floor are cool and unique. The noise of doors shutting and people talking in the hallway started at 7 am and is non-stop unfortunately -- so you need to be prepared to wear earplugs or to rise early. Also there is no shampoo or any washing liquid the showers.

Malone bar on-site, cool and spacious!

Had a private room: beds were not comfortable, very loud street noise and could hear the other guests. Shared bathroom was somewhat clean but run down. Would not stay longer than one night. Excellent location to the cruise terminal and easy and quick access to the sky train.

We only stayed 2 nights and had a private room in the Cambie Hostel. It was clean and the staff we friendly but in some areas for the price and well sort location it didn’t do very well. It was small and a bit dated in some areas including the women’s bathrooms which the showers didn’t work. Probably wouldn’t consider staying here again unless the price was better, especially if location is your top priority.

Close to everything and small lounge with kitchen on first floor. Was noisy though! You must wear ear plugs or noise canceling airpoda if you want to sleep properly! You literally hear everything around!
