Marcela, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

This an affordable option for a short stay. The university grounds are beautiful. Very easy to access Wreck Beach and city buses. Tons of hot water available. Kettle, toaster, fridge and microwave in the kitchen. Lots of restaurants, yoga studio, gym close by. However the markets are very expensive so you’ll want to pick up any groceries at a proper grocery store.

Jean, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I needed affordable, long term, on campus to be close to classes, and it was so enjoyable. The property checked off all my needs, and because of that I did not leave the property on weekends for hotels because it was the quiet serenity where I was. 10/10.
Rachel, 15-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property was perfect for the purpose of my visit; the location is convenient, the campus property is stunning, and all the amenities I needed were close by, e.g., transit, coffee shops. Thanks! Will recommend.
Eleanor, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I personally like its proximity to the beach, and it being at UBC meant more secluded and quieter space, away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Amenities were really nice, though they ran out of hand soap in 2 of their sinks in the washroom. Common dining hall is quite small.
PAUL, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Among all my travels, this was the first time staying in a hostel. The UBC grounds are spectacular. I definitely will be coming back.

It's a student dorm. That being said, it's clean and tidy (maybe too tidy, and minimalist).
