The property is not technically a hostel in my opinion. It is a university dorm (UBC). The main difference that I felt with a hostel was that this was individual single bed rooms with share washrooms/kitchens. I didn't see much of travellers vibe hanging together, altbough there was places for it either in the main lobby or in individual buildings. However, having said this, the property was reasonably priced in the over-priced city of Vancouver. So, if you are on a budget and don't mind an hour commute to get to downtown, this is a nice place to try. Very close to the beach, and also within 15 minutes walk to several eateries.

The location of the hotel is very good. It is in the UBC campus with a nice beach in walking distance. I went there to watch the sunset. The bed is twin size. The price is very affordable. Great for single travellers.

I would highly recommend this property for one’s stay in Vancouver. It has everything that you need in order to travel in a relaxed manner, they have washers and dryers which allows you to pack less clothing.The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and truly ready to assist you when you need. The one downside that I would say about the property is the location seeing as how it is a bit far from downtown Vancouver you can easily get a bus pass from the shoppers on campus.

It’ll be awesome to setup a coffee carafe and charge $2 at the checkin /checkout counter.

Despite having to make the bed myself, they left sheets and blankets on the bed, and removing four long hairs from the sheets and blankets, I would stay here again. As the Travelodge, I used to always stay at in Langley, has doubled in price. The walls are thin. Heard someone snoring late last night.

Quiet environment around the facility. Best value for overnight stay in Vancouver. Plenty of amenities nearby but it will be a long walk to get there and back. Public transportation does not run frequently during the summer months.
