I loved my week-long stay at the Cambie Gastown. The toughest thing was the loud music from the bar, but I was able to sleep through it because I walked 15,000 steps each day exploring the city. I will recommend it, and I would stay there again.

This place was so great! It's over a bar so expect late-night noise, but it's not bad on the top floor. I brought ear plugs and an eye mask and it was totally fine. The beds are super comfortable. Shower pressure isn't great, but everything is clean. Staff r great and so helpful. Everyone is friendly and got to meet people from around the world! Bring a lock for your lock under the bed though or you have to pay $10 to buy 1 from them. A bit more expensive than I would think a hostel would be, but totally worth it! Loved my stay and would return anytime.

Not the best..I guess you get what you pay for.

No parking, no AC. Jangly multiple keys to enter each door. The day staff are lovely but the night staff will treat you like a criminal if you don’t have your individual room keys on each person when coming in late, so have them in your pocket. Tiny showers.
