I was hesitant but the hostel may have been our best lodging on our vacation. It was clean, provided a well equipped kitchen for preparing meals and the opportunity to meet and talk with fellow Travelers about the trails and sites to see. Definitely recommend!

The view from the room was lovely to wake up to. It's a 10 minute drive into the resort and so it's a great spot to sleep between skis, but the life if elsewhere.

Got stuck in whistler after the highway closed, had to book this dismal place, sheets were see through, blankets had rips in them. Not worth the 272$ for the night I spent. Staff were nice but the beds were lumpy, sheets were uncomfortable and it was expensive

Skiing requires a car or public transit. It's several kilometers to the village. The room is clean, ultra spartan. Think big dorm room, but with your own bathroom. But it was quiet, so that was excellent.
