Some rooms do not have an external window. We were shifted to a beautiful room on our second day. The staff is very courteous and helpful. The common areas get cleaned regularly which is great.

I really enjoyed my stay, I was really pleased with my stay here. I stayed in the single room. It was spacious with had clean furniture. The room was clean. My only complaint was an occasional smell in the bathroom. The staff was very friendly. They had a very nice rooftop area, and it was in a great area. Highly recommended. ##### Stacy Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Feb 23, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### hippiejump Quite clean, smokespot on the roof alright. No privacy in the dorm because the curtains are missing. Surgery room light are crazy bright, but maybe somebody likes them. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hosam Feb 16, 2025 I have nothing negative to say. It's really just an average (or slightly below) hostel. Run down building. No social activities. Staff are okay. Stayed in private room, and considering what you pay, it's really overpriced. ##### Hosam Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Shota Aug 17, 2025 Liked: Amenities 観光、レストラン、露店に対してアクセス抜群 ##### Shota Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathieu Nov 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Il faut essayer ##### Mathieu ### 8/10 Good #### Gaurav May 14, 2025 ##### Gaurav Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Markku Jan 13, 2025 ##### Markku Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### tero Apr 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### tero Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARÍA VICTORIA Feb 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### MARÍA VICTORIA Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne Cordner Aug 11, 2023 ##### Suzanne Cordner Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ram Vignesh Mar 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort ##### Ram Vignesh Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Fairmont Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-The-Fairmont-Winnipeg.h26715.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Mountain Bungalows](https://www.expedia.ca/Fairmont-Hot-Springs-Hotels-Fairmont-Mountain-Bungalows.h8663983.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Bruce Peninsula](https://www.expedia.ca/Bruce-Peninsula-Hotels.d6339924.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sun N Sand Hotel Mumbai](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Sun-N-Sand-Hotel-Mumbai.h798914.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Montreal Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Montreal-Airport.h22619021.Hotel-Information) > > [Trident, Nariman Point Mumbai](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Trident.h3145.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express and Suites Kitchener Southeast by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Hotels-Kitchener-Inn-Suites.h1457806.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Bridgewater Hotel & Convention Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Lunenburg-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Bridgewater-Hotel-Convention-Centre.h3812334.Hotel-Information) > > [Planet Hollywood](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Planet-Hollywood.h83055014.Hotel-Information) > > [Della Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Lonavala-Hotels-Della-Resorts.h6492918.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Mumbai Juhu Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Novotel-Mumbai-Juhu-Beach-Hotel.h49261.Hotel-Information) > > [Niranta Transit Hotel Mumbai Airport - At Arrivals](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Niranta-Transit-Hotel-Mumbai-Airport.h15432756.Hotel-Information) > > [The Leela Mumbai](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-The-Leela-Mumbai.h17773.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oberoi Mumbai](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-The-Oberoi-Mumbai.h4772.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Auckland](https://www.expedia.ca/Auckland-Hotels.d178233.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Costa-Rica-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d42-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Taj Lands End](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-Taj-Lands-End.h905407.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Mumbai-Juhu.h860842.Hotel-Information) > > [The Broadview Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-The-Broadview-Hotel.h18382156.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Kelowna-Kelowna-Hotels.0-n3000662835-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The St. Regis Mumbai](https://www.expedia.ca/Mumbai-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Mumbai.h5301691.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to San Diego (SAN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/san/vancouver-to-san-diego) > > [Flair Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Flair-Airlines-Flights.cF8.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Richmond (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Fargo (FAR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/far/winnipeg-to-fargo) ### General
