The wifi was a little wonky, the court yard smoking area left most of the house in a cigarette stench, there was only one (western style) toilet and one shower, kitchen lacked basic utensils and cutting knives (it's pretty hard eating oats and soy milk with chopsticks or chopping veggies with the one spoon I discovered at a later time) and there was no curtain in front of the dorm bed = zero privacy, I put my duvet up as a curtain as it was too hot to sleep with it anyway. What they have going for them is the nice staff, free towels, amazing water pressure in shower and free bike rental. Decent aircondition. Place is also nice and clean. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s713-p4f2f1ae0-988c-11e7-88a2-36ce2553897a-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s386-p8f7d5ad0-988c-11e7-a299-2249a29e6493-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Old Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Old-Montreal-Montreal-Hotels.0-n6058206-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Arabian Courtyard Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Dubai-Hotels-Arabian-Courtyard-Hotel-Spa.h1227381.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Lenox](https://www.expedia.ca/Lenox-Hotels.d8587.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Planet-Hollywood-Resort-Casino.h15117.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Downtown Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Toronto-Toronto-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n6057934-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Fairfield by Marriott Edmonton International Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-International-Airport-Hotels-Fairfield-By-Marriott-Edmonton-International-Airport.h38750670.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Toronto-Toronto-Hotels.0-n6057934-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Hermitage Hotel Mount Cook](https://www.expedia.ca/Mount-Cook-Hotels-The-Hermitage-Hotel-Mount-Cook.h179149.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sackville](https://www.expedia.ca/Sackville-Hotels.d9761.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Kyoto Machiya Zeniyacho](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kiraku-Kyoto-Zeniyacho.h42077450.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Peaks Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamloops-Hotels-Sun-Peaks-Lodge.h1639819.Hotel-Information) > > [Imperia Hotel & Suites Terrebonne](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Imperia-Hotel-Suites-Terrebonne.h5287912.Hotel-Information) > > [Canaves Oia Suites - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Santorini-Hotels-Canaves-Oia-Suites.h8307839.Hotel-Information) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Kaanapali](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaanapali-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d800065--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Tallahassee (TLH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/tlh/buffalo-to-tallahassee) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to St. Thomas (STT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/stt/vancouver-to-st-thomas) > > [Flights from Orlando (MCO) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mco/yvr/orlando-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/las/vancouver-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Sarasota (SRQ) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/srq/yyz/sarasota-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Boston (BOS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/bos/halifax-to-boston) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Kingston (KIN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/kin/toronto-to-kingston) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/cdg/toronto-to-paris) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Dominican Republic](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Dominican-Republic.d50.Car-Rental-Destinations) ### Packages > [Dominican Republic](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/50/Dominican-Republic) ### Vacation Rentals > [Jacksonville Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Jacksonville-Vacation-Rentals.d602997.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) ### General > [Visit Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary.dx178245)
