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.

I was made to feel incredibly uncomfortable and afraid to stay due to the men in my room. The hostel itself might have been ok but I was lowly fearing for my life.
