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.

Dirty kitchen and bathroom. The shared dorm was okay, the bed was clean but the room itself was a little dusty and only had 4 outlets available for 4 people plus the provided fans. As expected it was pretty noisy due to the bar below but quite bearable in my room, and the noise died down at like 1am. One thing I appreciated was the security; you need keys to access the front door, the stairs to the rooms, the rooms themselves, and the women’s bathroom.

Cedar

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Cons-They are bunk beds. When the person on the top bunk moves, you feel it on the bottom bunk. (Shakes a lot) The rooms were hot with no option to open a window. There was a stand alone fan that was used. But a little war on positioning w the other bunk mates. Someone would get hot and turn it towards them, and continued throughout the night. Weekends are loud as there’s a saloon/bar underneath-attached. So bring earplugs. Pros- A couple of blocks down is the famous steam clock, shopping, and dining options. $2 oysters, limit a dozen, souvenirs and regular shopping, several bars and outdoor cafes. Easy walk to convention center, ship terminals, shopping, and parks. Can use an app and get a bike and ride around or walk. Abt a 30 min walk to Stanley park
