Everything was fine at this simple, affordable hostel, the only thing, they need to clean more hallways and dust. They are well located in downtown. They have there, towels, refrigerator, microwave, kettle, liquid dish soap, cutlery, crockery, cups, glasses washing and dryer machine.

The bunk beds and thin mattresses were a bit tough to sleep on but the building was very quiet and it is a hostel so i thought it was fine.

Great hostel!

St Clair is perfect for an urban hostel. I booked a private room with a queen bed for one night in April. The systems worked smoothly for check-in (door codes, wi-fi, etc.) and check out. The room was clean and neat, with a comfortable bed - more comfortable than I imagined! It matches what you're looking for in budget private room in a larger hostel. The place was overall very quiet and relaxed. I had a room facing the street and I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet the environment was. Yes, you can hear the street but it was not intrusive the night I was there. There was no noise from within the hotel. Surely, April is a down time compared to summer and holidays, but overall this place was calm and quiet. The bathroom stalls down the hall worked great and were clean. I did feel the shower's tiled floor could have been cleaner but again it's not a luxury hotel it's a hostel! Good water pressure and hot water! The sink in my room worked great.

It's good unique historic building, just south Gastown. With private rooms or for those to share a room amongst friends.

这家酒店除了价格便宜，没有任何优点，在市中心，房子房龄没有70年，也有50年了。周边很多liu-lang-han，住了三天晚上，每晚都有liu-lang-han在外面大吼大叫，吵吵闹闹。每天晚上都被警车警笛吵醒，晚上都不敢出门，好危险。
