ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. The neighborhood is unsafe. The hostel itself was disgusting. There was mold growing all over the shower, gross stains all over the sheets, and we just had a little slider for our door lock. In the early hours of the morning we had people climb up the fire escape and start pou...

Don't sleep in this hostel. The spring mattress was so bad that you better can sleep on the ground. The mattress was too old that you can feel everywhere the spring. The staff are not friendly. They...

DON'T STAY HERE!! The place is a dump. There are holes in the floor and walls, and the shower was a wooden surround with a floor that was disgusting. There's no 24 hour Internet. Avo...

I don't know what they're saying about the luxurious condos around. Vancouver doesn't have much of a ghetto... but if it did, this is where it would be. That didn't really bother me, though. What bothered me is that none of us could sleep because the smell of the cleaning solution was burning our ey...

I have lived in Vancouver all my life so i know it like the back of my hand. I haven't stayed at this hostel but I know the area and I'll let you all know this is not the place or area to stay in. it is possibly one of the worst areas in Vancouver. Trust me on this I drive by it regularly and I woul...

I have never stayed in this hostel but I would like to reiterate what several people here have said: DO NOT stay here! This is about the last neighborhood in Vancouver no, make that Canada that you want to stay in as a travel...

I have traveled alone to 21 countries and stayed in hostels in third world countries, but this hostel by far was the WORST! Never have I felt as unsafe or as uncomfortable as I did here. I had an old man barge in my room screaming, Don't you sleep here, the place is full of weirdoes!! They will tie ...

I meant to stay here at the start of '02. I saw it on a flyer and it was cheap so I booked ahead. Upon arrival I had to ask the driver where it was, as I couldn't see any sign! He pointed to a green door on a rundown building we stopped outside of. I went in by myself, as I was meeting my friends th...

I remember the Ivanhoe all too well from my drinking days. The fact that it is now called the Central Station Hostel changes nothing. It is a scum pit in the middle of Skid Row, and I would be truly concerned for the safety of any young woman travelling alone who decides to stay there. Avoid this pl...

I stayed at C&N Main Street for two months. I met some really cool people there. While there only two out of the four showers were working. The man who I won't name but anyone who has stayed there knows who he is he is supposed to provide travelers with a service but instead patronizes them and rips...

i stayed at this hostel for a few months in the summer/fall of 2006. it is cheap and easy to get downtown by walking the viaduct or skytrain. it is fairly clean, but has the occasional cockroach/mouse. unfortunately, the guests here are treated like it's a group home/like children. there are many ru...

I stayed at this hostel in 1998 and it was ok. It was good value, but had they summer rates by the month, I would have stayed longer. The staff was friendly at the time. It is a good, no frills place to lay your head at n...

I was frightened by this hostel entirely. Although at a convenient location (right beside the train/bus station) and a decent nightly rate, the hostel is not at all comfortable. The kitchen is not equipped with anything other than pots. The bathrooms appeared to have never been cleaned and the staff...

It's a nightmare to stay in this hostel. The first night was so cold and noisy, people were yelling and screaming under the window. I couldn't sleep until 3 o'clock in the morning. The bed sheet was dirty and smelled. The floor was wet, and the window was cracked and full of dirt.The second night wh...

It's in an old building, but it's nice and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Towels you receive upon request. The pickup from the airport is fantastic. Some rooms are newly renovated, and have TVs and fridges. They have a big DVD collection, many of which I've never seen before. All togethe...

Mixed opinions on this one. After we traveled over 4,000 miles to see Vancouver the only the thing my girlfriend and I wanted was a bed with clean sheets (pubic hairs and stains were on the sheets provided). Unfortunately we had to get a fresh set of sheets, but even they didn't fit the bed properly...

My boyfriend and I booked a private room for two nights last summer and it served its purpose as a place to sleep, but I wouldn't stay there again. We were thrilled to be within walking distance of the bus station, Chinatown, the beach and lake, and spent as much time as possible in those places rat...

My room was anything, but clean. I decided to book a room with a shower. The room smelt strongly of cigarettes and everything I touched was covered in layers of yellow stain under the dust. It was impossible to view the TV as it was filthy. The shower was dirty, but the toilet relatively clean. The ...

The building is old, but the atmosphere is cozy and the staff is friendly, helpful and nice. The hostel is centrally located. Everything is in walking distance. And the people are nice. The best is the free limo pi...

There are two C&N hostels near the train station. This is the second one, and make sure you stay in this one. It is a block farther but nicer, cleaner and does not have a very cra...

This is a hostel in name only. What it is, is a spruced up skid row hotel the Ivanhosed with a surly staff and a clientele with few travelers and more creepy down and outers. The hostile staff was unaware of the reservation I'd made online and supposedly had paid a deposit on. I had things taken fro...

This place used to be a dive in a dive hotel. Now it's been painted, cleaned up considerably and is not too bad. It's literally next door to the bus station, and does have a bar that looks raw at first glance. But I've often stayed at the Cambie in Gastown and NEVER had the problems with noise at C&...

Yup, this place smelled of a unique combination: cigarettes, weed, vomit and armpit all rolled into one. Although it is in close proximity to the train/bus station, the convenience is really not worth spending a night here. Splurge and stay somewhere decent. Ladies, please do not even attempt to go ...

great place, central super helpful and friendly staff - user review
The rooms are spacious, big windows, which allow lots of sun to come in and great views. From my room I could see the future Olymic village and the ocean of False Creek. Sit...
