"Great access to Blue Mountain hiking"

7.0

Great people; staff and other travelers shared great information on trails and the general area. Location near train, trails and buses was super convenient

Winter issue only- the cold bathrooms made the thought of a shower intolerable.

"I had a great time. it was a great stay overall."

10.0

Room and common space were very inviting and comforting. The common areas like the kitchen and bathroom were very clean. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.

The wifi only worked in the common room area and did not reach the bedroom in case one wanted to work or use it in a private or quiet space.

The vibes were great, and the host is very relaxed and welcoming. He has created a great atmosphere and community in the hostel. The kitchen is also great if you want to cook for yourself.
