The hostel was great! It’s affordable and modern. Very close to the train station. The area is sketchy, so don’t go out at night, and the parking is difficult. The mattress was very hard but other than that everything else was great. Great price for breakfast and a good selection!

I have stayed in various Hostel's over the years & this one was very clean & safe. I did have my own room at the hostel, the room was very clean and had a safe as well. The hostel has cameras in the halls and keyless entry to the rooms, after 8pm you need a code to get up the elevator as well. The staff give you a map with local attractions to the city as well. The staff all speak good English & are very helpful. The hostel is very close to restaurants & local attractions as well & about 2 blocks from a busy train station. The paid breakfast was also very good, lots of options and fresh. The hallways can be busy in the morning & later at night from people coming & going but overall very quiet even when they had loud evening events going on (I did stay on the 6th floor for my stay). Would highly recommend staying here & would use some of their other locations in the future!

Great service!

Really good value and great service. I stayed with my family but I got the sense that they were aimed more towards a younger clientele. The 20-30 something’s in the reception were incredibly helpful when I had trouble parking and had good answers and suggestions for all my questions. Surprisingly perhaps is that this blew the service at Disneyland hotel (supposedly 5 star but I suspect they count the star in Star Wars) out of the water.

Nice hostel with a modern touch

The hostel seems to have been newly renovated and provides new beds, clean rooms and good common areas. Breakfast was ok, better than expected. The bathroom in the room was not so good, mouldy, dirty and loose tiles. The good thing was that functionality wise the bathroom worked.
Six bed room, partly divided into two sections.

Hôtel propre, personnel sympathique, mais pas facile de dormir dans des lits superposés à 3 niveaux car très peu stables et toujours en mouvement. De plus je pense qu'il serait préférable que les salles de bain et toilettes soient situés à l'extérieur des dortoirs afin de garantir le confort de tous.

Really loved the vibes here. Lots of staff and volunteers so tons of activities and fun people to meet. The rooms have real beds which is nice and the lockers are plenty big for all your belongings. Large kitchen with tons of free food, and amenities to cook for yourself, and was pretty clean considering. Really loved the vibes here. Would stay at this chain again.
