    I would rate this hostel a 2 out of 5. The beds are super hard mattresses, no common room, the breakfast was ok.

    Squamish is a super small town and so there are very limited hotels in the area. I believe that…read morethere are only three hotels in Squamish downtown area. The Squamish Adventure Inn is one of them and the better of the three. We came here to stay a night and to get away from our busy schedule/ day. There were not a lot of rooms available at the time of booking. My friend booked the hotel/hostel. We got a private room in a shared room. We were in 208P and it was very interesting. When we entered the room 208 it has 6 bunkbeds shared with 6 people and on the side of the room there is another room labeled "P" and that was our private room. There is a bathroom and a shower room inside the room shared with everyone. The people in room 208 were very friendly and they were very young. I think many young people like to stay at this hotel after their Whistler trip, hiking trip and etc. We actually live around 40 mins away from Squamish but it was a very nice getaway for us to stay away from home. When we first checked in, we were given two pillow cases and a bedsheet. We had to make our own bed. This was quite interesting for me because I have never had to make my own bed when staying at a hotel. When we checked out, we had to remove the pillow cases and the bedsheet and drop those off in a bin located at the end of the hallway. This was the first time for me staying at a hostel. People were super friendly. There is a kitchen at this hostel and a comfy looking lounge area and kitchen sitting area. The downside is the interesting mattress. Because we were super tired and were only staying one night, it didn't really bothered us. The mattress feels like a trampoline. Yes, we giggled about it. Also, if you are staying here remember to bring your own towels. You can rent towels for a cost. Definitely a different and new experience for me. I do find that Parking is very limited. Luckily, I managed to find a parking spot here. I had a great time visiting Squamish and the best thing about this hotel/hostel is the location. It is just steps away from downtown. We were here on Feb 19, 2022. Family Day weekend.

    I personally had a good experience with Squamish Adventure Inn. We stayed here for 1 night,…read more8/2/2018. I booked a private room for 4, which was labeled hotel-style with it's own private bathroom and it came out to about $100 with taxes for the 4 of us. I booked about 2 weeks in advance. I noticed after I got confirmation, that check-in was to be before 9 PM. Knowing we were going to be getting in a little later Thursday night, I emailed them saying we were going to pull in closer to 10 pm. They responded quickly via email saying that was not a problem. We pulled up to the hostel around 10:05 PM, I checked in, and the lady showed me the place real quick, and advised the common areas (ie kitchen, cafe, movie room) were closing at 11 PM. They actually gate it off so there is no access during off hours. Our room was cozy. The beds were a little hard for me liking, but the room was clean. They provided a small fan. The window did not have a screen, so we did not leave it open to widely. So the room was a little warmer than we would have liked. Bathroom had a blow dryer, but you can only use it on low settings, so it's kinda pointless to use it. Notes say that if you use the high setting you will blow a fuse. Wifi was weak. The lady told us we could park at the entrance of the hostel on the road. So limited parking space. Cool that they had a slack line to play with and the property is on the river. Overall, if I was in the area again, I would book this place again!

The bathrooms have a lot of toilet tissue on the floors and they have signs that ask them to be notified if it's not clean but I didn't have time to wait. I didn't take a shower because there wasn't a lot of space to put my stuff down in a clean area. The bathrooms are shared, but they do have a really great mirror to put on make up. Extremely cramped living quarters with very little space to put luggage down. They require you to buy a lock for $8.95 if you want to stow valuables and it's a big bulky lock, that's heavy and you probably don't want to buy (wish they would rent the locks because I have no other use for this bulky thing). The worst part is the stairs... It would be a great work out, except that it's super annoying when you have heavy luggage to carry upstairs multiple flights of floors. There is no elevator, there is no AC, you better arrive tired because it's pretty loud at night. This hostel is 3 stars imo but I gave them an extra star because their staff is super friendly, it's a good location, their breakfast is convenient (fresh bagels with fruits and vegetables), and Vancouver needs more budget-friendly options.

I'm a very calm, sweet and good looking young woman and I'm not going to be humble about it. There was no reason for that bald male receptionist to be that rude to me given all the sketchy ppl that usually go to Ocean Beach. If you're a nice female customer, I would look for a safer location, and would never put your safety at risk on that place. The customer that was there was looking at me like he wanted to apologize for the receptionist's rudeness. It was really bad. I understand that ppl are not allowed inside to see the place for safety issues, but there are way kinder ways of saying it to a potential future customer. I can't stand when people in low paid jobs act like they have power (small power) and decide to be rude to kind people like me, and they do that with a big and ugly gummy smile on their faces. It's so petty!

The cleaning crew is terrifically efficient. I can admit, the host was pleasantly courteous. I would recommend this place to anyone. I was able find it easily, by taking public transportation.

    My friend and I booked VBG based on the good reviews on Hostelworld.com. The closest Skytrain stop…read moreis Metrotown and VBG is just a few blocks from the mall. We arrived in Vancouver on a light drizzly afternoon, and as directed, called the number so that we could ensure that someone would meet us to take us to our room. For more than 2 hours, my phone calls and emails went unanswered and I finally decided we would just walk to the address provided and figure it out from there. We walked thru a suburban neighborhood and a man raking his leaves pointed us in the right direction, which was a good sign that this place had been used by other travelers. The Guesthouse was just a regular house down the street. Upon walking inside, we heard complaints of the lockers having no locks and the dryer being broken, according to other backpackers. As it turned out, VBG is actually a variety of different properties owned by one person, who was in Taiwan at the time. The phone number provided belonged to the owner and that is why there was no answer. Meanwhile, staff members helped us check in, pay, and then walked with us about half a mile to another apartment, about 10 minutes (walking) from the MetroTown Station. Our apartment was clean and we claimed a room with 2 beds. We were given keys for our apartment and room, fresh linens, and then rationed 1 roll of toilet paper each, to use for a week. Anything after that, we were told, we'd have to purchase for ourselves. Check out was easy, just undo the linens and leave the keys behind. All in all, decent value for what we paid, (~$25/bed/night). We had about 5 housemates to share with, but there were no problems whatsoever. VBG was a good, quiet place to stay, if you don't mind being farther away from the city. Note: From the Metrotown skytrain station, it takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the City center. Don't stay here if you're looking to party. This Guesthouse is more suited for those who want a homey place to stay. In fact, 3 of the housemates were staying here (long term) while job-searching. My only complaint is that they should have provided better service to respond when we were calling the number they provided. If we'd waited for someone to call back, who knows how long we would have waited outside the BG Urban Cafe...

    After reading other traveler's experiences, I felt compelled to share a review, which I seldom…read morewrite. I am a 40 year old female from the US. I have not stayed in a hostel in about 12 years, but I was looking for inexpensive accommodations to explore Vancouver. Prior to my late night arrival I was emailed detailed instructions on how to access the building and I had zero issues getting into my room. The rooms are small and warm. I stayed here in October, and it might be a bit uncomfortable in the summer. However, the rooms were clean, free of pests, and I did not experience any of the street noise that other travelers commented about. Some of the showers are icky, but if you shower on a different floor than your room, others are much cleaner. The building itself is quiet, and the other guests were respectful. I felt very safe inside the building. That being said, the neighborhood can be sketchy at night. There are drug addicts on the street after 10 PM. I live near Portland, OR which has a huge homeless population, so I did not feel too uneasy. It might be a good idea to take a taxi at night if you feel uncomfortable. My only complaints were the condition of the showers on my floor and that the bunkbeds were a bit short. I am 5'7". This is by far the cheapest and least sketchy place to stay in town for the price. A private room was around $60 USD per night for 2 people. There is not a "hostel vibe" that you experience in other properties as the common areas are very small and the cooking areas are in the hallways. However, if you are looking for a place to lay your head while you spend your time exploring and money on good food and entertainment, this is a good choice.

    Squeak squeak squeak is all you hear on the lower bunk because…read moreThe bunk beds shake and make noise every time the person on top moves Cheap and affordable rooms, only $25 per night in a 4 bed dorm room Lots of European traveling in groups stay here Age range: around 20s to 40s, my roomates were in their 20s Internet was very spotty and disconnected often Restroom does not have a sink, have to go back to room to wash hands Historic building in downtown Vancouver, close to Granville SkyTrain station Originally built in early 1900's to accommodate railway and ocean-going travelers Showers and toilets are communal, two stalls per floor TV room downstairs had cable but the TV was 13" dorm sized Entrance is locked after 10pm, safe and secure location Located about 10 to 15 minutes from nightlife on Granville Street Conclusion: I'm a light sleeper that was assigned to the lower bunk. Due to the random person on top twisting and turning and shaking all night (smelled like weed and talked to himself), I could only sleep 45 minutes that night. I was only expecting to have a roof over my head and a pillow under my head for maybe 6 hours, but it didn't happen. Unless you are on an extreme budget, whip out an additional $10/night and stay at Hostelling International Vancouver Central instead. It's right in the middle of the entertainment area of downtown Vancouver, the beds are much more comfortable, and the facilities are a bit more modern.
