Staff ( especially Beth and Sandra ) were great! It was wonderful to have a nice breakfast of protein, vegetables, and bread. It was nice to have a free tour done by Sandra to see some of the city. Beth helped us get Uber ride set up the night before for early early morning. The staff is very servant oriented. The only complaint I have is that they push the gay agenda really hard, with signage all over the buildingand that’s not appealing to many people.

We had a great stay at Samesun Vancouver. Beth checked us in and was incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. The location is fantastic and made it easy to explore the city. The only downside was that there isn’t an elevator, so you’ll need to carry your luggage up some fairly steep stairs. Aside from that, it was a great experience, and we’d happily recommend it to others.

Staff were extremely helpful. Great breakfast for a place like that. Focus on healthy and eco friendly. Bunker bed was smaller than I expected for an adult. But it was a great use of space and cozy. Walk right into the street to get to anywhere- bus stops, food, hospital, everything is in walking distance.

It was a bad choice for me. On the night of check-in, the staff at the reception was simply indifferent and didn't care about their work. When booking, I had no options to choose only a female room, I had to take a 4-bed mixed room, and I also paid extra for a bed on the lower level. When I arrived to check in at the hostel at 12 at night, I paid for everything and they gave me the keys to the room. There was just a pigsty in the room. Stinch. Complete darkness, in which I saw and realized that there are already 3 men in this room. One was lying naked. The other was asleep, and the third said that today they had a "beautiful night, because there is a girl in the room". At the same time, they also gave me an upper bed. I went to the reception and explained the situation. It was absolutely not safe for me. To which the reception told me that it was normal and nothing terrible. Think about 3 men who are 3 times bigger than you. As a result, with a very big scandal and discontent, the girls at the reception still confirmed that I had booked the lower bed. They changed my room to a 6-bed room ONLY FOR FEMALE. And in the morning I met 2 guys in the new room. Decide for yourself whether it is acceptable for you or not.
