This was a super place to stay! It definitely follows suit with other hostels with shared rooms and bunk beds, duh, but it's clean, the bathrooms and showers are plentiful and seem pretty new! The beds come with a light and fan which was really nice. Everyone was very helpful, breakfast was a nice addition and better than what you could get at a motel or something. Perfect location to everything and public transit too! Would definitely stay again! Thanks!!

Loved the place! It was my first solo trip and, as a woman, i wasn't too sure of staying in a hostel. But let me tell you all, i 've never felt safer. It's close to pretty much everything. I walked everywhere, didn't spend a dime on uber's or taxi's. There's a market right across the street and the hostel offers free breakfast. Overall it was a great experience
Came to town to attend a concert, and this location was amazing. It was also nice to partake in the tours that are offered through the hostel. What a great way to travel… although, I haven’t stayed at a hostel in almost 10 years, it was a great way to meet other travellers .
I lost my bags and the staff were very helpful and gave me toiletries and a towel to use in the meantime. They also gave great advise on seeing seattle on a budget and food recommendations. Staff was awesome. Facility was clean. Bathrooms are nice
The best hostel I have ever stayed in. It is very clean, the bathrooms are clean and private, there are fun activities each day and good common areas. The staff was always pleasant and it was a terrific value in a fabulous location.

Liked: Amenities
Everything was perfect! I was shocked by how clean the whole place is, I could've slept in the restroom floors. Staff was super friendly, shared room was comfortable, mattress was immaculate and the area couldn't be better.
Would definitely come back!
Great staff, vibe plus free breakfast. Amenities and cleanliness are above average as a hostel. Recommend to anyone looking for a economical accommodation.
Fantastic!! Personal fan, the reading light is more extremely bright and felt inconvenient to other roommates so I didn’t use it. The showers were a highlight.
Appreciated the fair price, quality customer service, and overall cleanliness of my stay. The bed was very comfortable too.
I would definitely stay there again!
Excellent location. Super staff. Evening activities and guided tours offered. Clean bathrooms. First time at a hostel and I definitely enjoyed the experience!
