Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Everything was great! Kids loved the space, the books and national geographic magazines. Lots of space for a big family. Great location. All in all an amazing place to stay. Will definitely be back!

    It is a hostel so fancy was not expected but the towels were in poor condition, bed was difficult to access, no chairs for sitting on in the room.

    Char is super friendly. The location of the hostel is great, since it is super close to some restaurants and Cafés. The room and the bathroom was very clean. I felt very comfortable there! It also had a lil living room, where you could get in contact with the other guests. Would definitely recommend!!

    The tug was fabulous, such a unique experience. Enjoyed meeting, and hanging out with, Bouchra, her husband Daniel and her sister on the tug and dancing with locals to live music by the water. Unfortunately we arrived too late to partake in dinner and left too early to get our breakfast the next morning due to taking the Lady Rose Marine sailing to Bamfield. (Which was wonderful too) Great location to catch the boat, a few minutes walk away.
