It was a great stay overall. Room was as advertised, staff is great. That is if you don't mind the music coming from the bars downstairs.

Definitely Book This Place!
We happened upon the Cambie Hostel because two VRBO hosts canceled on us, on the biggest weekend in Vancouver's history-the Taylor Swift Era's tour FINAL stop. We never stayed at a hostel before and were a bit apprehensive. We were SO lucky and SO pleased that a room opened up at the Cambie! The front desk hosts were always pleasant. The room was spotless and so comfy. Everything we needed was within walking distance to the hostel. BEST SPOT EVER!!! Malone's was a terrific spot to eat at before seeing Taylor. The 515 Bar was one of the best bars we've ever been to-what an amazing vibe! Every single person we encountered in Vancouver was so kind and helpful. We will definitely be back!

My stay there was very good. Bed,bathroom,kitchen was good. Staff were most welcoming & helpful. What I am still not happy about is I have not recieved C$5 credit to my card for return of the towel issued.

Great location & walking distance from everything I wanted to do while I was in Vancouver. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Next time I visit Vancouver (hopefully soon for Grey Cup / Taylor Swift) I’ll definitely try to stay at the Cambie Downtown Hostel again!!!

I had everything I required for my stay, except for hot showers. I never got any hot water. The best I could do was reduce the flow to a near dribble & get a tolerable tepid. The noise from downstairs was constant thru most of the nights, but I wore earplugs to dampen the sounds. However, on Friday night, they played loud music & I could hear the bass & drumbeats thru my plugs. I was kept awake until past midnight. Also my food was once stolen from the kitchen.
