Located in Cumberland, Riding Fool Accommodation features barbecue facilities. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The property is non-smoking and is set 19 km from Comox Ferry Terminal.

Featuring a shared bathroom with a shower, rooms at the hostel also provide guests with free WiFi, while some rooms come with a mountain view. Lovely place for a stay. I spent just one night but was perfect. The room was cozy and the mattress really comfortable, on the firm side (just what I needed). Shared bathrooms are absolutely clean. There is a community kitchen which I did not use but great to know I could have. Check-in was super easy and independent which I appreciated because I arrived very late at night.

Set in Nelson, Dancing Bear Inn features a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. The hostel has family rooms. A lovely hostel in a great location! Sometimes hostels have a lot of rooms, and very little space for all of those guests to hang out. However, Dancing Bear Inn was perfect. There weren't too many guests, and there were plenty of different areas to sit and hang out which was great! Our room was really bright and comfortable, the whole hostel was very clean and all of the staff were amazing and super friendly.

Our hostel in Vancouver, British Columbia offers both private and shared rooms with individual lockers.

All prices include complimentary breakfast, free coffee and tea throughout the day, daily activities, a fully equipped kitchen and a community area with lounge, dining and work spaces.

The receptions is open 24/7 and we also have discounted Vancouver Canucks tickets for sale. One of the cleanest hostels I’ve ever been. Also, I normally expect to have to queue for showers and bathrooms in such busy hostels in mid July, but it was exactly the contrary. The experience was very pleasant and I felt like home.
