Monika LewalskaExtreme value for location and what you get! Friendly and helpful staff, home away from home atmosphere and feel. Great location - 10 min walk from downtown or 2 min walk from Skytrain. Fantastic! I plan to stay there again! |

Customer reviewThe hostel was OK but it was full of people living there full time and not so many travellers. Also a bit further from the center of town than they said in there ad. Not really the nicest area in Vancouver either.....surrounded by homeless people. But the staff were nice, except one, and the hostel was reasonably clean. And cheap! |

Customer reviewReally great staff - so friendly and knowledgeable about the city. Good location, really short walk to buses/skytrain and main bus station and short walk to downtown/waterfront. Great value for money, we are a couple and stayed in a private room which had everything we needed. Access to kitchens, multiple bathrooms and free internet. Would reccommend to anyone - we were so happy with our stay we booked in for another night when we went back to Vancouver! |

Sarah Tallett-WilliamsThe people were really friendly but not in a good location for anything but the train station. East Hastings is the main drug district and you have to walk through there to get to town!!! |

Customer reviewGreat location! Within walking distances to local buses, Skytrain & Greyhound. It is said that the Chinatown nearby is not a particularly safe place. But it seems to be O.K. at least before 9pm. The down side of that is my room by the Main St. is noisy all day & night due to traffic. My solution is to use earplugs & to have my head far away from the window. Friendly & hardworking staff. The common areas are cleaned everyday. For improvements, I'd prefer more than one set of power outlets per room. |

Evelyne FischerIt's a nice place to stay because the location is close to Downtown Vancouver and it's very affordable. However, you have to get used to the fact, that a lot of people are living, or better staying for a long time there, so you won't find only backpackers. The hostel itself is comfortable, only the lockers don't work properly, but you can give your valuables to the staff. |

Harrison WeiThe staff was super friendly. Hector and Joe were so accommodating, and I would visit them again. The price was also very affordable. The hostel is conveniently close to social locations such as the Night Club Gossip. |

Customer reviewwonderful staff. As an elderly person I really feel this is one of the best hostels I have stayed worldwide. Clean, safe and the area is becoming more upscale as each year goes by and wonder how long this hostel will be around before developers take over!!! |

Customer reviewI thank the Lord Jesus Christ, I had a very positive experience at C&N Backpackers. This is a hostel so the amenities are modest but the service and staff were quite excellent. I appreciated their professionalism and hard work. I felt safe in the hostel and environs. The neighbourhood is one of extremes of wealth and poverty, so use wise judgement in going about. -John 316 |

Customer reviewConsidering the price, this hostel is excellent! The staff and people in general are very friendly and helpful. Even though the location is really dodgy and not quite central, it has proven to be safe and easy to walk and take public transportation from. We would recommend it! |
