Bunk & Brew Historic Lucas House - Hostel

Very good

Liked: Nice people and community. Charming facilities.

Bad

Disliked: They left me stranded at 1 am because they failed to send me the check in information

Good

Liked: The hostel has a very chill vibe, which is great if you’re looking for a social and laid-back experience. It’s not a standard chain hotel, so you get to meet all kinds of people, and that mix of personalities can be fun and interesting. The location is also excellent, which makes it convenient for exploring the city.
Disliked: Since it’s a shared space, things can get a bit messy and noisy depending on the other guests. It lacked some cleanliness compared to what you’d expect at this price point. For a hostel, it felt a bit expensive, and aside from the location, I didn’t see much reason for the higher cost.

Very good

Liked: Nice staff, cool vibe. I paid for a private room. Clean room and clean bathroom considering its a hostel.
Disliked: Access to clean towels would have been better rather than having to go and look for the.

The property is running a...

Liked: The booking web pages were misleading in that they did not disclose that the facility was for women only, and I am a man. The reception person was cold and rude. He was not supposed to run my $81 charge until I showed up, but he ran it beforehand, along with an additional charge of $77 which I found out only after calling my credit card company. He told me I had to call Booking.com to get a refund, but Booking.com said the property had to make the refund. When I informed the reception person of this fact, he readily told me he had authorized the refund. It seems like you are running a scam to lure men into bookings, then making it extremely difficult to back out, hoping they walk away because it’s too much of a hassle to get out of it.
Disliked: See above

Very good

Liked: Location, food, music, friendly staff, atmosphere...all excellent
Disliked: Bathrooms could use more attention (stopped up sink in annex, no TP in bath house room. Bunks need to be tightened occasionally so they don't move and squeak so much. A small shelf for phone, glasses, etc at bunk would be nice.

Good

Very nice place to stay

Liked: The amenities. I liked the fact that there was multiple showers, a sauna and the location of the hostel overall was in a great area.
Disliked: Only the fact that there was no hot water in ONE of the showers. The other 2 showers had hot water, so it worked out.

Very good

Liked: Convenient location, friendly staff, respectful guests, rich amenities. I slept well most of time
Disliked: Limited restroom - there are multiple times I had to walk around looking for restroom. There is only one restroom in Annex house. Not fun having to run to Lucas house and then the bath house and every one is occupied (only 5)My mattress is extremely squeaky. I could be just moving my arm to scratch my shoulder and the whole room will be notified of my movement.
