Convenient, Cheap and Friendly -...
Liked: The best part about Vancouver Backpacker House was the friendly faces both from Max, the manager and Nancy the caretaker. They were very helpful and lovely to chat with. Nancy especially made me feel very welcomed in a city I was new to.The other guests are what truly makes a hostel experience worthwhile. I was introduced to many lovely folk and despite not being in the heart of downtown, Burnaby is still a side of BC I was happy to call my temporary home.
Disliked: Admittedly due to the age of a place like this, the walls were quite thin and hard to adjust to at first.

Not an hostel vibes just...
Liked: It's close to the Train/metro (10' walks)
Disliked: Clearly managed online, and still everything is fee charge, like arriving earlier even if the passcode is set remotely, it's an additional fee, leaving luggage for a the day => fee. Weird checkin and payment option like transfert not secure or we pay the secure fee (again).

Liked: Price.
Disliked: Have very bad back, even a mattress topper would help not feel springs in mattress, thanks, but price was right for our travel, thanks

Had to leave.
Disliked: Creepy and horrible. Just some random dilapidated house. Owners will badger you all day and night to send them more money for PayPal fees.
