Customer Reviews HI - Charlottetown - Backpackers Inn
| 29 Apr 2013 Courtney, Australia | 100% | |
| This was a wonderful hostel to stay in, in fact, my favourite so far.
The staff is wonderful and friendly and you feel as if you are part of the family rather than just someone passing through.
I would definitely recommend it to anyone going to PEI. | ||

| Great location downtown. Very friendly staff and fellow travellers. Free breakfast is great and encourages everyone to mingle. All in all a really great place to stay in PEI | ||
| 29 Aug 2012 David, England & Wales | 100% | |
| This is the place to be, I extended my stay by 5 nights, the staff were excellant (nothing to much trouble for them)(Levi your host always has time for a quick chat) they take pride in the hostel and it shows, always clean, ever helpful, activities board always up to date. The staff help guest to mingle by introducing them on the walk round of the hostel this leads to very friendly and sociable atmosphere, there is space if you want to relax and be quiet but also a games garage for that outburst of energy. The hostel is located in downtown Charlottetown so nothing is more than a few minutes away. PEI has alot to offer from wonderful sandy beaches to informative walks around Charlottetown, the birth place of confederation. If you only stay in one hostel in your life make it this one, but book early, because by word of mouth this hostel fills up quickly. | ||

| There is meticulous attention to detail and makes the stay feel like you're at home. The banana bread is fresh and it's awesome that breakfast is included in the price. They also take into account about noise made at night by people walking in their shoes on hardwood floors. How considerate is that? I would definitely rate this place as one of the top ones to stay in the Maritimes. | ||
