    We were bumped to a private room for the same price and really appreciated the privacy! Everyone at the hostel was friendly and respectful of other guests. The room was clean and secure. The location was amazing - close to great restaurants and pubs; the university; groceries; and buses/LRT. We had an amazing time in Edmonton - thanks!!

    The Wifi was terrible, it was almost unuseful...

    Hostel response:
    Thanks for your comment. We have free WiFi in all of our common areas. But due to the amount of usage, it once in a while may be slower at certain times. Greg, Manager.

    The bathrooms were not clean, all other areas were good but maybe it was because I got in very late and left very early
