Yo first it was Never@home was my spot for staying when in Cape for comfort/price.
Now its 91Loop, for same reasons except they have better dine in option which is the bar food area in the lobby. The food they serve there is ABOVE par for a hostel! EXCELLENT!!
Location is perfect their entire staff is on point!

Clean room, restaurant inside the hotel food was delicious, they cleaned the room every day and staff was friendly.
The property was easy to locate, secure, and basic. They do not have a masssive kitchen to which your goods can be placed but a tiny fridge which only staff have access to. No eating in the rooms. Our private room was lovely and had towels, blankets, and a fan. The beds were cozy and the individual lights at the bunk beds were perfect for our children. The restaurant downstairs is good. It is awkward to eat though if you have brought your own food. For a hostel, this is one of my favorite aspects so having staff give you funny looks was strange.
I could not comment about the room of the hostel itself much, as I was lucky enough to have an upgrade to the apartment nearby, which was superb with large bed, big kitchen and roof top swimming pool. Very friendly hostel reception staff. Luggage storage was available before check in. Amazing breakfast in Side Bar of the hostel.
Nice place, nice location. Incredibly, no lift (you habe to carry your luggage through the stairs, no air conditioning (It was summer and difficult to sleep with a plain fun running).
The staff was 10/10.
Food is EXCELLENT way better than NeveratHome food especially Greenpoint.
Service was impeccable at the bar!
1st timer and definitely will return. Rooms cleaned daily. LOVED IT!!!!!
Our room was clean and for our family of four it had the perfect set up with one queen and two decent sized bunk beds.
Shower needs a bit of an update but otherwise the room was great.
Nice touch having complimentary tea, coffee & juice in the morning and offers to order a decently priced breakfast.
Location was close to restaurants.
The place is very secure, I stayed in the sixth pod bedroom. There is no AC the only downfall, but there is one large fan. It’s more of a relaxed, safe vibe opposed to the other hostels in the area are more lively and for the talkative younger crowd.
Had a wonderful stay at 91 Loop. The location is great and I enjoyed the free breakfast each morning. The staff is friendly and my room was comfortable and clean. Would highly recommend.
Good hotel, good location. Breakfast is good although same everyday but it’s free and tasty. Room was big good bathroom. Only problem they didnt have towels the day we arrived and had to wait to next day.
It was a good size room for a private room and bathroom. Joshua, was friendly and helpful. The room has no AC but a fan was provided which was fine. The problem was the room was at the corner of Loop and Longmarket Street and you won’t be able to sleep because of the noise. There were constantly loud noises, all day and all night long. We asked if we could be moved but there were no private rooms available. 91 Loop has a great location.
I had a good time. The hostel looks new and very hip. I just wish it was a bit more full. It was a little quiet. But I would definately recommend this place to friends and stay again

The property is centrally located, close to the mall, train station, tourist offices like city seeing and walking distance to waterfront. I think the breakfast time could be extended a little

Great service
Service and staff was excellent. Very helpful and attentive. It's just a bit loud and is more catered for a younger demographic.
I had lots of bug bites staying 2 nights at the hostel. Please avoid this place as much as possible. The main reasons are below.
1. Construction site right across the street, very noisy during the day.
2. No kitchen to cook food
3. Majority of rooms are very hot despite outside temperature was just 20-25 Celsius. And no A/C in the room I was staying.
4. Shower room has no hook or rack to hang clothes and put shampoo on. Very inconvenient.
5. Too many people staying here finish their parties after midnight. If you don’t mind, go for it.
I had a few days of holiday before conference but not much money. I chose the mixed gender 20-pod room and had no regrets. You get a twin bed with a curtain, some side space,/ and a locked cupboard. Showers and toilet stalls fairly private and usually clean. Everyone in the room was quiet and respectful. Pod was cozy. The breakfast is good and affordable. Staff are really nice. I’m a plus-size woman in my 40s btw. I had an upper bunk/pod. No regrets on this stay!
Front desk crew are habitually welcoming, friendly and involved. Housekeeping is phenomenally meticulous, and the rooms are scrupulously clean. Anything that breaks (lights, plugs etc) is literally almost immediately fixed, too.
And the breakfast is delicious and far more than the advertised "continental brekkie" with a choice of, I believe, 5 different hot dishes (I recommend the pancakes with syrup. And then add bacon and butter!)
Also, the folks in the resto are almost all a delight to deal with. And the kitchen is very, very good with their honey soy chicken wings as my personal fave!
