A clean hostel facility. Its inside UBC campus. Dorm rooms turned into hostel facility for the guests. There's no air conditioning in the rooms, but toilets, showers and rooms are generally clean.

The location is great and the staff is friendly. But there is zero acoustic insulation and there rooms doors locks barely work and the doors themselves slam like crazy. So better forget about being able to get any sleep.
