This was my first hostel experience and it was better than expected! Friendly staff, clean rooms & bathrooms, great onsite cafe with free coffee & bagel each morning

Very clean hostel and awesome staff! Enjoyed very much my breakfast at a charming cafe, adjunct to the hostel, one free cup of coffee and a bagel. Will comeback.

The only thing I can say against this amazing hostel is the laundry facilities are very lacking for a hostel of this size. Only one dryer and one washer are working properly and the timing of both makes it very difficult to do laundry. Unless you have a few hours to potentially dedicate to doing laundry, I recommend skipping doing your washing here.

This is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in, which is saying a lot since I stay in hostels nearly full time! The rooms were kept very clean, the beds are very comfortable, there are ample bathrooms in the hallway, and good sized lockers and many hooks to hang things in the room. The cafe on site is very useful and reasonably priced. The included breakfast of a bagel and a drink is great too! Every single member of the hostel and the cafe staff was so friendly! They really make a difference in the overall experience.

My roommate could have been a bit more considerate but that has nothing to do with the hostel - everything they did and provide was GREAT.

I loved the private bathrooms and HOT water - the rug was nice - towel provided, free to borrow as well as the lock. The locker was plenty big enough for my carryon and backpack - could've fit a bit more even. The sheets were clean, everywhere was clean really and it was a nice area of town - reminded me of Greek row of a college. I liked the comforter provided and the pillows were decent, even almost nice - best I have had lately. It was quiet - the staff was super nice and it was great that they were understanding and accommodating about my request for a bottom bunk due to fear of heights. The breakfast was a nice tea and bagel with topping like PB&J and / or butter or cream cheese. It was plenty for me and a nice treat. I would happily stay here again.

One of the men's shower pressure was quite disappointing. I understand they're conserving energy, which is great, but I didn't know that it would be that extreme. All in all, nothing horrific :)

This hostel is bright, clean, cute, with lots of info and helpful staff. I loved that they were able to allow me to check in earlier than anticipated when my bus into town arrived early - that exceeded my expectations. The walk there from where my Flix bus dropped me off was super easy and comfortable to get to. They were very accommodating as I travel now with a CPAP for my sleep apnea. The bed was comfy. Let me borrow a towel for free which was a nice perk. I enjoyed cooking and eating in the kitchen. The hostel is located in a pedestrian friendly location, easily accessible to bars, restaurants, public transportation and other points of interest. I mostly walked everywhere, which was fantastic. Breakfast included a bagel and a drink (that Everything bagel is AMAZING). I loved the patio in the rear. Overall, pretty good value for the price.

They didn’t win 3rd best medium hostel in the world (unsure of criteria for this!) for nothing 😂 lovely atmosphere, a lovely bagel and juice for breakfast every morning that was easy to access. Lovely and clean. The staff were really lovely and happily provided recommendations. Drew all over a map for me, free lock hire (with small deposit) Really enjoyed this stay

If you read what I like - this question is irrelevant.

People - staff and visitors. Dude shoutout to my friend Matt from Jersey (not new Jersey) — that’s how he introduced himself. The facility is new! Clean! And the people? Top tier customer service! And the cafe??? Chef’s kiss! The bafwoom is clean like cleaner than your conscience. I hope if someone from the hostel reads this - they would message me in instagram. I didn’t get to say goodbye due to my early check out. My ig is itsajc1! Plssss! I want to be friends you idiots. Sorry im aggressive. Im just passionate. K bye. Its a 100/10! Yes. That great!

unfortunately my bed squeezed all night whenever I wanted to roll over.

Welcoming staff good location great vibe and free light breakfast

Everything was fine. I would not recommend walking at night though, because it’s Portland.

The breakfast was nice and free. The location is fine too. I liked that it has a lot of young people staying there and a sense of community :)

beds could be better, both the mattress and the metal noisy structure

excellent environment, clean, comfortable, fun!

The bathrooms were not very convenient and subpar.

The location is good and the staff are really friendly! They offer a complimentary breakfast but it's small (a beverage and a bagel). The staff is nice and friendly. The beds are okay but very hostel-like.

I loved everything!

This was my best hostel experience so far: the staff was amazing, everything was extremely clean, the common rooms were so nice, the location was great as well. I loved the breakfast !!

Frankly, I think they nailed it.

The bagels were tasty, the coffee sufficient, and the staff were always friendly.

The room was quite chilly the first night, but we were given a space heater after asking at the desk. Sometimes the bathrooms or kitchen appliances were all busy which was a little frustrating but not unexpected as its the nature of a hostel.

We rented the queen room on the second floor facing the street. The view was delightful and the room was clean. The bed was soft and it had enough covers to keep us nice and warm. There were two bathrooms with showers on our floor as well as a bathroom without a shower all were regularly cleaned and towels restocked. The kitchen and dining areas were fully stocked with appliances to assist in cooking which we did multiple times. The area we needed to go to every day was just a few short blocks away so it was excellently located for our needs as well. The photo contains the view from the rooms window.

Indeed one of my Best hostel stays until

I have stayed here multiple times in private and shared bathroom rooms. They are great. The location is walking distance to A LOT and if not then a short Lyft ride away! If you have a car parking affordable and I’ve never had too much trouble finding parking in the area they allow.

Nothing to dislike. Enjoyed everything about my stay

The whole property was very charming and the staff was incredibly kind and friendly. I will definitely be coming back here the next time I visit Portland!
