Latest Review for SameSun Backpacker Lodge - Vancouver
Maybe it's not the worst place in the world, but I have been in many better hostels. It is dirty; our room smelled really bad. People was supposed to be quiet from 11pm, but I was awaken every night at 3-4am because people were partying in the corridors (I suppose it's the perfect place if you want to party though!).
I wouldn't recommend it to anybody!
