“Low Price Iinteresting Experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2007
4
people found this review helpful

On the positive side there were no bed bugs. Clean but worn sheets. Location near the capital. Manager was helpful and price was low. Got a great nights sleep in a comfortable top bunk. Tom's Diner around the block was great for breakfast. TV and 2 showers in basement. Did not have a security problem for our one night stay. Police station around the corner.

On the questionable side - neighborhood is on the down side, adult peep show around corner, drunks on street, maintenance and cleaning is needed. The ceiling had fallen, toilet seat was on the floor.

Would I stay there again - yes, but it will not be for everyone. Took 16 of us without a problem.

  • Liked — Got a good nights sleep, interesting experience.
  • Disliked — Poor bathroom

The manager was nice. The residents were nice. It was about $12, including tax. It was about 6 blocks from the free downtown bus.

“Checked out before I'd stay”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2003
12
people found this review helpful

There were faeces in the showers, and the place didn't get much cleaner.

The district was punk city, with suggestive comments being thrown at anything in a skirt.

We checked out before we stayed a night, moved up to the Marriot hotel - although expenise at least it felt safe.

There are other hostels in Denver, and I think they probably all deserve your attention before this one.

I was with my pal during three weeks this year visiting Denver and surroundings,in the beginning of our trip and at the end, at the youth hostel. It was very friendly, clean and social. This youth hostel gives value for its price. I like the people running it. Especially Chuck. He is wellcome at my place(:-)
with friendly greetings
Peter
