“Just don't bother!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2012 via mobile

Quite honestly after staying at hostels across the world I was shocked to find this one to be the worst I have ever stayed in. Upon arrival we were greeted by an extremely rude and uncooperative staff member and told at 6pm that our room wasn't ready yet. We had booked 2 private rooms for 5 people. The Houston bed... More

“Did not like this hostel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2012

I've met great people there, BUT the hostel rooms and washrooms were not clean at all and their long-stay guests (of course not all of them) were weird.

“Excellent hostel in great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2007

I stayed two nights last week at City Hostel, 8 Gower Street, in St. John's. Private room w/private bath, facing the back of the building and overlooking the neighbors' gardens, was $58 CAD and an excellent choice for my travel dollars. Free internet, free laundry facilities, common kitchen area, located on a quiet steet at the intersection of Gower and... More
