 carinaschmidtknorreck1915 from Germany stayed here on 30th August 2010
Small and simple rooms but clean. Huge beds and very helpful staff. Some of the rooms are very loud because of the bar in the same building. Fortunately we had a room on the 2nd floor quite far from the bar so that we could sleep without earplugs. The washrooms were very simple and there were leaks everywhere. Great atmosphere in the bar and for sure a place to have fun!

The location wasn't the best and it is only 2 streets away from the drug area which we didn't know when we booked it. Don't go on East Hastings St near China Town! Most staff were friendly enough. Free coffee and muffin in the morning. Muffins were huge and delicious! Or you could upgrade for $2.75 and get a cooked breakfast.

Very big hostel. The ground floor is a really noisy pub. Difficult to sleep. On the positive side, the beds are really big. Friendly staff.

It was hotter than hell when I was there, I could not sleep. However it was also super hot for Van, so normally you would not have to worry about that. It may not have been the cleanest place I've ever been in but the beds were nice. The kitchen and common room were lovely, with nice big windows that made for the smoking of a joint without management finding out is a plus or negative depending on how you swing. The bar is lovely and has as cheep of beer as you can find in BC. The location is kinda sketch,

The Cambie is a fun and lively joint, complete with warped floor boards and showers that don't keep a constant temperature... It's great for hitting the bar and having a big night... The people are real characters and the beds suck. Still fun though... Like a happy Fight Club house.

Great party location with pub attached. Well priced with breakfast included. Only complaint would be the washrooms and showers.... No privacy and not even a hook to hang a towel. That aside, it was a great stay.

BRING EARPLUGS! Noisy at night, especially if you are above the bar, but with ear plugs we had a very excellent sleep...rooms on the top floor are the best! 207 was awesome, great view of the Cambie Street and Cordova. Also great view of the mountains. The common room and kitchen was alright, although the kitchen was a little lacking and one of the burners on the stove was busted. All in all we had a fun time at the Cambie-Gastown, the bar on the main floor had cheap, tasty pub food and inexpensive drinks,
