Nice people and community. Charming facilities.

Since it’s a shared space, things can get a bit messy and noisy depending on the other guests. It lacked some cleanliness compared to what you’d expect at this price point. For a hostel, it felt a bit expensive, and aside from the location, I didn’t see much reason for the higher cost.

The hostel has a very chill vibe, which is great if you’re looking for a social and laid-back experience. It’s not a standard chain hotel, so you get to meet all kinds of people, and that mix of personalities can be fun and interesting. The location is also excellent, which makes it convenient for exploring the city.

Access to clean towels would have been better rather than having to go and look for the.

Nice staff, cool vibe. I paid for a private room. Clean room and clean bathroom considering its a hostel.

Bathrooms could use more attention (stopped up sink in annex, no TP in bath house room. Bunks need to be tightened occasionally so they don't move and squeak so much. A small shelf for phone, glasses, etc at bunk would be nice.

Location, food, music, friendly staff, atmosphere...all excellent

Limited restroom - there are multiple times I had to walk around looking for restroom. There is only one restroom in Annex house. Not fun having to run to Lucas house and then the bath house and every one is occupied (only 5) My mattress is extremely squeaky. I could be just moving my arm to scratch my shoulder and the whole room will be notified of my movement.

Convenient location, friendly staff, respectful guests, rich amenities. I slept well most of time

The facilities were dingy and sort of dirty.

The backyard area and food carts were very cool. The staff was very nice

The old house is very atmospheric, although some areas could do with renovating. Synthetic sheets and lack of personal lighting around the bunk beds.

Excellent location and friendly staff. We were made to feel very welcome by Nix and Christine. The complementary beer was much appreciated. The food truck in the backyard serves tasty Mexican food. Bonus: taking a sauna in the bathhouse.

Great energy from staff and communal areas to hang out. I love the location, so easy to walk all over downtown Bend.

It's a Hostel, so as always expect to need earplugs, and maybe an eye mask.

The food and drink options near the Hostel are amazing. It's also a really short walk from Downtown. The folks staying there were really nice, and there was always something to do.

Loved the easy going staff, and open atmosphere.

Shower in house was dirtier and had lots of people's items in it but everything else felt clean.

Location, parking, friendly staff, very clean sauna,what you expect with a hostel.

Stayed in February 2025

No bed bug cover on the mattresses, fridge is unclean, bathrooms are unclean and gross, generally very unclean. The place really needs to apply bed bug covers on the mattresses.

Fun atmosphere, staff is very friendly. Common house is quite cozy and cute. Everyone is very young so if you’re young this is a good fit

More than the ideal number of people sharing a single bathroom. If anyone had been sick, it could have been a disaster.

Convenient location. Conveyed the “funky” Bend reputation. As a hostel, there were a lot of people in a small space and sharing a bathroom, but it was clean, remarkably quiet. And tall seemed to work. The price was unbeatable, and it was much more interesting than a standard inexpensive motel.

The only bad thing was that none of the rooms have bathrooms, and on the whole floor with 5 rooms there was only one bathroom, with one toilet and a shower. If it was occupied, there was one upstairs, and three showers in another building, which is not very practical.

The crew was the best! A lot of different young people, very kind and always happy to help. Every night there was a different event, I went to open mic night and saw bunch of amazing performers. They also cook lunch every day and you are free to eat. Wifi was perfect, as well as the location of the hostel.

The hot water knob in my building’s shower was missing. I had to come up with a creative solution when I was expecting a zero effort shower experience.

Free beer token was an excellent perk. Staff and other guests were friendly. I enjoyed a variety of good conversation.

location, cheap,

Beautiful old building, comfortable, filled with good people and good music. Very enjoyable.

Stayed in August 2024

There was only one bathroom in the building where the dorms were and the shower was out of service. The other facilities were in another building. OK for the day but a bit scary at night as the courtyard is open and anyone can walk through, ie:general public

Great location

how creaky the bunks were

fun space, casual atmosphere, beer, room had AC

Stayed in August 2024

Outside Noise, roommate noise

Friendly staff, nice vibe, clean

Stayed in July 2024

The dorm room was super stuffy with zero air circulation. I’m not sure if the AC was out or what but the windows didn’t open and it was pretty gross.

Ease of check in, accessible parking, private and lockable restroom with shower, cubby for bag/ luggage

Stayed in July 2024

There's literally no heat in the room. It was freezing. The loner heater didn't work, but they did give me a bunch of extra blankets.

The 1960s / 1970s vibe was amazing. The people were amazing and welcoming. Haven't been to a hostel like this since back in the day.

Stayed in June 2024

The noise from nearby thoroughfare was quite obtrusive at a very early hour. The loss of two big trees will be missed for their shade & beauty - very dusty & hot on that side of the hostel.

The house is perfect as a hostel, rooms and accommodations were just as expected - homey, tight clean & simple. Good use of this historical building. The extra outdoor/included amenities- sauna, beer & food trucks, music, fire ring give the place a feeling of ease & retreat. The staff was efficient & kind, and the 'volunteer' residents did their appointed jobs well.
