8th & Ardmore Hostel

"I liked the idea of the self-running hostel! :) I was in a room with 6 gentle men. So at firstI felt. afraid and uncomfortable. But thank god, I came to know an old tennant in the hostel who showed me around and introduced me to the rest of hostel tennants. His name was Albert and he was super nice. So it became so fun and I made some good friends. Wifi was super fast and place was clean."

"I stayed here for 3 days and it might have been the three worst nights sleep of my life. This is a flophouse, make no mistake. It looks cute on the outside and it is pretty clean. The people staying there are trash though. The first night someone was in one of the beds we booked and our contact didn’t respond for quite a while and acted like it was no big deal. People turning lights on at 4 am packing their bags and clomping around with their shoes on, going in and out of the room 4 times between 4 and 7 am. Watching videos without headphones at 3 am and one guy that snored so hard I thought he might die. I would have been better off sleeping on skid row."

"Very clean and well maintained. Online checking so convenient. Only problem is parking. Paid 10 dollars a night only to be boxed in, in their tiny lot. Had to spend 50 bucks on uber, after paying for parking too... Owners should consider how many people they give the parking pass."

"I wasn‘t really comfortable in the hostel. The neighborhood is bad and the people staying there are weird. 50+ and Not social at all. You eat with them and they make weird noises, you stay in the same room as them where they seem to have all their belongings and make weird noises as well. The hostel itself was clean, but the people made me pretty uncomfortable. I wouldn‘t recommond staying here as a solo traveller or anyone, sorry. Also the fact that there was no recpetion, but everything through online contact made it even more uncomfortable."

"First time staying in a hostel. I must say this place was a great first experience. Super clean! Awesome communication by the owner. Would highly recommend this establishment. We had a private room with 2 beds and there is plenty of room! Clean kitchen. Clean grounds. Really nice place for the value!"
