I've
been
coming
here
since
the
early
2000's.
It
is
a
well
equipped
and
comfortable
hostel
with
a
northern
Ontario
quaintness.
The
rates
are
very
reasonable,
even
for
a
private,
large
room
outfitted
with
a
couch.
I'd
love
to
see
a
fire
pit
added
to
the
amenities.
The
staff
are
friendly
and
helpful,
and
the
building
is
clean.
I've
always
been
able
to
find
a
room
here
whenever
I've
needed
one.
This
is
excellent
basic
accommodation
without
frills
or
luxuries.
Be
prepared
that
the
stores
in
town
close
early,
by
6pm
(even
the
gas
station)
so
if
you
are
arriving
later
than
that,
stock
up
prior
to
arrival.
The
hostel
does
have
some
pantry
items
available
for
sale
for
good
prices.
Things
for
the
owner
to
consider:
improve
the
shower
on
the
third
floor,
oddly
there
is
no
cold
water
coming
out
of
any
taps
for
filling
drinking
water,
and
add
a
freezer
for
travellers
ice
packs.
Overall
though,
none
of
the
things
to
consider
would
stop
me
from
recommending
this
hostel
to
budget
travellers.
