I’ve stayed in a many a hostel in many a country in my time as a solo traveller, I have yet to experience the anything close to the experience I had here, shoes stolen on CCTV at 2am seemingly brushed under the carpet even though the culprit was identified! My closest shower had mold on the ceiling, wasn’t sure if the bar of soap was provided for guests or if it was made up of the dead skin cells of the racist long term guests that congregate in the living area to seemly discuss the issues of the day and to return to their seats indented with there exact figure due to over use. The smell of cannabis was potent at the front and rear of the building and was almost unbearable to times. I never used the common area’s with the aging populous as it constantly felt I was living in a real life faulty towers. The staff on the other hand were fabulous, couldn’t do enough for us guests, hats of to you, you can only work within you’re means. I had been made aware to keep all belongings within eyesight at all times, I was told by fellow travelers in OTHER hostels outside of Ottawa. This really does need addressing and I’m sorry I’ve had to be the one to do it. A lick of paint is only the start of fixing the issues, I’m not even sure Alex Polizzi could fix this without a huge financial backing.

I stayed in the cheapest single cell, where the bed just barely fits between the walls.. The mattress was very comfortable. The best place to store your luggage is under the bed. If you have a lot of luggage, shoving it far back under the bed can make it hard to retrieve. You could tie a rope to the bag so you can pull it out. When people are around, there's lots of noise in the cells. My trick for fealing with this is to use a phone with small, comfortable earbuds and an app that makes loud soothing noise -- like a rainstorm. (Many newer phones don't have a socket for earbuds. I bring along an old phone for this; it doesn't need cell service, though you'll need Wi-Fi to download/update a sleep app. I haven't tried iPhones; I use Android, which can be much cheaper.) I'dbbe cautious about wireless earbuds here... if they come out of your ears while you sleep, they could fall off the sides of the bed. (Getting under the bed near the head is not easy!) Wired earbuds are cheap to buy, especially on a site like Amazon with lots of choice (and reviews to help you choose). Maybe it was the size of this large hostel, and the empty halls, that made it feel less welcoming. I like hostels full of life, so I'm not sure I'll be back.
