    I recently stayed at a hostel in a wonderful location on San Juan Island. My purpose was to explore the area for a few days. The hostel was centrally located near restaurants and shopping, with parking right outside. The private room and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. Despite the slightly higher cost, it was still a great value compared to other accommodations on the island. The hostel also had a large kitchen and lounge area for shared use, making it easy to connect with other travelers.

    I do recommend this hostel.

The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed. We also enjoyed the clean and comfortable bedding provided in our room.

    The location was perfect for exploring the island with everything within a short walk. The private room was clean and comfortable, and the bathrooms were well-maintained. The shared kitchen and lounge area provided plenty of space and amenities for cooking and relaxing.

    The hostel could improve on cleanliness in the common areas, especially the kitchen. It would also be beneficial to have more staff available for assistance and a more welcoming reception experience.

    We loved the location of San Juan Island Hostel. The kitchen was spacious and provided ample room to cook. The common area was a great place to relax with a pool table, games, and large TVs. Our Quadruple room had plenty of space for our group of five and even had a sink in the room, which was a nice bonus. The mattresses on the beds were comfortable and the room overall was clean. The one staff person we interacted with was responsive to our needs.
