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 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.

Great location with a short walk to the downtown area and parking on site. Food trucks set up in the back with affordable and easy meal options as well as a beer truck! Tables and couches for lounging.

Only one bathroom upstairs

We enjoyed our stay! The kids had fun in the yard and the evenings with live music was real nice. It is a cozy hostel and felt very safe and social. The beertoken is a nice welcoming touch and the breakfast items in the kitchen was generous.

The airquality in the room was bad and the carpet smelled of dust and smoking. It triggered some allergies and headaches with some of us. I understand that it comes with the territory of many guests and an old historic house, so not a dealbreaker!

Very comfortable bed, clean bathrooms, and robust facilties. Very accommodating place to stay while traveling for work, having most of the amenities of being home, i.e., kitchen, workspace, etc. The staff is very friendly. A very sociable environment all around, with awesome foot trucks and community events onsite. It is a really amazing institution and historical site very close to downtown Bend.

It was a very welcoming and friendly place. The kitchen is very well equipped and there's a lot of common hangout areas. They had free live music on Friday night which was very fun!

The heating was WAY too hot. Even after asking if it could be turned down, we had to keep the windows open AND the fan on the whole time, which seemed a bit ridiculous.

Lovely people, free breakfast, sauna and bathhouse was clean and nice, lots of cute hang out areas, 5 min walk to downtown Bend.

Kitchen and bathrooms get a bit crowded with staff and guests, but everyone was very nice and respectful!

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.

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

Friendly staff and a cool environment. If you're a solo traveler or staying for a while, this hostel seems to have a great community. Amenities like nightly "events" and sauna are nice too.

Check in took a little while, but I assume that's mostly from the staff being new (staff at hostels rotate often)

Great location

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

This is a very different type of place to stay on booking,com, so it's hard to compare to other hotels. This is a hostel in downtown bend and of a slightly upscale hostel quality. So if you look at the negative side, the comfort side (bed quality, shared bathroom, etc.) is what you would expect from a hostel, but you are paying hotel prices. So why stay, here? Because you are paying for the experience. Where else do you get a beer token at check-in? Hostels breed conversation and during our stay, we met two retirees from Arkansas touring the West Coast. a hiker from Australia and a guy from Wisconsin who had been traveling for 3 years. We were there for a Grateful Dead tribute band and Karaoke night all in the hostel backyard. A backyard that has a beer truck and a Mexican food truck no less. If you want to stay at the DoubleTree, you probably should not stay here as a substitute, but if you want an adventure, this is your place.
