A fun hostel with lots of character! Staff was friendly and helpful, and the property had lots of charm. Bear in mind, it is a hostel, not a hotel; if you aren't used to staying in a hostel, this is not the place for you. Local breakfast places are incredible. We would stay here again.

The Purple Palace is a gem. Bring friends.

Great spot. Great cool hostel experience. Great service , super clean. An excellent base for exploring Algonquin park solo or with friends. The video is chill with a bit of rock n roll. Roland will treat you right. Great attention to detail in following the rules and setting up out side. Civilized beer and local tips abound. I will be back.

We enjoyed watching the sunset from the common room on the third floor. A good place for an overnight especially when cold and rain did not make camping attractive.

Very closed to Algonquin Park, but there is literally no sound blocking system in place . We can hear everything, from next door's family conversation to front desk's check in, to everybody walking to the bathroom at dawn, to people walking and running at the hall and upstairs. Bring ear plugs.

I would have given a better review if I were provided with towels. There were no towels provided! Overall conditions of the Hotel is fairly good. I think with this price, the Hotel offers decent facilities.

There aren’t many hostels in this part of the world and this one does it really well. People and service are very nice. My stay was on a Friday and it was open mic night at the bar. The small crowd was super friendly and welcoming. Really enjoyed my stay!

Not too pricey if you can stand the smell

Only saw the hotel staff once at checkin. It was quiet. However the smell was a bit much, it make you feel the hotel is not clean. The smell is probably due to poor ventilation, and the age of the building. The bathrrom garbage was filled to the top and the bag was not changed. The overall feel was a bit awkward.
