Designated parking area for the hostel. Very walkable to the downtown area. They made sure I had all the information I needed to check-in during their off hours so I wouldn't be locked out. Wonderful place to stay.

Clare

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was great. Good communication for after-hours check in. Difficult to find the entry when I got there, though, as there was no on-site signage, and the instructions were just to find the “correct” entrance as there are two hostels in the building. Place was clean and the bed was good. No big lockers for bags which was tough. Also very noisy and noise travelled through the hallways and into the rooms.

Considering Baron’s is a hostel, my teen and I felt safe and comfortable during our 2 night stay. The hostel was clean and offered us everything we needed. The location is fantastic. Parking is free. We went to the affordable pool / hot tubs next door and loved them.
