Pros. The hostel was amazing, it was exceptionally clean and everyone was very friendly. Breakfast was very good and the rooms were very clean. We stayed in the suite which had a very comfy bed and a great shower. The hostel dog was very friendly and fun to hang out with.

Cons. We went out for dinner in downtown Thunder Bay on a weeknight and ran into someone who was giving us quite a bit of trouble. It is not at all the fault of the hostel, just bad luck on our part.
