    genuine hospitality
    backyard activities

    The staff here are like family, they genuinely cared and made me feel welcome. I had an unbelievable time bonding over a backyard bonfire with fellow travelers, sharing stories while roasting marshmallows.

    It wasn’t exactly inexpensive, but honestly, for the experience I had, it was worth it.

    I loved the charming, cozy atmosphere of Rad Hostel. The common areas were inviting, with comfortable seating and beautiful views of the mountains. The staff made accessibility easy, ensuring I felt at home during my stay.

    biking opportunities
    social activities

    I enjoyed everything. The staff was helpful and always around to chat. I loved the activities throughout the week. The bikes were free to use, which made exploring easy and fun. I focused more on enjoying my trip without a TV in the dorm. It snowed during my stay, and I could see the mountains from the patio. Meeting new people was great for someone traveling alone.

    No mention of negative aspects.

    We had a private room with a nice bathroom. Super friendly staff, especially the Aussie at the front desk. The room had everything we needed. Activities every night if you wanted to join in. Breakfast was great. The backyard was awesome for kids with swings and games!

    limited breakfast options
    unclean dining area
    high prices

    During my stay, I appreciated the helpful staff and enjoyed the variety of activities available, which made it easy to meet new people. However, the cleanliness of the dining area could be improved, and I found the breakfast options limited. Still, it's a good spot for travelers looking to socialize and explore the area.
