Ty the Real estate Guy Ent (Ty the Real Estate Guy): These drinks 🍹 are great 👍🏿 and tasty 😋 that will give you a nice buzz, with the lively vibe that the restaurants atmosphere gives you. Definitely a must goto while visiting Boston I’m rating zuma Boston with👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 because things are a bit over priced but overall great experience.

C C: I will preface this review by saying that I stayed the weekend of the Boston Marathon and that may have affected my experience more positively or negatively compared to baseline.I've stayed in hostels all over the world and I will say this one was cleaner than probably 70% of them. Newly renovated bathrooms which were kept quite clean. Showers were plenty hot, sheets I received appeared clean, the mattresses were nothing special but I slept okay on them.Clientele was overall very polite, everyone else in my shared room was running the marathon the next day. On any other given weekend I couldn't speak to the caliber of folks staying, but I felt really safe and didn't have any serious concerns about my valuables/safety.Amenities I used: Small lockers in the shared room allow you to lock up valuables (bring your own lock). The luggage room is unlocked and not supervised but the hosts were very accommodating allowing me to leave my suitcase on the day of my departure so I didn't have to lug it around sightseeing all day. Not a ton else going on, the main lobby is nice for socializing. Breakfast in the morning is basic - toast with jam/peanut butter/butter and coffee which was a nice offering. I would highly recommend a short walk to Santanas plaza for an affordable (and plenty of options) breakfast menu with huge portions, consistently busy but did not have to wait long for a table or our food. Otherwise supplementing the toast and coffee with a bigger 2nd breakfast in the city (Mike's Pastry) is always a safe bet.Considerations that may or may not be a dealbreaker for some: Location - 10-12 minute walk from public transportation which will get you into the city in about 20 minutes. Not the worst and nothing they can do about that, but its a little out of the way. I would have some reservations making this walk alone in the dark. Pricing - $80/night for a shared room seemed a little steep to me based on the location, but demand may have been higher for the weekend I was there since Boston marathon was the next Monday and they seemed pretty full. That all said, we booked through hostel world and could have saved quite a lot in fees if we had booked direct with the front desk. Road noise: Our room was next to a very busy surface street (and a roundabout). It was hot in the room so having the window cracked helped with climate control but the road noise was definitely noticeable. I always use earplugs and an eye cover at a hostel which helped a lot.Some fun extras: the front desk workers give out t-shirts as part of your stay. Everyone I encountered was real friendly and willing to help out with any questions I had. They are aggressively nice about asking you to leave a review - I did it for you Ray!Overall I would definitely recommend to a friend wanting to stay here.

Abram Powelson: Place is a little dingy and funky but it has charm. The room (6 bed dorm) was very clean. The guy at the desk tried very hard to accommodate my height (I'm 7') which was nice. Some great food nearby.Rooms: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Location: 4/5 …More

tej k: STEVE AT THE FRONT NEEDS TO LEAVE HIS TRASH UPBRINGING BEHIND. SHOUTING OBSCENITIES AT 3 AM IN THE MORNING AT A GUEST WHO IS PUTTING FOOD AT HIS FAMILY’S TABLE DOESNT HELP. MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO GIVE HIM A DRESSING DOWN!! MIND IT THIS GUY MAY LEAD THIS PLACE INTO LEGAL TROUBLES JUST BY HIS DISGUSTING BEHAVIOUR! STEVE GET HELP FOR WHATEVER PERSONAL ISSUES YOU ARE FACING! I WAS KIND THIS TIME, NEXT TIME I WILL SHOW YOU YOUR PLACE!!

Alondra Avila: Comfy, clean, staff really nice. It’s no close to downtown but it’s next of different buss stops

Judith Castro: It turned out to be a great place. We just stayed for one night in the private room which had a new bathroom and kitchenette, both super clean. Friendly staff and complimentary t-shirt!I just wished the exterior and the common area would be more inviting.

stem route: Spent a weekend at Backpackers Hostel & Pub, & I was very impressed. Clean & Comfortable with Great staff, good location, best price. I will highly recommend this place. Look forward to going back upon my next visit to.Best Regards,Jim

Austin Arizala: While I'd like to give them 5 stars (some staff are EXTREMELY NICE, offered to give people free rides when the orange line was down), it's definitely not a place for everyone. Provides a nice contrast with another hostel offering near here. This is more what I'd expect from a hostel experience: noise, a little more rundown, a few pests. If you are traveling with minors or prefer accomodations on the more professional side, you should go elsewhere.Also of note: don't rely on their breakfast. They had coffee though, and I live off that

HKT: The owner/staff were really helpful and giving people lifts to the nearest operaing metro station as orange line was closed. The dorms are pretty standard for a hostel. Relaxed atmosphere and I met some really lovely international traveller's. Location isn't the best but it's easy enough to get about. Local amenities on the door step. Can get the train to salem about a 15 min walk away. I'd stay again.

jaime starfish: The hostel is in a quiet area that's close to public transportation and plenty of store in walking distance. Staff and guests are warm and welcoming. Friendly environment and it feels safe. Nice and clean.Rooms: Clean and plenty of charging spots. Private bathroom in each room.Nearby activities: Parks and stores all within walking distance.Safety: Kids play outside and seniors and woman can walk alone.Walkability: Close access to stores.Wi-fi: Wifi freeFood & drinks: Beverages and breakfast available. Community fridge in the lobby.

mouss diaby: Génial !Tout était bon, seul (petit) bémol pas de cuisine, mais un évier, des frigos, un micro-onde et des ustensiles donc possibilité de rechauffer.Ambiance auberge de jeunesse donc très convivialLe service est incroyable, le proprio saura vous aider pour trouver des activités, vous déplacer, aller voir un match de sport.. L'attention est vraiment exceptionnel 10/10 !

Felix Riether: VERY good location close to subways and train station. Room (had a private room) are spacious. As you would expect from a hostel there’s no room service or housekeeping during the stay. Pretty clean as well. Minus one star for still being pricey but adequate compared to a full service hotel.

Can AYAZ: We came for Boston Marathon and normally we did enjoyed everything. however i lost my heart rate monitor in kitchen when I realized is gone I checked in kitchen it wasn’t there so I did inform reception, if they should look camera record they might actually find it but they didn’t… I buyed new one 100 USD, After we checked out in hostel we have a Amazon delivery. so we came for our cargo for take it. There is old guy with white hair he is behaving did to us too rude, he didn’t listen to us, we were hurry we need to catch our flight we just try to explain but he never listen to us…

Jennifer Scott: I stayed here for Boston Marathon weekend and had a fantastic experience. I was in a 6 bed dorm with 5 other women (3 from out of the country, 2 from the States) who all happened to be running the marathon too. Everyone was very respectful of one another and all the guests in general seemed to do well with adhering to the quiet hours. I also felt very safe. The dorm room itself was clean and organized. The lockers within the room were very large and had plenty of space to store a suitcase, purse, large backpack, with extra room to spare. I really liked the fact there were individual bathrooms and large a dining area where guests could store and cook food. Location was amazing and a half mile or less to the Common. One mile to the convention center for the expo and other marathon events. The staff was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. Highly recommend staying here.

Cindy Herrera: This is a long overdue review but I am so grateful to the staff at this hostel! I left my AirPods on my bed and they sent them back to me via UPS. It was also a great experience in general.A nice, affordable option to visit Boston.

Kelli Dougal: Location is awesome--very close to T station. The facility itself was pretty nice as well. I'm taking off a couple stars for 2 reasons, though. 1) Unhelpful, unfriendly staff. The staff came off as very cold and unfriendly every time I interacted with them. This is not only the front desk staff but also the kitchen breakfast staff. When I checked in, they were unenthusiastic to help me and the few times I brought questions to the front desk staff they also appeared uninterested in providing helpful responses. 2) Issues with storing belongings in lockers. On the day I checked out, I asked about luggage storage for a few hours before my flight. They told me there were self-serve lockers in the back for $3. I paid for a locker, locked it, took my receipt and left. When I came back later I was surprised to find that my locker was wide open! Luckily, I had not left behind anything of much value, but I was still pretty shocked and unimpressed. If I'm going to pay for a locker I would hope it would at least stay locked. So, although the facilities and location were fine, overall I was less than impressed.

Art Blackburn: It's just OK. The lighting is dim and the hallways are kind of eerie. Most rooms are quads, for 6 or 8. Rooms are very "hard" looking with little fabric to soften the look. I find the guests to be on the snotty side when they really have no reason to be. Management/check in is cold and stand offish. Breakfasts are mostly carbs. It's an OK but nothing exciting. In an expensive city like Boston, you get what you pay for.

Nat Smith: Best hostel I’ve ever stayed in!

송희원: 방은 적당히 깔끔해요. 화장실이 개인실이고 한 층에 많아서 좋았습니다. 위치는 green line이랑 차이나타운에 있는 orange line까지 걸어서 약 10분 정도 되고 여기저기 걸어다닐 수 있는 거리였어요. 카운터에 직원들 친절하고 체크아웃 하는 날에 3불 내고 짐 맡길 수 있습니다. 조식도 괜찮았어요 숙소에 돈 많이 쓰기 싫을 때 딱 위치 좋은 가성비 숙소 추천합니다

Viviane: Super auberge de jeunesse ! Je la recommande vivement !Nous y avons passé seulement une nuit avec une amie mais nous avons adoré. Le personnel est sympathique, efficace et très arrangeant (ex : nous avons laissé une valise pour la journée, ce qui coûte 3$, et lorsque nous sommes venus la récupérer nous avons pu nous rendre aux toilettes et attendre dans l'auberge l'heure de notre bus, malgré le check-out effectué le matin).Les chambres sont vraiment bien pensées, avec un espace pour chacun avec un grand casier. Les salles de bain/toilettes sont géniales. C'est une seule pièce avec toilettes, lavabo et douche. Tu peux alors avoir ton intimité et ton moment pour toi, et c'est vraiment très appréciable. Par ailleurs, il y en a beaucoup, donc l'attente est probablement faible. Toute l'auberge est très propre. Il y a également un billard, qui semblait gratuit pour un dépôt de 20 dollars. Pour finir, elle est très bien située !Le seul petit bémol c'est qu'on ne sait pas avec qui on va se retrouver dans la chambre. En l'occurrence on a eu quelqu'un de très bruyant le soir en rentrant, et le matin en partant.

Brigitte Merlin: Auberge très bien située et accueillante.

MARI LANGNAU: Basically, the hostel is ok. The location is excellent. The breakfast is extremely simple but ok. What is unfortunately not so good are the temperatures in the common areas. At the pool table on the 2nd floor the thermostat was set to 81 degrees Fahrenheit - was almost unbearable. We were not helped even after multiple requests. The front desk staff was very rude and didn't really listen to what was bothering us either. The only thing he repeated several times was that they could help if there was a complaint with the room - how moronic. We had also spoken to other guests who all had the same feeling as us. Then the next evening the temperature was suddenly set at 76 Fahrenheit.What's also annoying is that the walls are extremely bright and the room doors slam incredibly loudly.All in all, I would not go back to this hostel, especially since the price is extremely high for a hostel.
