A great little cheap, brilliant hostel beside a lake in one of North America's top skiing destinations. You can't do much better than this!
It is always advisable to book ahead with this place in all times of the year, as it has very limited places, and the male sections always go quicker than the female.
It's an affordable alternative to the other expensive lodgings. Access to and from this hostel is the only limiting factor. You have to catch one of only five daily busses, or walk (around 4km), or take a taxi to get there.
The rooms are small and crowded, but have lockers (bring your own lock). The bathrooms are also quite small, but it is a ski lodge, so this has to be factored in. The bathrooms and toilets are kept clean.
HI - Whistler, has a great kitchen, with a big see-through fridge and gas cooking. There is a free food cupboard, from which you can eat for free if you're on a really tight budget. The same goes for the fridge.
Internet is provided at cost ($1CAD for 10 min), as is a pool table, but if you're really nice to the staff member in charge, this may be free.
This is a great place to talk and meet people, as no television or radio is around, and the views from the lounge are to die for! This hostel is a great little place, with a huge heart!
