Guest reviews for Dancing Bear Inn
"This was a beautiful spot that was very clean. The bunk beds are so comfy, the showers were very clean, and the staff was super friendly and accommodating. Plus the location was perfect - you just walk right out of the building and you're on the main drag. We couldn't get there our first night because the ferry was down, and the staff were very accommodating. 5/5 stars!"
"It was all great!"
"Everything was great! No faults. Stayed in an 8 room dorm, clean beds clean dorm and good vibes amongst travellers. Awesome kitchen facilities with fridge and gas-top. Bathrooms were great with plenty on each level. Super close to everything you want to see in the town of nelson. Cyndi manages the hostel, she is more than welcoming. Great place to stop in for a night or a week!"
"Nothing"
"Location, parking, beds. The sleep was very good. Mattress and pillow super comfy. I checked the carbon dioxide level (I’m geek) - and ventilation was better, than in a tent (around 1000 ppm)! Taking in account I was hiding on a lower shelf behind towels. Stuff is awesome."
"The kitchen and overall the downstairs space felt kinda industrial. Not very cosy."
"The communal kitchen is wonderful. As is the sitting room. People staying at a hostel have interesting stories and seem to be more authentic."
"The mattress was a bit thin. Very basic, but then again, this is a hostel."
"Excellent location, clean, quiet, cozy and tons of character."

"Good location, some parking spots in the alley behind the hostel"
"Few washrooms. Shower and toilet together, so had to wait sometimes."
"Great location allowing you to walk through the city center. The co-ed dorm was booked full but still clean with friendly occupants. The large fully stocked kitchen allows you to cook and store food on your stay. The hostel has an easy layout with multiple common areas to unwind and connect with others."

"This is a very nice hotel with nice amenities in a perfect location"
William Quality Inn & Suites Yorkton
"The rooms,kitchen facilities,pools ,the building was good"
"The location of the property is excellent for viewing the Aurora Borealis as it is located on the shore of Great Slave Lake which provides ample open space when the lake is frozen in the winter for a great viewing experience. The accommodations were comfortable and clean and well heated, a plus for a winter visit like ours.. Ben, the substitute on-site manager was extremely helpful during our stay. Yellowknife is a wonderful small town to visit and enjoy during the winter"
