Old restored building on the main street of Cumberland. Super clean shower & bathrooms, modern well equipped and well organized kitchen. Friendly, considerate guests. Loved the space. Just a hop away from swimming in and walking around Comax Lake in the afternoon. A great place to overnight, or stay for a few days to explore the area. Comfortable bed.

Room (a double) was a bit hot on a warm evening in July, but the ceiling fan in my double room really helped. Not sure if there are fans in every room.

Beautiful hostel located in the former general store. Lots of wood and character. Spotless. Good ratio bathroom per person. Very comfortable bed. The kitchen is very well equipped, including some basics such as salt and sugar. Lots of games in the common room. Free parking just outside.

There aren't infinite dinner possibilities in the neighborhood, so get organised! Also the quality of your sleep will depend on the kindness of your neighbours. Be considerate!

Great atmosphere, great communal spaces for eating, cooking, sitting or playing pool. Good bathrooms - never had to wait and great to have a full bathroom in each, not a shower room with cubicles. Room was small but comfortable. Place was quiet but friendly. Location was great for walking, biking, Comox etc.

Curtains were not good at keeping out light.

Gorgeous hostel, very clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Had everything we needed. Cute little guest garden where we sat and listened to a concert being hosted next door. Great community. Made me want to move in! I was really sad I only booked one night. Lots of interesting things to do around the place, amazing local trails, restaurants and a local museum. Highly recommend a visit to Cumberland and this hostel, it was one of my trip highlights.

Nothing not to like.

Everything was clean and tidy. Kitchen was kitted out with everything I needed. Very easy check-in with door codes. Cosy spot, would stay again!

For the price, the room was on the smaller side and without a private bathroom (which I knew beforehand). With the windows open there was a lot of noise from the street: traffic and people.

Location - really close to bike trails, hikes and the lake. Also, right in town, so close to great shops, breweries, places to eat and everything that makes Cumberland a little gem! Room - Great size with a really comfy bed. A ceiling fan which was great for the high temps. Mesh over the windows to stop those mosquitoes! Check in - you get a text with a code, which opens the main door and your bedroom door. Absolutely rapid and no need to have someone on the front desk. Facilities - Great common area, and there are multiple individual shower/toilet rooms that were really clean. Parking - loads of free parking on the street outside the hostel Price - without doubt the best price for what you get that I came across in a month on the island.

The Hostel was a great place to stay in Cumberland. Central location - well equipped kitchen - spacious and comfortable common space with great views of the town. We got to see cyclists from every direction. The Hostel is within moments to great cycling trails. Beds are a bit firm - but comfortable. The ceiling fan works quietly and beautifully to cool the room.is Our room was close to the downtown activity - so could get a bit animated with sound from traffic - however - even that became a great part of the experience. The building has been beautifully restored by the current owner Jeremy and its history captured in photographs. Cumberland and the Riding Fool are both gems on the island.

Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you needed. Great room had a pool table, dart board and tons of room for our athletes to eat and play in. Storage room had an area to wax skis and a boot dryer for our wet ski gear, such a bonus! A great facility for our biathlon team to stay! We will be back!

Some said big bedrooms were cold and one said the mattress was a little saggy (mine was perfect firmness).

The Riding Fool, located in an old building, has retained its quaintness and sense of historical charm. The facilities, including the shared kitchen and the bathrooms were immaculate. Our room was extremely comfortable. If we find ourselves in Cumberland again we will definitely stay here!

Really well equipped kitchen, cozy common room with board games and pool table, secure bike storage, right next to the trails and close to the brewery and restaurants.
