Really lovely hostel beautifully designed and very practical. The shared shower room was very clean and with helpful hints posted within as well as washable face cloths instead of disposable. The bed was very comfortable but the stand out aspect of my stay was Will the manager who couldn't have been more helpful. I arrived a day later than planned due to a car accident and Will couldn't have been more helpful. The hostel shares space with the Flying Squirrel next door owned by the same people I ahd delicious food and drinks there also ver stylish and with good service. Would definetely recommend a stay here, also great restaurants and a dog park within minutes walk. I should also add the grounds are lovely with a fire pit, barbeque and interesting planting. Brilliant for either a solo traveller or groups/couples.

The private room was lovely. If a little cold due to air con. But you can always get more blankets. Bed super comfy. The location was the key though, the bar next door is awesome for food and drink and alot of the cool pubs and bars are within a 5 minute walk!

When I went it was a little quiet so the social side wasn't amazing, but as I say, I went out of peak times so not surprising.

This place is awesome. I didn't know anything about Chattanooga, but the location was super convenient to nightlife and felt like a safe area. The staff were helpful with me when my check-in was getting close to being late due to traffic. The facilities are nice and clean and feel secure with locks on all the doors. The bed is about what you'd expect out of a hostel (locker, lamp, black out curtains) which is exactly what I was looking for.

The price was a little more than I expected, but I think that's just perspective. I've stayed in hostels abroad that cost less, but the price makes sense for a big city in America. Definitely more affordable than a hotel room and Crash Pad is a great place overall.

This was an absolutely great hostel, it had all the basic amenities but a tonne of extras that made the stay exceptional. Having stayed in a million hostels in Europe I was very surprised to find such a good example in the US.

Great cozy hostel, nice outdoor setting, fully equipped kitchen. Was pretty empty when we went but I'm sure it's even nicer with people around!

A light for the upper bed in the Queen room would be great!

Very comfortable bed, easy in and out, nice common area for chatting with others, good coffee in the kitchen. I'll definitely stay there again.

It would be nice to know up front where to park the car. It's a busy area.
