Black Rooster Guesthouse - Prince Rupert, British Columbia

paquito06470

A 10-15 minutes a pied du centre ville, l'hostel Le Black Rooster ne rappelle en rien une auberge de jeunesse, si ce n'est les sanitaires partagés par plusieurs chambres. Petites chambres propres avec TV, moquette dans les couloirs et les escaliers, salon agréable en rez-de-chaussée, cuisine correctement équipée. Mais surtout, un accueil discret, mais toujours souriant et efficace (le gérant m'a gardé mon velo et mes bagages pendant 4 jours sans rien me demander, et m'a attendu jusqu'à minuit car mon train avait deux heures et demi de retard). Un climat de calme et de sérénité bien agréable pour des prix très raisonnables

Guesthouse et non hôtel à prix modique : moins de 70 EUR la chambre pour 4, c'est imbattable au Canada !||Proximite avec : 1. Le centre ville 2. Le terminal des ferries.||Laverie et pc avec acces internet en libre acces (free) ||||Chambre tres petite pour 4 personnes ; ok pour une nuit, mais pas plus et il ne faut pas compter monter dans la chambre plus d'une ou deux valises cabines. Lits superposés pour les enfants, sans échelle dans la nôtre. Salle de douche à l'image de la chambe, minuscule.||Mais pour une demie-nuit, quand on se lève à 4h du matin pour prendre le ferry, c'est parfait !||||Un petit parking, plutôt du genre terrain vague pour qualques voitures seulement. Pas d'ascenseur dans l'hôtel.

Stayed twice and both times service was great, easy check in and clear instructions to get to rooms and check in/ out procedures. On one trip the front desk staff stayed later to enable us to check in after hours.

Basic shared kitchen available, we got rooms with private bathrooms both times, well stocked and clean. Rooms were also relatively clean on both trips. Plenty of parking our front and back of the buildings - you could end up in any of 3 adjacent buildings

Prince Rupert has a long standing drinking water crisis - lead and bacteria. Black Rooster did not supply drinking water in the room - it was up to guests to buy their own or use the filtered water downstairs in another building, doubtful it would remove the bacteria in the water supply as it was recommended that all water be boiled for 1 minute. |The accommodation is very basic and expensive |We shared a 2 bedroom apartment and kitchen with another guest, a worker staying in what was more like a board house than a travellers hostel. Kitchen had good pots pans etc but non condiments, not even salt and pepper.

There were dirty underwear and socks in the drawers!!! I would highly recommend to avoid staying here. The overall cleanliness was very poor. |We booked for 5 adults. Even phoned and emailed prior to the time to confirm that we will be 5 adults and that one will be sleeping on the pullout couch, but then were not supplied any linen. Had to call up the attendant in the middle of the night to get more linen. Not enough towels. |The blinds in the living room, where the pullout couch is located, were broken. Only covers half of the window. We had to use a loose blanket to cover up the window. |Parking was very limited. We got off the ferry after midnight, and so I guess we arrive late to get access to parking. |On a positive note, it seems that there was some attempts made to modernize the place, but cleanliness should be a priority.|We ran into the custodian in the morning and brought up the cleanliness and she seemed very dismissive of our concerns. No front desk attendant were available in the morning when we checked out.

Very impressed with this place! The bed was so comfortable, and the room was very clean. Stayed in the 201 building and the kitchen was a shared space, it was very clean and nicely decorated. It really felt like home more than a hotel-which was amazing! 10/10 experience, will definitely be back.

The worst place I have ever stayed in. The smell of the place was terrible and our room smelt of old cooking, cigarettes (the very yellow/orange smoke detector was a dead giveaway) musty and damp all at once. We had to have a window open the entire 4 hellish nights stay. Contractors living upstairs woke us at 5am every morning getting ready for work, so not a peaceful place to stay. If I'd known beforehand I would not pay in advance.

Zimmer war sauber und gross.
Das Bett im 101 machte bei jeder Bewegung so laute Geräusche, sodass man oft verwacht. Allgemein war es sehr laut von den andern Zimmern und der Strasse. Nicht sehr erholsam so.
