Sin City Hostel

Life saving stop on my road trip. Rooms are clean and have a/​c. The man at the reception is welcoming and helpful. Possibility to park the car securely at night. Nice common room with breakfast. Lots of tips to go out and even some organized club crawl in the weekend (I haven’t tried them). Last but not least, I was able to use a washing machine and a drier for 3 $, and was even given the detergent and the change! All of this for 17 $ a night.

It’s Vegas, so this isn’t the place most people are going to stay at unless they are just traveling through or trying to stay as cheap as possible. The first time I stayed here it was my first time in Vegas and I just needed a place for one night until another room I got kicked in. The other two times were just to get drunk while traveling through to other places. Overall you’ll get what you pay for, that’s all you can really ask. Service is exceptional and they keep as clean as they can I suppose… It’s a hostel in Vegas.

2 great nights I had there ! Awesome staff and activities. Felt like home with the xbox 360 and a bit of french in the place ! Thanks

Good staff. Calm atmosphere. Good for day, good for night. Great ChrisWich sandwiches.

I picked the Sin City hostel after hearing great things from someone I met in Denver and someone I met in New Orleans. I stayed for two weeks and I LOVED it.
Checking in was easy, I got a tour and a towel! A free and yummy breakfast is provided every morning. There were even a couple of BBQs!
Finding friends to hang out with was easy, which was great because I was traveling alone. Not only that, the staff are a bunch of really cool people and they would come and hang and chat, too. It really started to feel like a vaca fam. I had an absolute blast!
There are a few restaurants around, a gas station and walgreens a block or two away. I like to walk a lot so I walked to the strip almost every day. The bus picks up and drops off close to the hostel as well.
I will definitely be back. I tell everyone about this place. I made great memories and lifetime friends.

Love love love this place! Sin City Hostel is very cooool. And for the single wanderluster its lotsa fun! Hope to come back in in the fall or holiday season! Gotta partake in the Limo ride at my next visit!
Thank you Sin City Hostel Staff! Cant wait to blog on this!!!

I really hate writing bad reviews but we’ve stayed in quite a few hostels and this was definitely not one of the memorable ones. We booked a private room (don’t want to think about what a shared room would be like). The room reeked of gasoline, the window was broken, we found hairs and stains in the sheets and the blankets were mouldy. We shared our bathroom with a super sweet young woman. The bathroom was clean, shower was fine. Bring your own towel, they don’t provide you with anything. We were in the kitchen once, never went back and skipped the hostel breakfast, because the atmosphere in the common room was super weird and the kitchen was filthy. Staff is okay, pretty friendly. Miguel (the owner?) is a nice guy. The location is by the Charleston bus stop, takes you about 20 minutes to get to The Venetian on Deuce (24 hour ticket for $ 8 on a surprisingly nice bus). Neighborhood is sketchy. For a weekend and the very low price, the place was borderline. I would recommend you check last-​minute deals in Bally’s or the Mirage instead of staying here (we had friends who did that and payed the same amount we did for a lovely room right downtown on the strip). We won’t be going back to Sin City. Sorry for the bad review but I have to be honest…

if you’re traveling solo, don’t even bother. If you’re choosing to share rooms with strangers which I did, you just might be kept awake by others socializing… my experiences at this place were varied, but that wasn’t the only problem. Shared bathroom /​shower, sharing rooms with STRANGERS, mild odor in the room… hostels aren’t for me. So I won’t be staying in one ever again. This is not to say you wouldn’t like staying at a hostel, maybe even this one.
despite the very low price and free breakfast (less than $ 20 /​night), I’ll warn you that you do get what you pay for.

For $ 13 a night per person, my friend and I saved a lot of money. We met some really cool people from Europe. It’s a nice hostel, free breakfast (they have Nuttela!) and bathroom in the room instead of a community bathroom. There isn’t much to see on the wall to the strip, so it’s worth a cheap taxi fare.

I stayed in this hostel over the week end to ditch the huge price hikes that happen at all the hotels around town on Friday and Saturday. Wow, way to much fun. Larry was friendly, and had an awesome limo tour, with free liquor before and in the limo to the club. He was very warm and delightfully humorous. The rooms are simple, but very clean. The cleaning crew scrubbed every day. I tried hostel cat before, and there rooms were a complete disaster. Sin City Hostel is a Million times better in cleanliness and keeping riff raff (Aka drug folks) out. I would advise you to upgrade to a 4 bed dorm vs a 6 bed dorm. The bunk beds just arn’t made for a full grown man of 180lbs to sleep on, but the memory foam in the 4 bed dorms is like sleeping on a cloud. I highly recommend this place if your looking to have fun on the cheap in Vegas.

Sin City was surprisingly one of the best hosteling experiences that I’ve ever had. Please tell me if you can find a much cheaper hostel anywhere in the entire USA. The staff are down to earth and friendly. Last night Johnny from Sin City organized a club crawl and brought us out to treasure island and the fancy place across the street. We were a group of a couple Americans along with a dozen German travelers. That night we landed at a secret LMFAO show, which blew my mind. The go go girls were hot and the midget at the show had at least 6 costume changes. That’s the way to throw a secret party. I love the fact that this hostel hits the clubs as a worldwide group. There’s probably more of a true international feel here versus the Cat Hostel. The reason is that Sin City receives far more international travelers, due to the preference this hostel gives to passport carrying party pilgrims. The hostel is close to the strip, maybe a 20 minute walk. The owner is a great guy who will chat on a deeper than the normal about politics. He was generous enough to let me stay for hours after check out, as I was leaving Vegas later that night. I rate it 5 poker chips.

The Sin City Hostel in Las Vegas is a great choice if you wanna have a cheap stay.
We stayed here in July 2012.
The facilities are all clean and the staff is great.
They also have great offers, for example a limo tour including access to a night club.
That was a great night.
They also get cheaper offers for Grand Canyon Tours.
Breakfast is a typical Hostel breakfast with toast, waffles and coffee and Ice Tea.
I would say it is a typical Hostel with great prices.
BUT you have to know that the privates share a bathroom with the dorm rooms and they have to go through the dorm rooms to leave their room.
We would stay here again!

This place is fantastic. The beds are reasonably priced and it’s located just off the strip. You are walking distance or a short bus ride from everything. If you go make sure to check out some of the hostel’s events. I recommend the Friday night limo tour. When we went it was 25 dollars for the ride admission to the club and free drinks in the limo.
The mattresses are foam, yes, but it’s pretty firm and a foot thick. The common areas have plenty of space and a pool table. What really sells this place over any of the others is the staff. Genuinely warm and inviting they really go the extra mile for you. I am a vegetarian and for whatever reason Las Vegas is not particularly friendly to us for whatever reason. During the (Free) Friday night BBQ they offered to pick up garden burgers for me. Awesome. My friend didn’t have the required shoes for the nightclub on Saturday; it was cool he borrowed a pair. They were all very knowledgeable about the surrounding area, restaurants, pools, bars, clubs, casinos. They can help you out.
Oh, and as a bonus across the street is a themed wedding chapel. While I was there I saw more than 15 happy couples march out with an Elvis clad in gold lame.

I’ve stayed in a number of hostels from the south west, to montreal, to nyc. This is the worst hostel I’ve ever been to and the only one that I had to cancel my reservation and walk out after one night. Yeah the price is right, and its on the strip not too far from the first big casino but it’s not worth it. The «private» room I booked with my girlfriend at the time was located behind the large room of multiple bunk beds. I had to bring my luggage through the room and tip toe past sleeping guests to get to my room. Even though the room was private the bathroom was shared which was another unexpected surprise. The worst part of the whole experience was the room had a bed that felt more like a piece of plywood with a pad on top, the blanket was a thick piece of wool with tons of animal (and probably people) hair stuck in it. This place was pretty gross and uncomfortable. Check out somewhere else or just don’t skimp on hostels when you’re in Vegas is my advice.
