Zenith Basecamp is a unique accommodation and a model that I hope catches on. On site, they refer to it as a glamping hostel. The space is impeccable, set up in a newly renovated historic office building. There’s no frills (bring your own shampoo, soap, and towel), but what’s there is great. You get your own room, with shared individual bathrooms and a kitchenette available for guest use. We also enjoyed the cocktail bar on site!

Virtual staff was super helpful and pretty responsive to all my questions and concerns. A lot to do in the area and less than a 20 minute drive anywhere. Only thing is if you’re a light sleeper bring an eye masks, ear plugs and your own blanket. Love the natural lighting the rooms get but if you’re wanting to sleep in there aren’t any black out curtains and walls are very thin, you can hear everything and the blankets that are provided are pretty itchy and thin. Other than those three things I would definitely stay here again.

Simple, clean accommodations that provide all you need (bed, bathroom) for a stay. Note that the semi-permeable walls (about a foot worth at the very top) allow light and sound in, so you may want to pack an eye mask and earplugs to help ensure a good night’s sleep. Our neighbors’ light was on most or all of the night, which I hadn’t anticipated keeping me up. It was quiet at night but we woke in the morning to people talking right outside our room in the common area; not Zenith’s fault, since it happened during their designated quiet hours, but I might not recommend the risk for very light sleepers. Overall this place is well-located, clean and straightforward. And I appreciate that more affordable hostel options like this exist! Thanks for a great stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. It would be nicer if they had small garbage cans in our bedroom instead of having to go to the small kitchen or the bathroom every time. Also they should provide at least coffee in the morning. It doesn't have a hostel vibe, there's no intercultural exchange but the place is clean and very comfortable. No parking available right at the building but across the street.

Clean and comfortable place to stay, much nicer than anticipated. One surprise: the top slats of the room walls are offset (probably for airflow) which means that you hear every sound. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Not being able to open the window was a little frustrating but for the price I can’t complain too much. The place was clean, felt safe, there was reserved parking with our room and spacious bathrooms.

Walls are basically curtains. Weird offset slats on the tops of the walls by the room so you can see light from the other rooms and hear EVERYTHING. Hearing the person in the next room toss and turn in bed. Some degenerate left baby batter in one of the toilets.

Simple and clean with a microwave to enable us to heat up leftovers in the glass bowls we brought along. Tableware suited us fine, including the hard plastic dishes and bowls - we just don’t put plastic in a microwave, (maybe some types are ok - we just avoid it). Mattress was a bit too soft to our liking, but it was ok. Not being tech-savvy and skittish about downloading another app so we could use our phones as our “room key,” we appreciated Joe’s helpfulness and the option to obtain a physical key card. We brought everything else we needed, as recommended.
