    Room and bathrooms were very clean. Nice property with a great outdoor focus. Only concern was the key entry system to the outside doors was very picky. Recommend to stay again.

    It was very different from any place ive ever stayed. You dont see any staff unless you go into the shop or bar. But it says its a glamping experience which is totally true in the sense of no staff and the walls are paper thin. It was a cool place but due to tge thin walls I heard to many unpleasant things I will not stay there again!

    Passable

    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!

    Pleasantly surprised! Highly recommend this place!

    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.

    Best hostel I’ve ever stayed in.

    Very good

    Perfect for our crew of Scouts evacuated from Northern Tier due to wildfires.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Amazing place to stay! The shared spaces are super nice and just what you need. Very clean and spacious rooms. Lovely offerings before check-in (pre-order beer and snacks in room) and great offerings for tours etc! Check those out when you book!

    I like Nothing My reservation was canceled by Zenith basecomp. I had no room to stay in that night

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    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.

    Reminds me of some of the best hostels I stayed in while traveling in Europe. Super clean, very modern, and a great vibe. Joe was there when we checked in, and was super helpful in helping us get settled. Great retail store below, and a cool looking bar as well (window-shopped the store, didn’t hit the bar). It is a hostel, so be prepared for shared bathrooms, etc., but we expected that and it was all in all a great stay. Will totally stay there again!

    Could hear the neighbors a bit to much while in our own room

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Clean, convenient, calm location, good value. Could hear the neighbors a bit to much while in our own room

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I liked that I had thoughtfully charged my phone prior to arrival and that I had accidentally brought my own towel. Paper thin walls with no posted warnings or quiet time made for a terrible stay. Never again. For others, you might rethink the contradiction of “nature feeds my soul” aesthetic with “take your phone everywhere.” Thanks for employing no one!

    Was an awesome place to stay. The staff was extremely helpful, loved the Altitude lounge as well. Met so many friendly people!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I didn't realize it was not like a regular hotel. The room had a bed a cooler and a chair. The restroom and showers were communal. The walls were thin and you could hear everything like coughing in the adjacent rooms.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    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.
