The hostel is
located in one of the historic homes built sometime between 1899 and
1901. It appears on the tax rolls in 1901 as a completed structure.
Ask about its history and previous owners. It is located at 456 Third
Avenue, which is just over a block from the historic district. The
ferry terminal is about a ten minute walk, the airport terminal is
less. Most buses will drop you at the door and the major bus company
stops at a hotel two blocks away. We have a comfortable commons area,
kitchen and laundry facilities. Fluent trail hiker is spoken here and
the latest information on Chilkoot trail conditions is available.
