Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Wanderlust is a great hostel. It's always clean and comfortable. The staff is welcoming and professional. I stay here while visiting my son and daughter in law in Gunnison and it has never failed to impress. It's a great value amongst the overpriced hotels/motels in the area. Wanderlust rocks!!

    I liked private room. Hostel was close to the Outrider bus stop, and the Crested Butte bus stops. The staff were amazing. I was able to arrange a ride to Hartman Rocks, on short notice. Mickelle was able to pick me up at short notice. Very pleasant atmosphere. Nice kitchen. Thorough cleaning was completed daily.

    I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the Wanderlust Hostel accommodations were, the friendliness of the other guests, and the hospitality of Amy, the hostel hostess. Amy allowed me to use one of the hostel bikes to explore the river trails and the town of Gunnison. Amy was also helpful in quickly familiarizing myself with the local area. I also like the book collection available from which guests can peruse topics of interest.

    Excellent vibe in hostel. (Credit due to the all-female owner and staff). Comfortable living room and back deck areas for hanging out. Fast Wi-Fi. Linens and free towels. Lots of storage space for guest food. Very well equipped kitchen. Good location - easy walking distance to Safeway and other stores. Plenty of bathrooms. Soap provided.

    The property was clean, cheerful, and the staff was super friendly. I was honestly a little nervous about staying in a hostel but Wanderlust Hostel blew my expectations out of the water in every positive way.
