A quick Google search shows Hostel Fish, Mile High House, and AAE 11th Avenue Hostel. You can do the search yourself and read the reviews and rates.

Denver isn't really a big "hostel" city, in that previous ones have been in rough areas and somewhat sketchy. Not really sure the clientele that frequents them now; whether it's rougher, transient "travelers", versus regular backpacker types exploring a city and looking to meet like minded friends.

The 11th Avenue one is between two busy and noisy streets, with multiple rowdy clubs nearby. HostelFish is also in a neighborhood that gets crazy on weekends, (loud drunk bros and messy girls), but if you're out and about on the town by night not a big deal - just have street smarts and avoid them.

Just a consideration: For the price they're charging ($30 and $60), you could get a private room on AirBnB, which are generally in more quieter (but still very central) neighborhoods like Capitol Hill or Uptown, have a far more secure setting, and still give you a social setting, albeit as a houseguest versus dorm setting.

If anything just have a couple AirBnbs or cheap hotel in mind as backup in case you arrive and don't care for the crowd or setting.

or... use international Guest homes Free to $20 / night WW. Been hosting and staying for 30 yrs, over 100 stays in 2016 alone.
