A delightful cheery greeting on arrival. The hostel is clean and well looked after and every thing you would expect of a youth hostel. En-suite rooms are small but comfortable. Provides a welcome nights rest.

Clean friendly staff

First it was tricky to find the reception as the parking at the back and there is a walk to the front. Probably some small arrow signs helps. Everything was clean. Quiet at night. Just all good for a transit trip.

I was unlucky that a noisy customer joined the same shared room. However, that was not the YHA's failure. Overall, everything was great, given the expense. Quiet, clean, and easy-going.

Good stay

Was surprised how accessible the accessible room was. Car park not good for wheelchair users no accessible parking. Also theres a long oush to the entrance good path but if its raining you will get bit wet before you can see the entrance which is step free.Wet room very good. Also the single bed and bunk beds were comfy, however it was difficult to close the room door as it opened out. Good ramp access even when there's steps. Staff are very helpful. There was only one room we couldn't use due to steps was the lounge.
