2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed 2 nights as a group of 6 in the bunk barn. The room was full of mould. The bunk barn doenst peovide enough space for 6 people and very little space to store belongings. Mould can cause serious risk to health when inhaled and given we had people with asthma in our group its a blessing it didnt cause and harm at this time. The female bathroom was infested in flies. All over the toilet paper and trapped between the sheets of the toilet paper, nevermind the amount in the sink and the amount of dust in the vent would suggest its not been cleaned in years. Whist we didnt expect 5* accomodation in a bunk barn we did expect access to clean and safe accommodation. I feel a refund for our terrible stay here is more than justified.

Drying room

Ideally located, but never been to bunk houses before with such minimal drying facilities- no idea how you would use this place in a typical wet winter- 1 radiator nowhere near hooks and then the radiator was on on for a few hours- given the wet weather that was a problem Other than that pretty good

Shelter from the storm

We booked last minute when the rain started coming down so happy to have a dry comfortable night! Rooms are quite tight but they’re designed for sleep rather than spending time in during the day!

Great Bunkhouse Hostel type accommodation :

Very well located in Great Langdale. Warm place. Very small room, but that was ok & acceptable. Great 2 head showers. Very, very Covid compliant. Especially liked the hand sanitiser OUTSIDE before you use the door key pad. Improvements: Needs separate recycling box(s) and not just 1 rubbish bin. Discussing the booking was hard as I didn't get reply to answerphone messages until several days later. overall Excellent, and thx 4 discount for long term stay.

현관과 방의 코드번호를 메일로 미리 받아 출입하는 방식으로 운영됩니다. 그런데 호텔즈닷컴을 토한 예약에는 코드를 미리 받을 수 없고, 현지는 인터넷, 와이파이가 없어 도착하면 난감한 상황이 됩니다. 이웃의 도움을 얻어야 하는 불편이 있습니다.
