Needs a few more basic tgings

Basic but good value for a stay at the coast. Needs more hooks and shelves to make it easier. Good kitchen facilities. Could have breakfast and a drink. Parking was easy. Bike shed available. Warm enough and bed was comfortable. Great location for walking into town.

I had thought that hostelling was just for young people and still think it is an excellent way for them to experience the world cheaply. However, I am delighted to inform people that in an era when B&Bs have grenerally become too expensive boutiques, the hostelling option is a very worthwhile option and this hostel is excellent - very friendly and helpful staff, very clean and cheap and with great countryside nearby for walking and visiting.

Great location - 2mins from town! Stayed there few times, but looking a litle "tired" now...ie the downstairs wet room needs a DEEP clean - it is clean but stained. And the downstarirs bedroom windows might have some of that sticky stuff put over the glass (at least half way up) so people don't get a fright when the seem me in my boxers!

stolen beer

check in was very slow and stressful they could not find my booking i thought we were going to have to find another place to stay. We bought some provisions for making tea and breakfast along with some beer to chill for the beach the following day, but on going to the fridge we found the beer stolen would never use a YHA again

The building and the area outside need a significant upgrade. It is shabby and tired.The hostel was stuffy with a smell of stale perspiration and sweaty feet. I had to book a twin room as no singles were available and paid £90 for the privilege. Light over the mirror didn't work and I expected an ensuite bathroom. Found it excessively expensive for such basic accommodation and couldn't park in the car park which was completely full.

No flexibility

The hostel itself was clean and my room was comfortable, however....I feel that the hostel could have been more accommodating to me and my friends request. I understand that the people that work there are volunteers, but we had a situation in which we needed just a little flexibility. We were due to attend a wedding, travelling from the south-coast that morning. The wedding was due to start at 2pm, but we couldn't check in until 5pm. We had no where to leave our bags, to get ready. Our request was that we would be able to use just one room or the bathroom to get ready and have somewhere to leave our belongings, and if possible check in early...these requests were declined. Instead we had to get ready in a car park, attend the wedding and then leave to check in later that afternoon and return to the wedding. This made our day much more stressful than it should have been.

Great facilities, just need to buy better mattress

All the facilities you need to cook, wash and relax. Very comfy sofas in the lounge. Plenty of parking and the location is great for the town and beach. Helpful, friendly staff. What let it down was the bed. The mattress was far too thin. I could feel the bed frame so didn't sleep well. Maybe fine for a small child, but not great for an adult.
