Few days away with family (15 of us). Area/location is very nice. Well stocked kitchen and bedrooms are nice and plenty of space. Couple of the rooms were super hot for some reason. Nice place for a large family:group break.

Our private family ensuite room was spacious and comfortable. The bed was cosy. We had free reign over the communal living room and kitchen that had everything we needed. …

Great hostel. Really enjoyed my stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hostel was clean and tidy. I cooked my own food. The kitchen was well equipped. The dining and social areas are good. The hostel is very close to the town centre. Parking could be an issue.

Great location to all amenities but walls seemed thin. Guests were noisy. Doors needed slamming shut for some reason. Guests who had en suite rooms tended to use the dorms' toilet and shower. Only two plug sockets in the room and both were by one bed. Guests felt the need to move my food around the fridge. Staff were friendly and offered advise on what to do in the area based on their own experience which was great.

Absolutely great service. All you need in a hostel. Perfect location as it's close to town, with a pub, Chinese and Kebab shop and a LIDL, all within a 5 minute walking distance. The Harbour with a wonderful view, literally next to a restaurant, right round the corner. Rooms are fitted with en suite toilet/shower and a rather quaint lounge & reasonably sized dining area. Comfortable sized kitchen with all types of utilities and utensils. There are toilets and showers down the main corridor also. Overall, a great place to stay if you're in town for a few days.

First visit to a Youth Hostel for 30 years and were so happy with our stay. The staff were also welcoming, friendly and helpful, and the hostel itself beautifully kept. Lovely location, right on the river.||We will definitely stay again and recommend this hostel in particular to anyone of any age!

Made use of the shared dorm. Use of TV lounge, diner and separate kitchen with good range of equipment. Clean, staff helpful and great location for town centre, public transport and harbour. Close to eateries, food stores, etc and some overnight free parking. 3rd time I've stopped here.
