Staff friendly and helpful. Building well maintained. Games room week stocked cost 50 pence for pool and fussball. Food was good price and kids under 10 ate free with a paying adult. Breakfast good though the coffee was undrinkable sachets (please get proper coffee as it let's breakfast down). Beds comfy but some pillows flat and hard and some beds so squeaky that kept others awake in room. Room 32 lower bunk on left was terrible. Overall pleasant stay. Kitchen with fridge and freezer great!
Great YHA in a good location - staff excellent and nice and clean. A star less as the kitchen was a bit low on equipment amd could be better. I do worry that YHA is getting too hotel like and expensive though....
