6/10 Good

It was totally spoilt when a large group of rugby club families arrived and took over the building for 2 of our three nights. Loud shouting until the early hours. Children running around the corridors and in and out the building No YHA staff on duty at night.

We stayed for in this lovely YHA for two nights and wished it was for longer. The staff were so friendly and Gary went out of his way to accommodate us at short notice. The hostel is modern, clean, spacious save very well located. They've done a fabulous job of trying to keep guests safe during COVID. Thank you for all your care. We hope to return again soon!
