Staff and accommodations were wonderful!!
Jodi, 2-night trip

We enjoyed our stay at YHA. The accomodation is conveniently close to everything. We loved that restaurants/cafes/bars and shops were within walking distance.
Tania, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was perfect for our needs. We stayed 2 nights before heading off to our Airbnb. The place was clean, and surprisingly quiet.

Excellent location

Great location and friendly reception. The beds are clean and comfortable although the room is small. No issue if you are out all day and only come back to sleep.

8/10 Very good

Overall was a great stay, washing machine wasn’t working during my stay, at no fault of anyone on staff, and the bathroom outside my room wasn’t the most clean. Staff was friendly and helpful
Eric, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean and fresh. It was above my expectation. Nice friendly staff members. The continental breakfast could be more inviting, very basic.
Ozden, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean accommodation. Not much room for large bags in the room.
Rebecca, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It started with lovely staff member.

Reception staff were nice. Room was clean but dark. On suite bathroom clean. I was reserved a bottom bunk because of disability. I would use again.
Shaun, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I booked it because my flight home was leaving at midnight and I wanted a place to stay until then. As it is a hostel, I wasn't expecting the facilities, but my expectations were overturned, but in a good way. Cleanliness! Bright! Everything is NEW! And, very quiet (as long as the time I stayed there). I had stayed in another hotel for five days that was almost twice the price, and I wished I had stayed here in the first place. Excellent place.
Keiko, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

There were three of us and we stayed in a private room with a private bathroom. There were two bunk beds, no TV, you have to rent the towel and no toiletries. There's hardly any space for our luggage. We have to go to the laundry area in the basement to use our hair dryer-- I was told the power plug in our room bathroom can't handle it. This is a hostel so the lack of space and amenities is understandable. It's pretty close to train stations and a Tesco, some restaurants around the area, but we never tried any. The one elevator broke two days before our check-out. Luckily, we were only on the 2nd floor so, not it wasn't a big deal bringing down our luggage using the stairs. This is our first time in a hostel and although the experience isn't bad at all, I will most likely not book another one.
ROSSANA, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff lovely. Room clean. Bed rock hard and plastic covered so sweaty. Another guest kept waking me up to ask me questions so very short night of little sleep!
Emma, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I only stayed one night to catch a train out of Eustis. Very convenient!
Jolene, 1-night trip

Perfect stay for lone travelers
Lynn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay! Very clean and the staff was helpful.
Julia, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The toilets weren't clean at all. The room smelled and I asked to changed me room without success. The power socket didn't work on my bed. The only good is the location.
Vaios, 2-night trip

Love staying with this brand when traveling with such a large family (6)! It’s easy and affordable!

Barbara, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I stayed in a 4 beds dorm for two nights and I had a group of polite roommates. The staffs in the reception were very polite. This hostel is located not far from Euston station and Oxford circus. Both are walkable. The four-bed dorm has its own bathroom within the dorm which is quite convenient. However, it’s a little bit too warm during summer as no aircon in the building. And there is no locker in the room and no curtain for each bed.
