Fabulous place to stay, warm and welcoming. My private room was great value for money and very comfortable. Appreciated the hospitality with free coffee, tea and breakfast items and the staff were lovely 😊 it’s an old building with a quirky charm and sitting under the white cliffs on the outside terrace was magical.

Het was een erg trieste plek dit hostel. Er is wel een sociale controle waardoor het niet geheel onveilig voelde. Maar de mensen die 'werkte' en betrokken waren bij het beheren van het hostel waren erg minimaal geregeld. Het was geen comfortabele plek, de faciliteiten waren niet schoon, de bedden en slaap ruimte waren niet prettig.
