This is an alright place, you get what you pay for. The free toast and fruit in the morning is a nice touch, but this place needs some serious money spent on it. The bathrooms and kitchens are all broken, cracked and a bit grubby. We only stayed for a night, probably long enough...

I stayed in a single en suite room which was located in a separate building. Unfortunately there were also 2 large DOGS at this location and I was afraid to leave my room.

Hi Anush I am sorry the Great Danes were intimidating. We have introduced a system whereby we ask clients first if they mind dogs before letting them stay in the guesthouse side of the lodge - you should have approached us on reception and brought it under our attention so that you could have been given another room

Can't recommend. Much better hostels in the Hatfield area. Found the place rather dark and dreary.

Ray - you stayed 7 nights in a big dorm with free breakfast and free wi-fi for 12 US $ per night - couldn't have been that bad. You were welcome to bring your concern to me @ reception and we would have gladly offer you an alternative room
