The property is in the heart of Bath and plenty of amenities and things to do around. Inside it is clean (bathrooms and even kitchen) and pretty secure. However, you may be kept awake by the noise from outside - whether it is the traveler's chatting in the outside garden at 2am or an occasional passing bus. Overall, a good place to stay!

We came to the room we figured out that heating and Wi-Fi are not working in our room(double room, ensute). We spent 2 hours there waiting for heating. (13-14 degrees Celsius inside the room) Receptionist told us that they are fully booked and we have only 2 options, get refund and move to another place or get another blanket as they can do nothing about that. We decided to move out as that was extremely cold inside. We contacted Expedia same day about refund, Expedia could not even call them that day(nobody was replying) Now I got the email that manager refused refund. Unreliable staff They are not picking up the phone Promised to make a refund and rejected to do refund in 2 days when I’m not in the city already Terrible service!!! As a result we got sick and didn’t get a refund…

Very basic but you must keep in mind that this is NOT a hotel, it is a YMCA with a couple of private rooms BUT the location is superb and that is why you are there after all isn’t it.

Really lovely stay
It was me and my friends first time staying in a hostel, the staff were friendly and understanding, the room was clean and we had a lovely view of the courtyard from the window , As it is in the city centre it is a bit noisy however it didn’t effect us sleeping I would definitely reccomend if your looking for a cheeper place to stay for a night or two .

Great location and friendly and very helpful staff. Facilities especially guest kitchen need updating. No fridge available. Rooms weren't properly cleaned (crumbs under bed) and bedding stained. Rooms could do with updating, mattresses terrible and bed shoke every time someone moved in their sleep (we had bunk beds). You get what you pay for I suppose.

A pleasant first experience
We arrived before check in and were happy and fully expecting to put our bags in storage. The gentleman at the front desk was very kind, friendly and helpful. After we used the communal toilets in reception downstairs, which were pretty spacious and very clean, the receptionist had arranged for us to be let in our room early rather than store our bags. He was very informative and maintained a smile throughout which was lovely. Our room was well cleaned, including the en-suite we booked. Although the service, rooms, and cleanliness were brilliant, the walls are thin and so if struggle to sleep, bring earplugs like we did. Overall a really pleasant first experience in a hostel - I’d do it again! Thank you!

The shower was disgusting, there was black mold. The bedspread had blood on it an it was not from me. The beds were so uncomfortable. The breakfast was ok that is offered, the staff was nice. It’s 2.50 for a towel if you don’t have one. There are lots of older folks that stay there.

Great value and a really comfortable night. Booked a family room and found it clean and with easy access to toilets and showers. Arrived very late but staff were on reception to welcome us. Breakfast options were good and the dining room is cheerful and clean. Would definitely stay again.

Good value overall
Room was clean and bright, bed pretty comfy, with small sink and place to hang clothes. Bathroom was accessed on the other side of the stairs. Only one toilet had loo paper in and the floors had urine and water on. The showers were OK, not the best. Staff were largely helpful and welcoming. Good value for money overall.

Not very clean
The bed sheet is not very clean. I feel itchy in bed. They did not even empty the bin in the bathroom of the en suite. The rubbish from the previous traveler was still there!

Room was fine and value for money. Excellent location. No towels in room, even though we asked for some. Broken locks on toilet door. Corridors etc need new carpets and a lick of paint but apart from that, it was a good stay.
