Very clean facility, with a well stocked kitchen in an excellent setting. Plenty of car parking. Each bed (private quad room) had its own reading light, power socket and USB ports to charge your devices. Beds were comfortable. Toilets and shower rooms were clean and the lounge was big and tidy too. Friendly staff as well. Overall great value.
Water pressure was quite low, to the extent that we never managed to get warm water in the sink in the room. The shower was really low on pressure too, but water was nice and warm. Lounge could do with more things to do, maybe like other YHAs nearby, like Ranger. The quad room was a little on the smaller side, unlike other YHAs I've stayed at.

Customer service, friendly people ( at the hostel and in town), localisation ( beautiful views) access to the kitchen ( self catering)
Poor wi-fi ( internet access is useful for re-search when your not local) , two outside lodges need better heating ( on a rainy day it wasn't cold, but it wasn't warm enough either). Also I think it would be safer to have an all night reception for safety reasons

I hadn't stated in a YHA hostel for over 30 years, so was somewhat apprehensive. However, the organisation has been modernised and the hostel experience is now less spartan and more relaxed and laid back. The manager, Mike and his team were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Location was superb and the hostel itself was comfortable and warm. Breakfast options were good, cooked breakfasts included vegetarian options. The continental buffet breakfast was very good for the price and non-dairy 'milk' was available, which was a pleasant surprise when even most hotels still have to catch up in this respect. Also a good choice of wine and beer, including local artesan beers were available on site. How the YHA has changed for the better since my youth!! All in all, a pleasant and enjoyable stay
My one and only criticism is the lack of a mirror for shaving in my room.

The facility here is better maintained than the YHA in Bristol, at least no handle drops off this time.
The perfume is too strong in the corridor.

The breakfast was a treat and the staff were helpful and friendly. The location is a must-choose.
1. The water temperature.
When our family stumbled our way back to the hostel from a long mountain hike through wind and rain, we were delighted to have a place where we can shower and then sleep. Unfortunately, the only temperature of our hot water was absolute coldness. Improvement of the boiler would be great.
2. Loud sounds in the middle of the night.
It was two in the morning. We were fast asleep, and- we woke up to a very loud tap from next door, who came back from their hike started at eight in the evening. The racket was probably due to the walls, which are not soundproof at all, and because the bedroom sinks are connected to the same drainage pipe. A reinforced wall and separation of the sinks would be helpful to future travelers.
3. The metal bunk beds need some further protection.
My son accidentally smashed his head twice from the bottom bed onto the railing supporting the top bed edge. He found it, unsurprisingly, painful. It is a bunk bed, so it is very easy to hit your head on top, especially someone who doesn’t usually sleep on bunk beds. Some protection as a substitute to pure steel would be much appreciated.
