Very nice place! A bit far from the bus station when coming as a backpacker. The private room for two was really small and rather expensive ( 100 £ without breakfast) but the location and the common rooms are nice and comfortable. I would have really appreciated a real coffee for breakfast and not the instant one ☕️.I think a coffee machine would be a good investment 😀

The layout of the building was very interesting. It did not seem like one room after another, the rooms were well separated for more quiet.

For the price, £67, this is poor value, why do YHA think it not appropriate to supply towels, very outdated approach

Peaceful hostel in a nice old building around 20 minutes walk from the town centre. Clean and quiet. Check in times are a little restrictive and late check in is not possible.

Excellent location. Friendly staff. Generally clean and comfortable. Un able to use showers before 7am which was inconvenient as we were catching the early ferry. Large groups and staff shortages prevented the normal menu being offered.

Very lovely hostile for a family stay. Our private room for six was large and had seating and a washing up basin. Shared toilets and showers were clean and close to the room. Community kitchen was very busy and dining was crowded...we were there during peak season. This is probably better off peak. No close by amenities such as grocery, so expect a walk or drive to the store.

Lovely YHA hostel situated in the middle of a lovely nature surrounding as well as a good location to visit other Cornwall attractions. The only negative comment was from my teenaged kids regarding the internet being slow and mostly cutting out. Otherwise everything else was top notch.
