Great location for a short stay. The staff were very friendly and the property was very clean. We would definitely stay again if back in the area.

Somehow YHA ran, at least this summer, a reverse dynamic pricing. We booked early and paid a lot. Same room was 40% cheaper, closer to travel date. Given families are main clients, this is a questiianable strategy.

The location is great. The restaurant is good. A great and special stay on a long hike.

Very noisy fire doors such a shame as the facilities were lovely and so clean just so difficult to open and close them quietly without waking people up.

The location has to be one of the.best. Absolutely stunning and such a lovely walk to Robin Hoods Bay.

The walk back up the hill with our luggage!

This place is incredible! The location speaks for itself, but the staff were all wonderful. My youngest was ill during our stay and the help from the staff made it so much easier for us. Thanks to all of you!

Bar area was full when we wanted to eat, although they did open up the breakfast room for us. Managed to get a seat in the bar later on.

Love the location right on the beach and the staff were so friendly. The bar is really cosy.

Thankyou for an amazing and magical time. It was a brilliant time with everything as a whole. My family and I was very pleased with our stay. It was very relaxing and I loved that it was family safe. Kids could play and meet other children without parents worrying. Fantastic walks, small waterfalls, caves and beach's. We did two of the trails, Robin Hood Bay and Ravenscar. A real adventure and loads of enriching history and made magical by your Boggle hobgoblin.

Breakfast was the only thing that didn't meet expectation. We booked our place for 9am but when we arrived there were no tables free to sit at. We were told we could take our food through to the cafe but this wasn't a great option as it meant taking our plates outside into the cold so we waited for one to become free. There was no one manning the hot counter so we started to help ourselves (presuming this was what we had to do) but were then snapped at by a man who seemed to be a chef and told that he was meant to serve us. Some of the hot food had run out so my daughter had to wait about 10 mins for it to be restocked before she could eat. There were also no croissant etc left and when I enquired if there were any more the male member of staff again looked displeased but then asked if we wanted him to cook more. This obviously took a while so it was nearly 10am before they arrived - fresh and hot but undercooked! There was also no compote left to eat with the yogurt which a couple of members of my family would have liked. The female member of staff was lovely and helpful but most of the time there was no staff member in the dining room so any request couldn't be made without a wait for someone to appear (for example requesting a decaff hot drink as there is no provision for this and it required someone to make one in the bar and then bring it through. It was just a bit of a shame that this all made for a slightly stressed breakfast and because we had to wait around for food we were late going back into our room to collect our bags and our access/room keys had been deactivated! Other than this the food was lovely, cooked well and good quality.

Location and hostel were wonderful. Loved the walk into Robin Hood's Bay. Room was warm and beds comfy. Love the stove roaring away in the cafe bar.
