Youth Hostelling...wah!!!


The decision to stay at the Youth Hostel was a straight forward one. The reasons a) Advised to do so by Jessica b) Cheapest 3) Sounds fun 4) Cheapest 5) Cheapest

The men were clear on this, the women were iffy - at the end they also stayed here. It had the nice traveller feel to it. No nonsense. You check in - given a card key with a bed reference and a locker, a travel pass, a fresh bed sheet and pillow cover and a breakfast token. The dorms, we were in a 10 berth one, are full of bunk beds - Koreans, japsm Czechs..we met them all....and you do not need a common language to get across. All enthu people - the czech had hiked across Europe!! Great fun. The loos were clean with hot showers. Great value for Pound

Breakfast was hearty - muesli, yogurt- plain and flavoured, milk, bread ( as much), butter, jam., hot milk, tea/ coffee/ chocolate ( as much )....and all included in the fare!! Hogged well on both the days.

yes, Hostellling - I like you... you are fun, and great value too!! Highly recommended. Caution: use your locker and do not tempt the devil.
