Rebecca (10/5): - Great, we had our own room as there were 3 of us. Good kitchen nice big common area and comfy couches. Drying room was handy too.
Hansen (10/5): -
Annemariek (10/5): Calm, social and welcoming place - This place has the most warm and welcoming feel and Sian was the best host I could have wished for. Blew my mind to see how she handled checking in so many people every day and being so super kind and social with every one, helping them with all their daily business. Would highly recommend and I will definitely return someday :) -
Murphy (8/5): - The dining room & sitting area fabulous Bedroom a bit tight for space No tea or coffee on arrival
Kateřina (9/5): -
Rob (10/5): I'll be back - This was my 1st ever experience of a Youth Hostel @ 68 years of age and I would certainly recommend this particular Hostel to anyone I am returning next month and really looking forward to it N/A

Colin (6/5): - The staff were helpful and friendly N/A
Maite (7/5): - Sehr sauber, nettes Personal, alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Gemütliche Sitzecke Betten etwas klapprig, aber das ist wohl normal, wenn man in einem Hostel mit Hochbetten schläft. USB- Anschlüsse zum Laden der elektr. Geräte hat nicht funktioniert.

nick (8/5): - Location easy return via train. Beds have an annoying shelf on the headboard watch out else you will crack your head in it in the night. Slept down the feet end to avoid it.

Toni (8/5): very good generally - Excellent staff, very helpful, went above and beyond to assist us, coming out to find us on the road in. We were late arriving and the warden called us to check on us. She also helped provide us with food as we were too late for local restaurants. The next day the warden kindly let us store bags in the hostel while we went out to get breakfast. Plenty of hot water and clean showers. Kitchen furnishings were rather old and tired, marked worktops. One oven barely heated.
Marius (7/5): -
elilmbt (10/5): Great stay - Great hostel, comfy common areas, lots of amenities. Great room, quite large, lots of room for everyone's luggage. Comfy bed. Nice pub less than a ten minute walk away for dinner ! There's also lots of great things to see less than an hour driver away from the hostel to see, walks, hikes etc. Nice location.
Warren (8/5): A fair way away from WHW. - Wonderful staff. Pub and shop close by. Hostel is what you’d expect. They lied about the location. WHW. It is not 15 minutes from the kissing gate but 25. All down hill so a hard slog in the morning. At least tell us the truth. Also washing machines weren’t available.
Stephanie (6/5): Sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Gutes Frühstück. Sauber. - Sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Es war sauber und ruhig in der Nacht. Das Frühstück war gut, richtiges Müsli, Haferflocken, Joghurt, Obst. Die extrem dicken Bettdecken. Das Notausgangslicht im Zimmer, wodurch es nachts nicht richtig dunkel war im Zimmer.
Daniel (3/5): - There wasn't any hot water to have a shower when you been wild camping for 7 days you need a shower that's why we booked this hostel,wasn't impressed with no hot water at all
Halley (8/5): Cute and cozy place with wonderful staff - Super wonderful staff, cozy and cute hostel, nice vibe Very loud other guests dominating the communal areas
emilie (7/5): Agréable - Le staff est très sympathique. L'ambiance est chaleureuse. Le petite déjeuner très bien. Bon emplacement près de la gare Un peu de bruit
Jeremy (5/5): Overall the stay was ok. - The facilities were adequate for our needs for a single night stay. However, we did remark that the property is dated & would benefit from refurbishment. When in the dormitory room there was a lot extraneous noise coming from elsewhere in the hostel & every time a person walked past the door it sounded like they were entering the room.
Louise (7/5): Cheap and cheerful - Friendly and good value Noisy Showers and toilets could have been cleaner
Nigel (7/5): -
Susanna (8/5): -
Emmanuel (7/5): Bien - Très correct pour une auberge de jeunesse
Mira (6/5): - Hostelli on melko vanha, mutta aivan siisti. 3-henkinen seurueemme majoittui ohikulkumatkalla ja sai ostettua aamiaisen paikanpäällä.
Jenny (9/5): A very friendly comfortable and spacious hostel. - I was very relieved to find that there was not a single dog in sight but just a large group of students - the latter I expected but I was shocked to find there may be dogs about. a terrific welcome by the receptionist and lovely relaxed atmosphere in the kitchen which was very well stocked. Clean, comfortable and perfect location - would love to have time to walk from the hostel. Given that there were no dogs I have no criticism - but as I really do not relax around dogs, I would never have booked the place had I known upon booking - so I feel this should have been clearer in the beginning part of the booking process. It popped up much later. I could have cancelled at that point but chose not too and so very glad I did not because the location was perfect for our journey.
Kumar (9/5): - Everything Nothing
Angelika (9/5): - Nice fully stacked kitchen, nice area with couches to hang out. Free tea and coffee. Rooms a nice and spacious. There is a little supermarket around the corner. Staff is nice and helpful
Niall (10/5): Excellent youth hostel. - Good showers, good facilities for cooking, shed for storage of bikes, nice communal area to dine in. Woken up during night by inconsiderate noisy backpackers slamming doors at 2-3am. Should also mention the green light on 24hrs in our room, this could have been dimmer but still functional. Obviously there to illuminate fire exit but too bright.
Marco (10/5): - Cucina pulita e ben dotata, letto comodo Nulla

Victoria (8/5): -
Jonne (8/5): -
Kamila (9/5): - Super location, most wonderful staff running the place Wifi weaker in more distant corner of the hostel
Flower (8/5): It was a stop over. - Crianlarich is a kind of cross road type of location. Yha is perfectly good, but little else in the small town. But on main rail and road network. Nothing really.
Alina (9/5): -
Constanze (10/5): -
Joy (8/5): - A little noisy and the bed wasn’t great but it was clean and safe
1damien (8/5): -
Mark (8/5): - Great countryside location and friendly staff.
Laura (9/5): -
Corinne (8/5): Une bonne nuit au calme - Arrivée tardive après une grosse journée de randonnée sur le WHW sous la pluie et l accueil ÉTAIT SUPER . J ai pu laver mon linge et repartir au top le lendemain. Propreté dans les sanitaires
Lyubava_Karelina (7/5): -
Weronika (10/5): Comfortable stay in a great location. - Staff very friendly, room comfortable, bathrooms super clean, parking on property and a nice breakfast available with both sweet and savory options. There is a grocery store within a short walking distance (3 minutes) Everything was excellent
Wendy (10/5): -
Alessandro (7/5): -
Carole (9/5): Logement comfortable avec un bon qualité-prix - Auberge calme avec des chambres familiales. Les douches étaient propres, et le petit déjeuner offert bien fourni. La chambre manquait de prises (une prise a côté du lit et une à cote du lavabo pour 4 couchages)
Hana (7/5): Za tu cenu OK - Moc milý personál. Úklid by mohl být o dost lepší, nečistoty na podlahách, celkově vypadalo všude ušmudlaně. Sprchy postrádaly dostatek prostoru na oblečení a převlečení.
Madeleine (8/5): -
Sam (10/5): Loved Crianlarich, a beautiful location, perfect for an overnight en route to our destination : ) - The room was clean and we were able to easily prepare our own meals and have everything we needed to do this.
Adrian (5/5): Too noisey. - Good location, good facilities. Stay ruined by noisy guests.
Petra (6/5): - Freundliches Personal Man musste sein Frühstücksgeschirr selbst abspülen. Es wurde weder Abendessen noch Lunchpaket angeboten. In der Nacht ging mehrmals (zum Glück) grundlos der Feueralarm los.
Louis (10/5): -
AXELLE (8/5): - Auberge très propre et personnel très accueillant. Cuisine fort bien équipée et également très propre.
Yi (8/5): 徒步路上方便的落脚点 - 地理位置非常好，离火车站步行两分钟。厨房很大，设施齐全，餐厅也很大，对自炊很友好。工作人员很帮忙，drying room很大并且暖风够足，很有用。设施稍微陈旧了一点点，房间里的灯不太亮，淋浴间也是。
Olga (7/5): - Velmi ochotný a vstřícný personál na recepci, velmi dobře vybavená kuchyně není možnost dostatečně vyvětrat v pokoji pro šest osob, v noci vedro
