Plain, simple, clean and safe. Bed was comfortable, liked the cages under the bed got safe storage using my own lock. Bar area/self catering area clean and comfortable, food and drink was reasonably priced! Would happily stay here again

I had high hopes for this YHA. It seemed to be located in a nice spot on the quayside and the lady I spoke to over the phone to book my room was extremely helpful. Unfortunately, it turned out to be one of my worst ever overnight stays. My tiny room was in the eaves and was extremely stifling. I asked if it was possible to have a more powerful fan as it wouid be difficult to sleep in such high temperatures. A bonde haired girl informed me that ‘we don’t have electric fans’! There was one in the room already so what was that all about? I asked for a towel so I could soak it in cold water to cool down. The same woman informed me that there was a charge of £2.50 per towel.|I decided to pay £5.99 for the continental breakfast. I was informed here that they had run out of yoghurt! Surely they should check their supplies. So all that was available was cereal, watered down juice, toast and apples. An awful choice.|So, a really inferior YHA and a terrible experience with abysmal customer service thrown in! Avoid at all costs!

This hostel is in a great location. The cafe on the ground floor has outdoor seating which is a nice spot. The chef doing breakfast was friendly and helpful and the food was good - same quality as other YHA's. ||The drawbacks we found were firstly that the "special rate" at the Apex car park mentioned on the website is in fact just the usual pre-booked day rate of £10.95 which ends at midnight so is a minimum £21.90 for anyone staying overnight. ||The second was that there are 5 of us and yet only 3 duvet covers were left in our room. We asked for the two missing duvet covers at Reception and we were told they'd bring them. Our young children waited up with us for them but they never came. One of the duvets itself had both a blood and what looked very much like a mould stain.||We were on the 5th floor in the eaves and our room was very hot yet it wasn't that hot outside. There was a good fan in our room but we could only have it pointing at one set of beds or the middle of the room so in a room with effectively two sleeping areas really it needs 2 fans in this heat. On a very hot night I think this room/floor is likely to be uncomfortably warm.||Unfortunately, we were unable to book an ensuite as they were all gone.The shower on our floor was clean, hot and powerful.

i stay at YHA bristol each month and i always book for vegan breakfast . during my 1st two stays , my vegan breakfast was freshly cooked infront of me and served to me , now from last two times , they have buffet the breakfast, i asked for vegan option and the girl at breakfast reception didnt came back to me. the eggs were almost finished when i went to the buffet and instead of saying i will refill the egg tray she said this is the only left (whats the buffet means ?). the juices were finished and didnt refilled atleast till then i stayed there. overall my stay is always so pleasure but the breakfast is now disappointing

I stayed at this hostel last week. I accidentally left a jacket behind and called the hostel to see if they could find it. They did and kept it safe for me to come and collect when I happened to be visiting the city this week. Please thank all your team members for their help with this.

YHA redefined It's been quite a while since I last stayed in a YHA place and my experience in Bristol blew me away. At every single area the experience was nothing short of outstanding. The staff, their helpfulness, the drinks, food, beds, luggage storage, showers (amazing). It was perfect. Well ok one toilet could have been a bit cleaner but that's my only negative. I highly recommend this place, especially it's location slap bang in the docks. But don't take my word for, try it for yourself.

I've stayed at this hostel 4 or 5 times now and have loved every stay. Firstly location wise being so close to the arnolfini and harbour side is excellent, the staff are very friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. The rooms are always tidy and there is very little noise from inside the hostel. One previous visit also saw a local musician play some acoustic music which was lovely. I'd recommend this place to anyone.

This is a quality youth hostel located perfectly in the centre of tourist Bristol; looking out onto the floating harbour, the Arnolfini next door and other attraction such as @ Bristol, the Cathedral and Park Street only a stone's throw away. The hostel is of excellent quality, seemingly more like a hotel than a hostel, but still has dorms ranging from rooms for two to ten plus. The hostel welcomes groups and solitary visitors and has a range of communal spaces including a cafe, classroom, games room, library, lounge and canteen. The dorms are extremely tidy and well kept. The hostel isn't the cheapest you can find, but definitely worth the money for a comfortable and enjoyable visit to Bristol.

I was misinformed about where to take a bus to the airport. Person in the bar did not know how to make a coffee. Room a little dirty and dusty smell bed clothes.

THis youth hostel is similar to other types of Youth hostels - with accommodation in dormitories - typicallu 5 beds per room althought there are some family rooms which can be booked. Prices are much more resonable than a hotel, and this youth hostel is located right in the city centre - handy for transport links etc!
