Lovely, comfortable hostel and friendly staff! The food was good, and it was great to be able to buy a beer after a day's walk on the South Downs Way!

Nice friendly staff in a a Period Building with nice feautures and lots of space in and outside.The staff were very friendly and helpful and had a nice welcome for guests. Good to see that YHA-E&W keep these Hostels open to members which is great to be able to explore the beautiful countryside of Sussex

Staff friendly, but often quite slow and inefficient. Some seemed inexperienced about basic hostel systems and services like dinner bookings and internet services. Dinner was not fantastic and overpriced. No security lockers provided. Nice location, large, green outdoor space very much a plus. Reasonably priced.
