YHA Sheringham

The staff were so welcoming and engaging, with having good conversation with the cook and receptionist. The layout of the building is really nice with plenty of communal rooms to choose from. Choice of games and pool table were great to see. Breakfast was not bad and a good price for the options especially with being unlimited.

Cleanliness was not great, particularly in the disability shower room. The place could really do with having some of its areas freshly painted or at least touched up in some areas.

All very good. breakfast and kitchen facilities in particular

Friendly and helpful staff...a well equiped communal kitchen and great value for money

I was in the same corridor as a school group and it was really noisy at times but they never kept me awake and it is a youth hostel after all.

Great value for money, ideal location in centre of town, have been before and would go back

N/A

Simple, cheap, friendly, good location. Nice big self catering kitchen.

Think there could be storage to leave rucksacks on checkout day. Bike shed outside although locked doesn’t feel like an ok place to leave bags. Eg toilet nearest kitchen is huge maybe could have a cupboard or lockers inside it. Otherwise maybe lockers in a corridor area.

Excellent value for money Clean comfortable beds. Hot showers great. Great cooked breakfast. Location perfect

N/a

Very well located and very close to the train station and a very convenient Tesco store at the end of the road. Cheap accommodation and exactly what I needed. Clean rooms and clean bedding and very peaceful and quiet in the evening. Breakfast was good on one out of the two days

Very Noisy come 7am, squeaky floorboards above woke me along with Many slamming doors at 7am…. I hadn’t slept well due to the bunk bed mattress being quite hard. The community kitchen seemed well equipped but it took me a long time to actually FIND IT….. Maybe better Signage could be put in place as it’s not in an obvious place???….. all I wanted to do was fill up my water bottle! Breakfast on the second day was over dried, had been on the hot plate way too long, certainly not fresh, the bacon was inedible

Close to transport. Friendly helpful staff. Hostel excellent facilities.

Bit cold. Could have turned heating on a few days earlier.

Well organised and everything we needed was available. Really good quality breakfast was appreciated.

Fixed times for reception to arrive caught us out so had to stand out in the cold after a long bike ride to get there.

Location is excellent,within easy walk of Sheringham.Breakfast was good, enough choice.

Bed was hard for me, but that wouldn’t stop me staying again, everything else is spot on.

Location was perfect close to Heathrow and other amenities.

Kettle was not cleaned in the kitchen.

Central location with plenty of parking.

Probably the worst YH I’ve stayed at. Very dated and felt very dirty throughout. For some reason the bunks were pushed up against an exposed built in wardrobe so spent most mornings trying to find items which had fallen in to the hole. Very limited bar facilities and no d of your usual local products.

The best thing was the affordability of the accommodation. I shared a bunk room with my daughter which was small but beds were new and all decorated recently. Breakfast was perhaps overpriced at £10 extra each since it was a limited choice and quality, but they did manage to offer a hot selection and it was convenient.

Nice location, close to supermarket, free parking. Kitchen facilities

Booked Three singles beds, but got very small room with double bed and single on the top. For three adults was too small, but we managed as it was only one night. Would not stay more in that room.

Rooms were functional and comfortable. Loved the self-catering kitchen, really handy. Surprisingly quiet at night considering it is a hostel. The bed was comfy and managed a decent sleep for the 2 nights we were there. Location was brilliant. Less than 10 minutes to the sea front and shops. Tesco literally around the corner. Plenty of parking but does fill up quickly.

The reception is shut between 10am-5pm. We arrived at 4 pm and needed to check in and get to a concert almost an hour away, but we had to sit waiting. Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten our key as we would have been back after 10pm when it closes again.

In some area of the hostel there was unpleasant smell

It was easy to find and lots available to do ,friendly service and staff, everything to hand what you need, beds are really comfortable and clean and tidy would stay there again

There is nothing wrong there it's all gd

Perfect for what we needed with a great price

Nothing

Staff very friendly and helpfful

Beds were awful!! Too hard and all singles. Breakfast expensive and the ‘hot food’ was cold and wasnt allowed to help ourselves like anywhere else.

Brilliant location, only had one breakfast but it was very good. Self catering kitchen rather cramped.

No changing table or facilities for changing nappies of child.

Lovely old former school building, big and spacious. Has pool table and two comfortable lounges. The self catering kitchen is excellent 👍

The staff at the reception was excellent, really nice people. The place is basic but clean, beds comfortable, and there is everything you possibility will need. We had a great stay, location is great too!

Nothing!

Nice comfortable lounges, good self catering facilities and nice canteen area.

Plastic mattresses were not great and toilet and shower were basic in nature.

The location was perfect. Both catered & selfcatering choices worked well. Staff were helpful.

The dormitory was very small to cater for 6 females. When it was full it became very hot with so many bodies in a small space. No room to put your Luggage, especially for the top bunks.

Brilliant. Better than most B&Bs in Norfolk

Rooms were clean, beds were comfy, great value for money, will return!

An extra plug socket maybe, might being a kettle next time :)

Own room with friends. Secure place to store bikes. Self catering kitchen had everything utensils wise that we needed. Was clean.

Disappointed with breakfast expected some protein with continental - thought would be cheese ham and pastries.

Everything

Nothing

Good location and cheap. Fresh, crisp linen.

It felt grubby and run down.

I had a spare duvet to put on the bed as the mattresses are plastic covered and slip against the sheets. Without this mattress is a bit basic.

Staff was pleasant and relaxed. There was plenty of areas where you could chill in the evening. Self-catering kitchen was well equipped. Easy access to the seafront and all the amenities.

The hostel is boasting about it being 3 stars. I'd say it's more than 2 and I'm being generous here. The rooms are small and very basic. In our twin room there was one socket on the wall next to the door... nothing near the bed. My friend's family room was also cramped and smelled badly. They have complained that there was constant noise outside from people going out to smoke and talking loud outside their windows+ walking/driving on the gravelled path. Definitely not worth £90! you can easily find B&B for less or far better quality! I don't know when hostels became so expensive... definitely not value for money anymore. On our floor there was many rooms, with thin partition walls. I could hear our neighbours talking in normal voice. Don't get me even started on the slamming door concerto! it started about 5:30am and went all the way until I couldn't stand it any longer and got up an hour before my alarm! May I add I wore silicone earplugs, yet it was still unbearable :-( The shower room on our floor was really off putting. It had one hook to hang something on it and nothing else to place your clothes/towels to keep it dry. The shower head could not be regulated and it was splashing water on the floor, also wetting my hair which I didn't want to get wet. Overall, It's a massive disappointment as I stayed in fair few YHA hostels and had far better experience. Having travelled extensively through Europe, where I mostly stayed in hostels, I can say that YHA hostels could do much better. They don't charge any less from privately owned ones.
