I last stayed here in 2006 so was due a return visit. Being Easter I expected it to be busy but was fairly quiet. High standards are obvious at this hostel being clean & well maintained. Three NEFF ovens in the self cook area! WIFI was available in my private room. A great stay.

Property was clean and as expected. Check-in time at 5pm is a couple of hours later than other accommodations. Earlier check-in would be more preferable.

I stayed with my son and enjoyed the stay with high hospitality, clean room and shared space. The breakfast was also tasty. The building itself has its charm! And it was easy access on foot and by bus from Canterbury station, which was a perfect for us especially foreigner.

We came with 44 students and were wonderfully welcomed. The bedrooms are great and the food is excellent (especially breakfast which was appreciated by our students). The senior staff was efficient , patient and friendly. We warmly recommand this hostel and hope we will come back, with great pleasure.

Pied à terre économique à Canterbury Si la formule est comparable au YHA, le bâtiment ici n'est pas récent et quelques rénovations restent à faire (fenêtres, peinture, moquette...). Le lieu reste cependant une bonne alternative en terme de prix pour un séjour court. S'agissant de la propreté, un plus au niveau de la salle de restaurant serait apprécié (vaisselle, poussière, meuble de déserte...) et de la cuisine commune (à partager avec les hôtes qui sont pas raisonnables...). Centre ville proche, tout comme la route bien fréquentée.
