The hostel was great and worth the stay for different reasons:
1. Amazing location with big lake, near public transportation
2. Friendly and helpful staff, you can borrow hair dryer at the reception. You can keep your bag in locker room also, bring £1 coin or ask lovely staff for tap to pay.
3. Huge shared kitchen with lots of cooking essentials which can be used to cook nearly everything you can.
4. Clean and well maintained room.
Can’t ask for more with this price.

The location of the hostel is very good, at the entrance of Ambleside Pier on the shore of Lake Windermere. The room is a physical key. The double room I stayed in was a bit smelly. The windows are old-fashioned and the seal is average, but the heating is very hot.

Very satisfied with the YHA Youth Hostel!
Facilities: very clean and easy to use. There is a sink in our room, and it is very comfortable to wash your face with hot water. The bathroom and shower room are very close, clean and easy to use. There are two kitchens, both are very large, very clean and very convenient!
Hygiene: very clean, very satisfied
Environment: right by the lake, very convenient for viewing. We lived in the attic on the fourth floor, and when we woke up in the morning, we found the morning mist in the lake, which was very beautiful
Service: very good, very satisfied

The hotel is right by the lake. You can take a walk by the lake in your spare time. There is nothing to eat nearby, but the hotel has meals. It is about a 20-minute walk from the town center. The transportation is convenient, and the bus ticket is 2 pounds.
