Be aware the hostel is used for school groups and while they won't share your dorm, they will use the shared bathrooms & showers

Excellent dorms very comfortable and lovely communal space

Stayed in April 2024

The shower facility is a bit too simple.

Large community area. Each bed has its own curtains to protect privacy. The bed facility is comfortable.

The facilities were fantastic. Bed was very comfortable. Staff were really friendly.

Excellent place!, friendly staff, Dave always helped with any questions. It's close to everything since the center of St. Ives is rather small. Non-expensive, I'm glad I found it.

Rooms with 8 beds are small, and we couldn't close the windows at night completely because of needing fresh air and it was so noisy outside..

Great and helpful staff, i knew if i need something they would definitely help me out. Perfect location, big kitchen and lobby, i loved also hanging out on lobby and there are always people around to talk to

I've stayed at the cohort before. It's simply the best. It makes you fall in love with hostels

What an excellent place to stay. Unless you hate hostels of course. Lots of great spaces. Dormitory beds have power and a light each plus a place to put things. Lockable cupboards under the beds. The thoughtful details go on and on. And great staff and a smashing location. I would definitely stay there again. In fact I did.

That I can’t book another visit during October half term, but that only frustrates me because I enjoyed it enough to want to return.

I liked my bed with the privacy curtain and light, which gave me cosy privacy and made it easy to sleep. The other guests were friendly and the staff were very helpful. The washing machine, drying rack and kitchen were all very useful. The building was well presented and the locations was ideal.

I loved everything. It she best hostel I've ever stayed in, people working there are the kindest and the most helpful, the hostel itself is very well mantained, beautiful from the inside and has a very nice common area. I worked there and it was excellet – the internet connection was stable and there are electric outlets everywhere.

The bathroom and toilet can be cleaner

The location is perfect. Minutes walk away from beach and markets

Really great hostel - super clean, super friendly & St Ives is beautiful!

Stayed in September 2023

The tap in the ladies toilet needs to be fixed but this made no difference to my stay

Lots of space to meet people and socialise and the free tea and coffee in the mornings

Affordable stay.... Good staff Very close to beach area.

It would have been good to have more storage/chairs in the room for those on the top bunks to be able to organise belongings. Perhaps more storage by the beds/shelves for books/phones etc.

Enough showers/toilets available that never had to queue, plenty of space in lounge area for all guests. Very close to town centre and beaches. Felt very safe here as a solo traveller.

Stayed in August 2023

The light in my bed was not working.

Well-organised and spacious kitchen, clean toilets, large lockers and enough/proper space to dry your clothes outside. My room was surprisingly quiet and clean for a shared room. I particularly liked the curtains covering each bed, which gives an you much more privacy. It's certainly one of the best hostels I've ever stayed.

Closing time of the common spaces.

One night was a bit interrupted by 2 individuals coming into mixed dorm at 3.10am and leaving noisily and smellily around 6am - waking up groans, loud farting and aerosol deoderant spraying- not exactlty charming- I had no sleep from 3.10am and opened the window more

I liked the Weslyan building - especially the light airy lounge/bar area and the whole caring eco ethos of the place and staff. The outside area looked good , but I didn't use it and helpful to know that there is cl0thes washing facility- altho not needed as just a 3 night stay
