The Riding fool was perfect for our little family! Comfy beds, very clean facilities, great smelling towels and soaps in the washrooms, excellent common room with games and pool table, great place to meet people…and a place to store and fix our bikes to to it off! Common kitchen area with everything. And in central Cumberland where we could walk to everything. We will definitely be back! But for longer:) Thank you so much!!

Such a unique experience! This is NOT your typical hostel. The place oozes charm and comfort. The common areas are spacious and welcoming. The bathrooms are clean. The sleeping spaces are simple without sacrificing comfort and privacy. On my return I will stay longer.

Jen helped me with my bags and took the time to talk. A lovely woman. She’s so welcoming. The room and bathroom were as spotless as always. The bed and pillows are always so comfortable and the location is right in town so you can walk everywhere. The lake is a short drive as well as hiking trails. I love the old hardwood floors , and comfy furnishings in the common areas. The kitchen is so spacious and has 2 stoves , big fridge and anything you need from Brita coffee makers to plates cups and cutlery annd cookware. And there is nice clean plush white towels. I’ve never been able to find anything negative about this hostel. It’s a lovely experience staying here and I always look forward to my stay. Thanks to the people who run it I’ve always returned.

Owner was very friendly and helpful. Great location - especially if you're into mountain biking. The Waverly Bar and Restaurant down the street is excellent. The town is a former coal town with a number of quaint shops, a work in progress. Bathrooms are shared. The common room and kitchen are excellent.

Sadly it was not quiet when I stayed here. The hostel was full and many people trickled in on. A Friday night between 10pm- 12am. Lots of loud talking in front of the rooms and talking down the hallways to others who in the common room. Noisy people in the common room. I wouldn’t recommend Room#1 - it’s right beside the common rooms and kitchen and you hat everything. Beds are on the harder sister. Based on other accommodations in the area, not sure the cost justified the experience. Cleanliness was excellent and its a cute place - just not great for a single person I guess.

Riding Fool Hostel never disappoints. Staff have always been friendly and helpful. Rooms and washrooms are clean and well stocked. The only issue we had, given the warm seasonal temperatures, was that the rooms were uncomfortably hot at night. Fans were available however, they were not quite enough to keep the air flowing. Maybe an unreasonable suggestion but a vent at bottom of door and top of door frame would likely assist in drawing in the air-conditioned air from the common areas. Otherwise, amazing stay as usual. See you next year!
