Overall Ratings & Reviews YHA Cambridge - Hostel

Clean comfortable cheap and cheerful and close to the station, if you can live with a bunk bed this is perfect.

The rooms are so bright for sleeping. The towels are extra—no lock for the lockers.

Hostel was spotless and the bed so comfy. Excellent breakfast options available.I was looking somewhere with good location and price after flying into Stansted airport - which is only 40 minutes away by train. Will definitely stay again.

Very hot rooms and uncomfortable bedding felt like it was made of non breathable plastic

good price for the place

it´s very close to the train station. good facilities, very clean.

Great place for a good value stay. Beds not comfortable and room really basic and tired looking but couldn’t really expect more for the price. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Cannot fault the cleanliness, the staff, the room (although smaller than expected for 4 people). The only complaint we had was the heat in the room that built up during the day and the room did not cool down enough at night, making the nights too warm and even sweaty.

Good location within walking distance of the train station and bus station stop. Staff is friendly and informative.

The staff were very friendly. And room were quiet. The only thing that is not satisfactory is the bed is very small, and no curtains around the bed without privacy, no USB outlet for charging, needs UK adapter, and for tall people the lower bed can not sit up without hitting the top bunker. Bathroom and toilet room very clean yet extremely small.

Good price. Good value.

The location was very good. It was close to the train station and in an area with plenty of food options. It was also only a short walk to the historic college area. There is a locker provided in the rooms but you must provide your own lock.

Great common areas, including a highly functional kitchen (although you'll need pocket knives) and a quiet living room and courtyard. Good secure bike storage. Laundry is cheaper than actual laundromats. The cleaning staff are incredibly hard working and their efforts are impressive to see. Cambridge is small, so it's a short walk or bike to most places.

I enjoyed my stay here, even if it was just for a night. For my first stay in a Cambridge hostel, it was an unexpectedly pleasant experience. Rooms were clean and had everything I needed. I’m not too picky and the size of the bed was just right for me, but maybe someone taller might have found it less comfortable. They also have a self-catering kitchen for those who prefer to make their own meals (definitely cheaper), and the kitchen was well equipped. I didn’t get to try the breakfast opinion, maybe next time when I come round. I’ll highlight some other things; - Super friendly staff and extremely helpful. I would like to commend the lady receptionist who assisted me in printing documents last minute. She was a real life saver. - They also have a baggage room where you can keep your belongings even if you’re checking out or whilst your room is being prepared. So, I felt quite safe leaving my things there. - The area around seems nice and there are various restaurants nearby. Overall, would definitely come again. Good value for money.

The place is wonderful for a stay. But the room was really warm. The food establishment was good and quite convenient. The hostel was a Good location as well.

Top value for money, fab position, great staff, friendly most basic accommodation, nice to have kitchen and laundry. but don’t forget your ear plugs, face mask, and if you need a soft bed pack a topper. But a bit of a gem really.

The staff are very good. The property was very clean. Value for money and location not far from train station. I recommend the cappuccino.

A cheap no frills stay, decent sleep, with a brilliant breakfast option to kick start the day.

The private room was what’s expected and I was happy with that but I left some valuable items in the room and I have tried to ring 25 times across two days to ask them to check if they’re still there and there has still been no answer

One of the most neat hostels I have ever stayed at.
