Great location and fabulous historic building. The rooms are very well maintained and clean with sturdy bunk beds too. The onsuite facilities are modern and clean. The staff are just wonderful too. Lovely breakfasts and packed lunches. Limited parking, I think there should be an arrangement between Englist Heritage and YHA for additional car parking. The public car park is not too far away, so no big deal. I also think the door to the loo could have been made to open instead of in, which would help since it is a tight squeeze but again a very small point.

The building, the location and the food Very noisy, under our room which was above the kitchen i think and there seemed to a boiler heating water all night. We got used to it eventually though.

The fabulous old building is lovely. It's location with the Abbey is picturesque. We travelled to Whitby by train so the haul up the steps with our luggage was a bit of a test!

The location is unbelievable, unbeatable, amazing. Just next to the abbey, overlooking the town, it was one of the nicest experiences. Premises were clean and breakfast was very good for the price, a buffet for 5.95, including full English and continental. You can also take some food with you as there are communal kitchen facilities where you can have your own breakfast . Overall, extremely good value for money. Wooden bunk beds were a bit noisy and not very long, my boyfriend fitted just (he is 1.80 m high) but those are just minor issues compared to the amazing advantages of this hostel! That shouldn't put you off! I would stay there again if I was so lucky to find vacancies.
