Everything easy and perfect from start to finish. Lovely communication and super easy check in and parking! Lovely clean place, very well thought out, lovely and generous touches like shower gel, shampoo, milk, fresh bread, cereal… jam, butter, yoghurt.. fridge, Microwave, tons of crockery. Everything has clear instructions, even a guest book. The views of the fields and open skies, wonderful. Woke to cuckoos and the dawn chorus, dreamy. Homely, practical and very welcoming. Thank you. Looking forward to next stay.

Nothing wrong with the actual accommodation but the road outside the house is a gentle little road but the cars fly along it like it’s the m4. Just be really careful when you’re leaving the property as you’re so relaxed then it’s a bit of a shock!

The people running Central Backpackers are really sweet and understanding (in my case very understanding). The bunk bed I had in the mixed room was good, with a curtain to maintain some privacy, and with a power socket to charge phone etc. Also good are the spacious lockers within the room, and if you forget your padlock, as I did, they sell a really good one. The kitchen facilities are 100% good.

The public area is like a waiting room, with a TV blaring sports most of the time. Not much natural light. The bathrooms could pay more attention to women's needs. The location is desolate, but that's not the hostel's fault.

The corridor leading to the room had flooring ripped off and the wooden planks had nails sticking out of them, it was a hazard. TV had no channels on and was unable to connect to the WiFi. No instruction card in the room mentioning about the amenities available or how to connect to the internet. Wardrobe had no rod to hang the clothes. I liaised with the owner, who promised to fix it next day, but never heard back from anyone! Had to use chairs to hang my clothes, not ideal.
