Jenny Braysher

29 January 2008 Jenny would recommend this property

Liked: The kitchen/communal area was friendly, clean and tidy, although perhaps a sofa would be really good for watching the TV or DVDs, rather than just chairs. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the hostel was ideally located for seeing all of Thurso, and for being close to the train station and bus stops.

Disliked: Jenny left no negative feedback.
