Toonraider 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 My friend and i just had a good weekend in the Cotswolds visiting the usual picturesque places such as Broadway, stow on the wold and the slaughters. Anyway a small group of us are going back to Stratford again in Dec for 2 nights, just for some christmas shopping not to mention the Stratford town ghost walk Anyhow, whilst looking for a cheap B&B or hotel we found this....have to say i have never stayed in a youth hostel and didnt even think i could now (I thought i was way too old) But this place looks something else! and its so cheap! Think we might go for it. Any of you lot stayed in a youth hostel? I didnt know there were any quite like this one! http://www.yha.org.uk/hostel/hostelpages/197.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Only in Australia (apart from field study trips at school), didn't like them in general especially the YHA ones but definitely preferred smaller family run-type affairs. Not sure if that helps really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6459 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I'm above hostels now tbh. And buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21125 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I'm above hostels now tbh. And buses. Me too. I went to loads as a kid until I was banned at 17. They were pretty basic then and most of them had segregated dormitories for men and women, which is obviously shit if you have a partner. I've heard they've been modernised recently and a lot have closed down though. Still, I would go to a hotel personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonraider 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 I'm above hostels now tbh. And buses. Perhaps thats why im drawn to this as ive never stayed in one before! Must admit i had an image of a row of beds in a dimly lit Dorm with hairy dirty blankets on the beds But this place is a lovely building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I've only ever stayed in them on school trips, which is a nightmare for anyone else staying in them and hence the reason I would never stay in one now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine what that room must have hummed like after you'd polished off your scotch egg, prawn cocktail crisps and umbongo packed lunch.

nufc4ever 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Just make sure you don't stay on the top floor, watching the people below out of the window would properly bongle your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use swimming pools on holiday, but I get washed afterwards in my en-suite bathroom. And I don't like using the showers at the gym, but I will if I have to.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Camp it up yes, but just in San Francisco. I heard a vicous rumour that Renton got bummed in a hostel whilst away with the school, thats how he's a bit odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
