A fabulous place to stay to explore Whitby, explore the area and coastal walks. Facilities clean and tidy, great on-site cafe and the local town is walkable, albeit uphill on the return. And superb views of Whitby Abbey on the YHA doorstep.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A great value for money stay. My private ensuite room basic but functional as simply needing somewhere to sleep. Hand soap provided in room but no towels. The property does have self catering kitchens, a tv room, lounge (with board games) and conservatory. The adjoining cafe (which is open to the public) serves full breakfasts from 7.30am and closes as 8.30pm. Despite signage requesting quiet between 11pm and 7am, I was subjected to raised voices from a nearby room well beyond 2am. Nobody present at checkout so a simple key drop box was provided.

As a non binary person and woman I was treated with dignity and respect by the staff of the YHA and allowed to wait in tge television lounge Only negative was a lot of old people in the hostel as guests with their outdated attitudes towards LGBTQI+ people
