Great location
Good location, reasonable size room, good kitchen which was well equipped and the staff were excellent. Shower wasn't as clean as we would have expected and the light on the nearest toilet didn't work. Couple of nice pubs very close to the hostel.

Malodorous Malham Hostel
The room was dirty and cold (the heater didn't work). The ensuite bathroom was full of mildew and made the entire room smell.

Excellent location in a beautiful village. Unable to park on night 1 as no space, limited parking was highlighted so not an issue. Rooms are very clean, showers & toilet excellent. Absolute value for money & would stay again.

Parking not signposted well for arrivals in the dark. Sign informing drivers of reverse parking only visible in daylight, might have helped people park properly and leave more space for other vehicles. 2 bed rooms v small but ok for a one night stay. Anyone using toilets will disturb others sleeping in rooms nearby.
