Ladies at reception were consistently simley and displayed great customer service skills
The bathroom was clean and ventilated well- so the conditions were regulated and nice

Booked a double room, was given a hostel dorm room.
They said they had no free other rooms so I had no choice but stay

I have to say, our stay at a&o was 11 out of 10! From location, to staff, from room to coffee/bar from seating areas to views and a short (under 5 minutes) walk to the historic Brighton Palace Pier!
I simply cannot fault this lovely (I would so not call) hostel! I am already looking to book for another stay!
The wonderful Isla couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. Thank you again Isla! 💝✨️
The bathroom was TOP NOTCH! The seating areas were simply beautiful and the staff were the cherry on the cake!
In all my years, with a travel/tourism business degree under my belt, I have to say this is the first time my eyes opened to REAL, TRUE, HONEST value for money accommodation!
I know I'm going on and on but honestly, I mean every word! If you don't believe me, try for yourself! Ps. I recommend the Cappuccino and a game of table mini football! 🙌✨️💕

Very pleased with location. Super convenient. Will definitely come back. Down side is bed not very comfy for overweight people. , noise isolating minimal. But ok friendly staff.
1.0
The positive thing about this accommodation is that it is very close to the beach, and the second is the cleanliness of the room. I got a double room which only had one double bed and it was not suitable for two people. And it had a very small window. There was no any fridge. I felt like I was in a prison and I was trying to get out. And because it was located on the main street, it was very crowded and noisy and I couldn't sleep at night.
5.0
It's a very basic room (I knew this as it's a hostel) but the price was good and location is unbeatable.

Had a beautiful sea view with a side of a demolished building. Our stay was overall good for value.

This is the best place to stay for people with a lower budget. We booked a room with a private bathroom. It’s in the city centre/next to the beach and the pier! The facilities could use some TLC but it’s not that bad. Would definitely come back here again. Thank you!

Shocking, don’t stay if you want to sleep. Also you have to pay for a towel.

Great hostel! I really love the lounge area! It was chill and quiet and had a wonderful coffee shop vibe. I enjoyed my stay; everything was great. The internet was a bit unsteady on the upper floors, but other than that, I'd stay again for sure.

Large clean ensuite room in great central location with sea views

Never given a hotel 1 star till today. : Understand it's a hostel, but booked a private room would atleast expect towels (ÂŁ2.50 each to borrow) to be free, never in my life had to pay for them anywhere I stayed before. No basics such as hairdryer, shampoo, soap, kettle/drink facilities ect. Really is the bare minimum you get. For a. 4 star accommodation it doesn't add up.
Inside Curtains could easily be cleaned but covered in blood or something aswell. Disgusting!! Bit more effort to clean wouldn't have gone a miss
Weird that they have a wonderful done up bathroom but still charge for towels.
Room was spacious & perfect location decent view atleast.
2.0
was a little disappointed to be honest,the bed was comfortable enough,strangely placed right in front of a large window,meaning i had to have the curtains closed,even in daylight,strange too that the tv was positioned behind the head of the bed,meaning i had to stand to view it.i did not have the tv on for long though,as the lack of signal meant having it on was for the most part,a waste of time.there was no kettle in my room,and in the bathroom,i had a bath,but no shower,this strangely,was right in front of the window too.for the ÂŁ130 i paid for the night,i would've expected towels to be supplied for free,but,no,(good job i brought my own)these were for hire! staff were very nice and helpful,and i slept very well,however,i certainly couldn't describe my stay as value for money,so,therefor,wouldn't be staying here again.

Have stayed here a couple of times previously and it was just as good! Room was huge, tidy, view was excellent and I think it’s great value for money. Located so close to everything too. Staff were kind and service was good.
1.5
Great location, beautiful building, and staff friendly.
Need lockers, more hooks, posters to remind people to listen to videos with their headphones, and if chatting on phone - go to lobby. Lobby chairs could be a bit comfier. More explanation on what can be recycled.
Be great if there was a kitchen.
Bathtub needed a good scrub, looks like it was probably hard to reach. Otherwise seemed pretty clean.
Very noisy outside with pub/club goers until 4 am!

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The hostel is kept very clean and is not far from places to eat and drink and very close to the centre of Brighton. The double room we stayed in was quite big and the shower always had hot water but the walls and windows were in need of some TLC, however this did not bother us and would definitely use again.

When we reached there ,was fire everywhere police can’t go or enter the building. Spent whole night on road and got no refund

Good place in central Brighton. Booked a private room and got a HUGE room all to myself, TV and bathtub too.
1.0
It states dorms sleeping 6 so I assumed it was 6 beds. Turns out it was 2 beds so had to pay over £100 and couldn’t stay here as there was to many of us. Wasn’t clear when booking and really did cause stress on the evening.
2.5
It was really clean and updated. The service was great. I’m an avid pillow monster and would have benefited with 2 pillows rather than the one provided. So in future I would bring my own pillow. Other than that it was a lovely clean stay. The bathroom was clean also.
The only thing I’ll mention is because of the location, and the clubs, pubs and events around it was loud but kinda expected it as we were in central brighton.
2.5
Huge room with a spacious bathroom (better than a lot of hotels) in a lovely old building. Fantastic sea view. Comfy bed. Staff were great, our room was ready early. Good price compared to other accommodation.
I would very happily stay again.
Things people might not like but which didn't bother me : it is an old building and has some wear and tear. Not double glazed and some noise from club opposite solved by my earplugs. Towels available with a small fee, I took my own. No kettle in room and kitchen unavailable (took a travel kettle). Minimal furnishings.

Cannot fault it one bit. Check in was smooth, reception staff were lovely, and room was perfect. Room was HUGE, we had a fantastic view and the bed was comfy. Will definitely be coming back, great value for money.

We booked a double, private room. We only stayed one night. The room was clean and bright. The curtains could have covered the windows more. There was no towels in the room (found out after we left you had to pay extra for that) TV was a little Iffy too but we wasnt there long. No tea or coffee making facilites in the room.

I chose the YHA because of its cost and location and as a single lady, chose to pay for a double room. I had made a special request which was honoured - thank you! I cannot praise the hostel highly enough. The staff were friendly and helpful and carried my heavy bag upstairs for me. Yes, the room was basic but apart from a kettle and a towel, it had EVERYTHING one could need. I knew from the hostel info that these items were not provided and made arrangements for myself. I paid for the cooked breakfast and it was plentiful and excellent. I urge you to support this place - it is the best deal in the whole of Brighton. Thank you to all staff. If you are reading this, then look NO further, if basic is OK for you, then book right now!

YHA Brighton gave us a warm welcome for our short stay and is ideally located near the sea front and pier.
The room was on the shabby side, but met our needs.
4.0
A nice affordable place. We stayed for New Year’s and a convenient access to the beach. Easily accessible food options, clubs, pubs and a theatre. Only cons is that the room is a bit weird with the wall sticker and the paint coming out. The bathroom is renovated and feels much cleaner than the room. You have to pay extra £2 for the towels. Staffs were amazing and very nice. The cafe is nice and the guy who made us tea at night was so nice. Overall, happy with the place and the stay.
