Liked: My wife and I have been living here since months and I really like the hostel. It's very convenient location next to the york town. 5 minutes walking distance. Hostel is very clean, amazing decoration and we appreciate the welcoming gestures of the receptionist DAWA who always helps us when we are in need. She recommends the places to explore, professional and we feel very welcome every time we check in. Safestay is our 2nd home bow and we recommend people to stay here.
Disliked: The Best Hostel

Okay for a night
Liked: The hostel is quite big and there are many spots to sit and work.The staff was nice and overall it was clean.The wifi was good too. Each beds comes with curtains and outlets.
Disliked: I had to pay £3 just to drop off my luggage two hours before check-in, which felt a bit unreasonable. I’d understand being charged for storing luggage after check-out, but charging before check-in doesn't really align with the backpacker-friendly spirit you'd expect from a hostel.Breakfast costs £8 and includes croissants, pain au chocolat, a few types of cereal, milk, juice, tea, coffee, cheese, and ham. I had a deal through my booking and got it for £2, which felt fair — but at full price, I don't think it's really worth it.The mattress in my bunk was quite uncomfortable — worn down in the middle from years of use, and it sagged noticeably. The bed also shook a lot whenever someone moved or coughed, which made it hard to sleep. Each room has its own private bathroom, which is nice in theory, but mine was tiny and had an unpleasant smell.Overall, the place is okay for a single night if you're on a tight budget, but I wouldn’t choose to stay longer than that.
