Local hotels with en-suite were 20% cheaper than here.,

Good location, reasonable price, although local hotels with en-suite rooms were 20% cheaper thank this place which had a shared bathroom.

Lack of sockets in my room.

Staff was very friendly and kind. Room was clean.Kitchen has everything you need to cook or reheat your meal.I had a flight at 6.25 am from Stansted airport so I took a direct bus from there to airport just before 4am.

the only interesting place to visit around would be Old Harlow. quite a long walk.

although the town of Harlow is not much to visit, the hostel is an ideal night accomodation (next to the train station) to spend the day in London, or to catch an early plane at Stansted very kind people, garden, kitchen, and a big park next door. prices are nice too.

The male staff member was very friendly & welcoming and showed me the facilities and info I needed for my stay . The Hostel was very clean everywhere, and the lounge in the reception area was welcoming . Lovely garden to relax. Nice and quiet within the town park and footsteps away from a nice pub .Would recommend to stay here.

The diningroom/livingroom didn't smell fresh. It was full of sofas and things, which makes it a difficult place to clean, I guess.

Good and cheap room and nice staff. With Stansted Express you reach this hostel soon.

They re trying but could do more with cleaning the bathrooms. The toiletries re always available and there re clean towels but the windows and bath tubes need more cleaning

The property is situated near a beautiful garden with a pond. The area is green, full of vegetation and quiet. I so loved it. Its also very close to the train and bus stations. Very ideal

Maybe a little hard to find, don't take a taxi they are bloody expensive. The train or bus is a better option.

The location is actually very fascinating. The location is almost dead center of the city. The coolest part is that this puts H.I.H. inside the city's central park. You can walk 5 minutes or less and enjoy everything the park offers. Right next door is great restaurant with outside dining along with bar. The fish and chip were great 👍 The owner and manager were great, plus there's a wonderful backyard area to go and hang out. Jeez, I have visited many hostels, this place reminded me more of home than any other. What a gem of a find. Even getting to the train station was only 15-20 minute walk.

It was good.

Self catering is encouraged by all means. The location is perfect walk to town centre, surrounded by beautiful landscapes of the town park, relaxing pub at doorstep,bus station,train station a walking distance.very good location. Staff very friendly and laidback, easy to sit and have a conversation with others within the property. No noise everybody seemed calm.

The bunk beds were a bit low for tall persons, the bathing compartment in the bathroom small, wished its a bit bigger to allow room for free movement. There should be more heaters in the rooms.

The staff and guests were very friendly and receptive and the kitchen quite big.

nothing was wrong at all in the accommodation, very welcoming and left to your own devices maybe parking under a tree wasn't a good idea there were some big birds in that tree

I liked the location very central for everything I had to do based next to the lovely park and near all facilities very comfy beds warm and clean room, and my own key very easy access parking nearby
