this hostel has been issued with a prohibition order due to several major breaches in health and safety and fire regulations.

What this means is that it is not aloud to host any guests as it is an unsafe property to stay in, as it does not have the necessary safety systems in place.

Please take my advice and avoid this accomodation with a barge pole!!!

If you want to confirm this story you can contact the health and safety office for the region on 01349 868 489

In summary do NOT risk your safety by staying here in fact i am surprised the owner is aloud to advertise this business due to her total lack of concern for her guests/tennants safety.
