Friendly staff! The facility has clean common areas and washrooms, since they’re cleaned everyday. Kitchen is great. It’s too bad the hostel is mostly closed during the cleaning hours (no room and kitchen access) but then again you don’t come to Glencoe to stay inside :) They should fix the faucets and hand dryers in the washrooms since they don’t all work properly. Its nice that they have coffee and tea available all day. I’d recommend jt and would stay here again

We stayed 4 nights in a private room. Overall, the hostel is spacious, clean, comfortable, and friendly. However, we did find the room really hot without much airflow. My only other complaint is that two nights we experienced issues with drunk adults. One of the adults was working the desk a few days later, which is not appropriate. These disturbances were not handled by the staff, which was unfortunate, as it disturbed the evening for all guests.

Please guest at Glencoe Youth Hostel.
First time staying at a hostel. Pleasantly surprised at the facility. Bed was a twin and fairly comfortable. Location was a little out in the woods, but the views were wonderful and the wifi fast. Didn't mind sharing a bathroom. They did have a female only bathroom that was clean and available. Kitchen facilities were awesome, although really didn't use them. I now wish I'd taken advantage of the breakfast service offered. The staff were exceptional. Well informed about area, friendly and efficient at check-in. Because of all of this, I will stay at another hostel in the future.
