Last minute overnight trip with my daughter (8yrs). We enjoyed the room, bed was comfortable. All staff we spoke too were lovely. I found the hallways had a weird smell.. i couldnt decribe it. There was a lot of noise until 1.30am ish. It kept my daughter awake far longer than I would have liked. Tv was great. Could sign into Netflix etc. I did use "Sue's" Netflix account as that was logged in when i arrived. Id make sure everyone logs out before leaving :0)

I hadn't stayed in a hostel since the early 1990s, so was a little hesitant as a 57 year old. Turns out it was great! I'd easily do it again as the room was great and the service was excellent.

This was my second time staying at Kabannas and had another enjoyable stay. We stayed in a private double room this time and the room was clean, plenty spacious, and the bed was very comfortable! The bathroom was a little small but suitable with a good shower. There were enough plug sockets too which were confidently located. The bar area is a nice area with food and drinks well priced, and the staff are also very friendly! The location was good, within a 10-15 minute walk from the main station, town centre and football stadium. Kabannas offers great value for money and I would happily stay here again, and recommend the hotel for those visiting Newcastle and looking for a good value for money place to stay.

Good value, could be cleaner

Pretty happy overall with the hostel. Great value, comfy bed and all the essentials - toiletries, charging ports etc. the room wasn’t super clean and there was no extractor fan in the bathroom which made the room quite smelly and damp! Quite disappointed in breakfast - £6.50 for a takeaway breakfast with barista coffee. I was happy with the vegan options but the apple was wrinkly and old, and the ‘barista’ coffee advertised was actually just the free instant coffee available to everyone. Would’ve rather gone elsewhere for breakfast. Overall a good stay, well located, cheap and cheerful
