St. Christopher's Inn - Newquay is perfectly located for summer sun-seekers and surfers! It is located within twenty meters of the beach, which regularly has good swell. The hostel mainly attracts tourists -- mostly the surfer crowd -- in the summer. The hostel is located nearby the main drag of bars in Newquay.
The hostel offers four-, six-, and eight-bed dorms, and even in off-season they are quite pricey! Checking in is a painless procedure, however the stairs to get to your room are quite daunting! The dorms are clean and some have fantastic views over the beach. Beds are a bit creaky though! The hostel itself is clean and has spectacular views from the bar area.
One letdown about the place is that there is only one shower per floor, and we think only two showers overall The showers are relatively clean, but it takes a while to get a hot shower. The two showers per floor can be quite annoying if there is a line in the morning. Breakfast is somewhat of a letdown also -- the staff struggle to get tea and bread out for the guests, which is very frustrating. Do note, there are no parking facilities. All in all, a cheap place to stay, and most likely the best central location you will find. It's ideal for surfers.
