Formby Hotel provides a decent stay with a convenient location. However, it would be nice if they offered a buffet-style breakfast. The rooms could also be a bit cleaner with a fresher scent. Additionally, there were no staff present during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient. If the price were a little lower, it would be perfect. Formby Hotelは、便利な立地で快適に過ごせますが、ビュッフェ式の朝食があれば良いなと思いました。また、もう少し清潔で部屋の匂いが良ければさらに良いと思います。滞在中スタッフがいなかったため、少し不便に感じました。もう少し価格が安ければ最高です。

It was a double room dormitory, but it was fine because only one person was booked. I didn't like the smell of the room, so I ventilated it all the time even though it was cold. I thought it was comparable in price.

I stayed here for a long period of time. I thought it was good quality for a backpackers hostel. Beds were made every 3-4 days, towels were changed every day, and trash was removed. All the staff were very kind.

I booked a room for just one night in transit, thinking it would be enough if I could just sleep, but it was quite hard to share a room with someone I didn't know. However, the hotel itself wasn't bad.
