Pros: Staff was wonderful! Phillip was always very accommodating, especially there was another guest in the female dorm who had stinky shoes - Phillip politely asked n took the girl’s shoes out of the bedroom, provided air fresheners, opened window wider, opened our bedroom door for a bit longer. Angel & Amy were wonderful, too. They kept the place in tip top shape. Location was superb - a few minutes walk to the city, it’s attractions, all it’s amenities - eateries, cafes, public transportations. Breakfast was available all day & always stocked. A very quiet area.
Cons: Carpeted floor in female dorm which traps smell & dirt no matter how much vacuuming; it needs to be steamed cleaned at least every 6 months! Shoes should not be allowed in female dorms as the room is too small and too tight with only 1 window working. In Scandinavia, most hostels do not allow shoes, they have to leave them by the entrance door on shoe racks or shelves. No toilet in ground floor where the female dorm is, one has to go up the next floor.

Superb, first time I stayed in a Hostel and I was amazed how nice this place was. Very well equiped and in center of leeds top
The Lady hotel employee not really a people person, asked her for toilet rolls as both top floor toilets had been empty of rolls and she was too busy on a personal phone call, she acted like I had been disturbing her. The man hotel worker really welcoming and customer focused but the lady was the opposite. However the lady during the day was superb at clearning and arranging the hotel , perhaps she needs some training on customer training

Good value for money. Facilities are clean; the room was very quiet from arrival to departure. This is not a 'party hostel' - there are rules about curfew. It was great for me as I was travelling for work and needed somewhere cheap but good in Leeds. A decent range of breakfast cereals and other items are provided free, with different types of milk in the fridge. The kitchen has all the necessary white goods for preparing your own meals. WiFi is available throughout the hostel and is free. Check-in and check out were friendly and easy. I walked from the bus station to the hostel, which took about 25 minutes. The hostel is about 10 minutes walk from the centre of Leeds and all the shops and facilities. I've been using hostels for years, and this was a very good one.
Can't think of anything bad.

I've never stayed in a hostel before and the idea came for a friend- When I booked my expectations were mis-conceptive for sure. But the host Phill was very genuine and welcoming from the onset. The room I stayed in was the female dorms with bunk beds. The rooms and kitchen were clean and the kitchen was exceptional stocked with variety of bread, spreads and breakfast items available 24/7- giving that homely feel. The guests there were also very respectful during the late and early hours.
No curtains in the AFAB (female) dorms- The combination and light and sound pollution into the room made for a few restless night.

Angel welcomed me warmly upon arrival and got me settled in after showing me the facilities. Phil was more than helpful the following day and Amy was bright and chatty. All together, the team looked after me exceptionally well, the facilities were clean, and there was a variety of breakfasts to choose from, plus unlimted tea and coffee which made the stay tops! Leeds is a beautiful city with the most amazing architecture, and I visited Temple Newsam, amongst rolling hills and wooodland, the following day which was spectacular. All in all, a brilliant trip and I shall definitely be going back to Russell Scott Backpackers Hostel, Leeds, again!
It was all just great!

The room was large and the beds were comfortable The staff were lovely and the breakfast was great
The owner reminded me of check out time many times, and even knocked on my door to give a 15 minute warning to check out (15 mins before check out). This was unnecessary and not very welcoming.

The lady who greeted me was very lovely. Kitchen and dining room was very clean As was my room and the bathrooms Very good value for money especially a double room to myself Breakfast basic but nice There was a heater I used briefly Not too far form the centre, I walked there and back
The bottom sheet was a flat one and didn't fit on my bed so a scrunched up mess in the morning And no mattress protector on Also the mattress was higher at one side so I sort of slid over the bed

Room clean, free tea, milk, toast, cereal all day, staff friendly and helpful, secure locking system.
One of the bedroom guests were rude and inconsiderate, particularly one muslim woman who prayed on the floor without asking permission and blocked me from getting to my bed and when I asked her to move she was aggressive and very rude. I am always in favour of freedom of thought, speech and belief but when people in public conditions like shared rooms impose these thoughts and beliefs on others of dissimilar beliefs it is insulting and discriminative. Perhaps the hostel should inform residents that no religious ceremonies are performed in shared spaces.

Phil, who also lives on site, was an exceptional host, professional and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for him. On our arrival he had told an all male group staying next to us to ensure they kept the noise down as they were staying out late. No warning was needed as the lads were perfectly behaved despite being the worse for wear the next day. Great value for money with plenty of cereals, bread and preserves etc for breakfast. Would definitely stay again.
Toilet seat a little low (I'm disabled) but not a deal breaker. No TV but WiFi is available to access your own apps.

The two staff members (John & Angela) were so kind, genuine, and welcoming. Throughout the day they'd work tirelessly to make sure everything was clean and in order. The breakfast deal was a great surprise too 🙏🏾
The only downside was that we could hear some slightly noisy customers staying in the adjacent room. This is to be expected in a hostel, so it didn't negatively affect our overall stay too much.
