You need to know where your towel is. If you are a fursuiter, you need to know where your towels are. Most importantly, your towel will not be provided by the YHA in Manchester (it's a four star hostel, not hotel). Similarly, the hostel won't be providing flannels. Probably no shampoo, shower gel, little tubes of toothpaste, diddy bars of soap, slippers, shoe shine kits, shower caps, or executive bath robes either.
You do get a duvet, a pillow, and blankets (should you need them). There's no turn down service, no delicate minty choccy on your pillow when you retire for the night. In fact, your bed will look exactly the same as the way you left it. Do not leave your shoes outside your bedroom door expecting them to be cleaned when you get up. There are no early morning alarm calls, or even early afternoon ones, and no all day breakfast!
