Excellent location, and great price-service relation. The kitchen is outstanding and well provided, the bathrooms are always kept in great conditions. The rooms are reasonable in space, a little too hot on summer nights, and each bed has its own curtain and plug light for privacy and comfort. The staff is super friendly.

Definitely value for money but is not for anyone that’s looking for more than just a space to sleep. Oh, breakfast is rather disappointing, just cereal, milk, coffee & tea. I reckon you save $14 and get a warm sausage roll and coffee instead with that money.

Not a bad budget option

The YHA is at the budget end of the spectrum but they seem to have slipped, the prices have gone up but the facilities are not a spotless as they used to be.

Basic, economical, central accomm.

Often stay here bc of central location, economy but this time there were no towels in room, chip scraps on the floor beside bed, no spare blankets and i was cold. Not a big deal and i will continue staying here but the housekeeping needs to be better. Reception easy, expedient & friendly.
