Great location, and, very friendly staff (albeit during Covid, there was only one very friendly staff person). Covid made it less busy with fewer people.

Noisy and disturbing at night, might I say, without mentioning it to the management, yet!

Only one male and one female toilet/ bathroom open, in corners of ground floor. No sign of TV room. No one in office early morning or evening for local advice.

Rooms were clean and comfy however this was the worst kitchen of any YHA we have stayed in. Had to clean pots and pans and cooking areas prior to using. No crockery no cutlery. Food left in cupboards that have check out dates from 2 months ago. Shared bathroom was clean and warm.

I’ve stayed here many many times over the years and never had a problem. This time it had the atmosphere of a hostel for the homeless, which I understand may be the case due to the current climate but for a paying guest this is NOT good at all. Service was ok, disappointed no reception staff or tour bookings service. I didn’t use kitchen facility this time, spa bath was filthy, pool ok. Not many other female guests around I felt a bit intimidated but safe enough. This time I’m disappointed 😢

CUSTOMER REVIEWS ON YHA.COM.AU

YHA believes that you should be given a true picture of what other guests have to say about our hostels. That’s why when you give us your email address, you will be invited to rate your hostel stay upon checkout.

We review these ratings daily, and publish any comments whether they are good or bad. However, there are a few instances where we will not publish comments online:

INAPPROPRIATE OR OFFENSIVE COMMENTS

We will not publish inappropriate and/or offensive comments.

Inappropriate or offensive comments include, but are not limited to, personal harassment or discrediting of YHA staff, hate speech, sexually explicit language, swearing or references to illicit drug usage.

UNSUBSTANTIATED OR INCORRECT CLAIMS

We will not publish any comments that are not directly related to the hostel, or your experience during your stay.

Hostels will have the right to have negative comments removed if they can prove that claims are unsubstantiated, incorrect or you did not stay at the hostel that you are commenting on.

COMMENTS INCLUDING STAFF NAMES

We will not publish comments that include full staff names, irrespective of whether your comment is positive or negative.

First names of staff will be published in positive comments only.

If you make a negative comment, we will remove any reference to particular staff members.

CHANGED CIRCUMSTANCES IN HOSTELS

If there have been any major changes such as major hostel renovations, new management/owners, and we believe the previous ratings are no longer relevant, YHA will remove all submissions and the rating calculations will commence from zero.

Please note: YHA Australia will not enter into correspondence with the reviewer whether a comment is suitable or not.
