I decided to stay at this place after a good experience with the YHA in Ballarat, and after reading the great review in the Lonely Planet guide. I stayed in an 8-bed female dorm (about 29.50 AUD for 1 night), which was a bit narrow, but clean. The showers have wooden boards that you can stand on while or after... more

We stayed in the family room with an 10 & 12 year old. Beds were very comfortable. Easy access to central CBD and SkyBus. Hostel was quiet. Communal area was good - but the curry was lacking :) more

The hostel does have many facilities and is generally clean -- but bring ear plugs, and request a room that doesn't face Howard Street. All rooms are prone to noise from the internal corridor (room, bathroom, stairwell and lift doors... more

We stayed in this hostel for 7 nights and must say that the experience wasn';t as bad as what I thought it would be as this was the first time I've stayed at a Youth Hostel. I and my husband stayed in a double room which is unshared on the 3rd floor. Very basic, grey walls, small desk and shared... more

I loved this hostel. Yes it is expensive but its more like a hotel than hostel. We had a double room which was of better standard than some hotels I stayed in. It's a little bit away from the city, but there is a tram stop minutes away which takes you into the city centre. There are shops & bars... more
