The location is a little bit far from the center. The common room is big and clean, and the bed is clean also, but without plugs.

They return the money that they charged me twice without consent, after a month and after they tried to forced me to provide my credit card CCV (???). When I refuse for safety reasons, I was told "them we will not return your money". I cancel my card afterwards.

I stayed in a 4-bed and 8-bed dorm, the noise of the beds and doors are annoying, a little bit of oil would stop the noise. The laundry machines don't really wash. They use cold water and 25 min cycle. My clothes were not even washed properly.
Big kitchen and all you need to cook. Showers and toilets are clean. Good location, easy to get to the cbd by tram. Comfortable common areas. Reception 24 hs.

Close to QVM and a nice walk into the city.

There was one really rude staff member who kept insisting that he had to recheck our ID (despite it being checked upon arrival). He wasn’t polite about it and made me feel guilty even though I hadn’t done anything wrong. The other staff member tried his best to tell him that our ID had been checked but the the first staff member didn’t seem to care.
Just a really cheap place to stay. Good value for money.

We were given a room with more beds than booked, which was no problem. It just caused some confusion. Also, then men's bathroom was completely out of order, so my partner had to go to the third level every single time.
24/7 reception, check in at 3am was no problem at all. It is in walking distance of Southern Cross Station and the Free Tram Zone. There are lots of activities promoted by YHA so you don't get bored and also get inspiration for other places in Australia. Good heating, the beds are comfy af and wheelchair access is excellent.
