Fior United States of America

Friendly and helpful staff. Friendly guests. Comfortable beds. Hot showers with great water pressure. Lovely rooftop terrace with great view of the city. Close to public transport, supermarkets, and Victoria Market.

Charlene Australia

Great value for money, staff were friendly and helpful. We stayed in a Private family room with an ensuite, the room was clean and tidy and great for a place to stay. The rooftop view of the city was worth checking out and would be a great place to chill out on a nice night. Communal areas were comfortable. Cheap breakfast option available. If you have a high vehicle and can't fit in the carpark, there was plenty of street parking available, with no overnight time limit.

Nicole Australia

Great and cheap accommodation facility with a large common area and huge kitchen

  • Hi, Is it available a pick up and drop of service from Tullamarine airport? I’ve an early flight, so is there a specific timetable for it for the shuttle service?
    G'Day - When you arrive in to Tullamarine airport, you simply need to take the Skybus to Southern Cross station. You can then ask for a connecting transfer to the hostel. It is possible to book a shuttle bus to the airport from the hostel for $20. Please see reception for more information.
    Asked about: Bed in 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room with Shared Bathroom • Answered on August 22, 2019
  • How much is a taxi cost from Melbourne Tullamarine to metro YHA ??
    This could cost approx $50-$60. We recommend catching the SkyBus which runs every 15mins from 4:30am-midnight. It drops you to Southern Cross Station in CBD and then only short 5mins Uber/Taxi to Melbourne Metro YHA.
