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.

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.

The room is clean but the stuff seems old, but with this price and at a very convenient location, it will be an excellent choice for budget traveller.
Just one thing that I think not good enough, there is no separate charger next to each bed.

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.
