Very good place ! ##### Sandrine Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### John 14 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Very well located, cheap and cheerful. It's a very old property and the standard of accommodation reflects that. We had a private room with ensuite which was very dated, but suited our needs for a single night. Staff were friendly and helpful. Be aware that there is no TV in the rooms or anywhere on the property that I could see. If that's important to you then this won't suit. There are generous shared common areas, kitchen etc. It's more of a young person's venue/backpacker style of accommodation (we are retirees), but fine for a night or two if older, families etc. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tommy 25 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Best location, walking distance to all amenities and popular attractions and walking trails.

The rooms are cozy and the breakfast is simple yet delicious. The service is also really good. Flavia was a great help and her colleagues were really kind as well. We particularly loved the hall where we could read and eat. Really really great.

Easy walk from train station. Buses to echo point are a 2 min short walk away. You can also walk to echo point (30mins). YHA rooms are clean. Building and facilities are a little dated and could do with a upgrade. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Apr 2024 Liked: Room comfort #### Average hostel in a gorgeous historic building Reasonably priced and very central. Good breakfast, but extortionately priced by student standards ($12 I think). I couldn’t afford it so brought some small groceries from the supermarket. Staff were friendly, but a bit checked out. Could definitely use a deep cleaning as they smell like a locker room. Bathrooms were reasonably clean. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Charming old lodge Generally clean and comfortable hostel housed in a very old historic 19th century building, which of course shows signs of its age with creaking floors throughout. The building itself is beautiful and definitely has a lot of character and charm. Pros: Very central, less than a 10 minute walk from the train station, and only one block from the bus to Echo Point & the Three Sisters. Cons? Expensive breakfast for a hostel, and no free tea/coffee (which unfortunately is the norm in Australia). Diverse clientele of all ages. Common areas were clean, inviting, but the dorm rooms could definitely use some refurbishment and smelled of sweat. Overall, a reasonably comfortable stay and I would consider it for a repeat visit. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sebastian 17 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very enjoyable place to stay. ##### Sebastian Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Isla & Casita Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Batehaven-Hotels-The-Isla.h78230201.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozzie Pozzie Backpackers](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Macquarie-Hotels-Ozzie-Pozzie-Backpackers-YHA.h25994908.Hotel-Information) > > [NRMA Blue Dolphin Yamba Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yamba-Hotels-Blue-Dolphin-Holiday-Resort.h3103292.Hotel-Information) > > [Bay Breeze Boutique Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Batemans-Bay-Hotels-Bay-Breeze-Boutique-Accommodation.h9307003.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lord Byron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Byron-Bay-Hotels-The-Lord-Byron.h2646995.Hotel-Information) > > [Idyllic Farm Cottage with Outdoor Bath Under the Stars](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manildra-Hotels-Idyllic-Farm-Cottage-With-Outdoor-Bath-Under-The-Stars.h28102767.Hotel-Information) > > [Tasman Holiday Parks - Merool on the Murray](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moama-Hotels-Merool-Holiday-Park.h9629141.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tamworth Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamworth-Hotels-The-Tamworth-Hotel.h18684340.Hotel-Information) > > [Mirage Whitsundays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Mirage-Whitsundays.h11066236.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sanctuary at Paradise Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jervis-Bay-Hotels-The-Sanctuary-At-Paradise-Beach.h20069732.Hotel-Information) > > [Arajilla Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lord-Howe-Island-Hotels-Arajilla-Retreat.h1052267.Hotel-Information) > > [Desert Gardens Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-Desert-Gardens.h67183126.Hotel-Information) > > [Mantra Twin Towns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tweed-Heads-Hotels-Mantra-Twin-Towns.h1862508.Hotel-Information) > > [Burke and Wills Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moree-Hotels-Burke-And-Wills-Motor-Inn.h978570.Hotel-Information) > > [Samurai Beach Bungalows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anna-Bay-Hotels-Samurai-Beach-Bungalows-Port-Stephens-YHA.h12456606.Hotel-Information) > > [Broughton Cottage - Pudding Hill Farm, Berry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Foxground-Hotels-Broughton-Cottage-Pudding-Hill-Farm.h23586192.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrigan's Hunter Valley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Harrigans-Irish-Pub-Accommodation.h1662165.Hotel-Information) > > [Snowy Wilderness](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ingebirah-Hotels-Snowy-Wilderness.h4316653.Hotel-Information) > > [Seahorse Inn Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boydtown-Hotels-Seahorse-Inn.h3910114.Hotel-Information) > > [Albury Manor House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albury-Hotels-Albury-Manor-House.h445455.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Haven White Sands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jervis-Bay-Hotels-Holiday-Haven-White-Sands.h27097344.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Box Cottage - Tuross Head](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tuross-Head-Hotels-Red-Box-Cottage-Tuross-Head.h30666798.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [The Robertson Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Robertson-Hotels-The-Robertson-Hotel.h4580959.Hotel-Information) > > [Oaks Lake Crackenback Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Crackenback-Hotels-Lake-Crackenback-Resort-Spa.h11290088.Hotel-Information) > > [Farm Getaway Southern Highlands, Pet Friendly, Scottish Highland cattle, alpacas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/High-Range-Hotels-Somerton-Barn.h66725167.Hotel-Information) > > [Crystalbrook Byron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Byron-Bay-Hotels-Crystalbrook-Byron.h2650066.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) ---
