We really enjoyed our stay. The hostel is in a great location and we made full use of the kitchen and the pool table! The room and common areas could do with a more thorough clean but it was a good value stay for us as a family. We enjoyed walking from the hostel and seeing the beautiful views of the Blue Mountains.
This is a very good hostel in a convenient location. The staff were really welcoming and helpful. The hostel had everything I needed. The buffet breakfast was also good value.
A fantastic location and price point. Walking distance to everything you need and public transport on your doorstep. Easy parking options if you have a car. Staff are really friendly and social, made it feel like home while still being professional. Lots of space to relax after bit days filled with hiking and exploring!
A well located spot with wonderfully welcoming staff. Our family of 4 including two primary aged kids enjoyed playing ping pong and pool. Super convenient to yummy places to eat like The Yellow Deli across the road and Aldi, Woolworths and Big W just around the corner. A great shared kitchen, common room and dining space. Had a great community feel with fellow travellers being very considerate to each other.
We stayed in a private room with shared bathroom and it was great for a cheap price! Nothing flashy, but had everything we need. The social areas of this hostel are really good, and the kitchen is well stocked. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to stay close to Scenic World or 3 sisters (30 mins walk)
I like the YHA as an older person. I have traveled on my own my last 2 visits and I enjoy the communal space you don't feel isolated. Hotels are to impersonal.
