I had a private room. It was very quiet, had a fan and lovely view. Location is close to the beach and park with a quick walk to city centre. It’s a grand old building with lots of charm and very comfy bed. Dream sleep. Bathrooms clean.

If you like modern and flashy, this is not for you. It's a beautiful old building a stone's throw from the stunning Newcastle beach. Had a double room with fan & TV, even a view of the sea! Perfect for my needs. Will be back :)

The location is excellent. It's close by to the light rail station and bus stop. It's also close to the beach! Plenty of dining option nearby. The facilities are also great. I especially like the lounge area. Most importantly, I feel safe staying there as a solo female traveller. Feedback: The pillow case and the blanket in my single room has stains on them.

This is a drop of paradise i don’t know why more people don’t come here, the property is massive, old fashioned and well kept. Free surfboards and wet suits to borrow, the common areas are stunning and packed with things to do. If you're going up the east coast you have to stop here for a couple nights on your way up to brisbane or down to Sydney you won’t regret it. Seriously!

There was one lady staff who were so kind. Due to my knee injuries, she helped me look for a bottom bed bunk herself and found me the best shared room. Thank you so much indeed. I am still very grateful till this day. The areas around this YHA were really nice - refreshing and relaxing. I'm wishing to visit there again.

Good base, nice atmosphere

The place is clean with good facilities and a nice atmosphere. Minutes from shops, places to eat and the beaches. It’s an old building so can be noisy- windows rattle, pipes scream, floorboards creak and the rooms need to have slow shutters attached- doors slam all night. Good communal areas and friendly, helpful staff.

Nice hostel well located

Very well located, 3-4 min walk from the public transport, 5 min walk from the beach, 8 min from the grocery store. Overall clean, kitchen well equipped, staff were nice. The only negative thing would be that the wifi was only working in the living room, and if you were lucky, in your dorm if it was very close to the living room.

Some problems due to workmen staying at the youth hostel. Wandering through corridors in tight, skimpy underpants, noisy, unfriendly. Also urine all over toilet seat in men's bathroom/toilets on first floor.

Great location 5min from the beach, the building is definitely older, the rooms are quite stuffy (mine had no a/c) and my window was broken. Bathroom was clean and the staff I encountered friendly. Was hoping for a few more activities.
