I love the atmosphere of YHA Melbourne. So many different travelers of all ages. Great open plan commercial kitchen that connects to the dining area so you feel connected to others while preparing food. Easy to use affordable lockers and just around the corner from Southern Cross Station making rail and airport connections so easy. Free trams outside the door for getting around Melbourne. The private en-suite room was a little bit expensive I thought at $192 for the night. Apart from that it suited my purpose of going to the Australian Open.

The location YHA Melbourne is absolutely great, just 10 min walk away from southern cross station and the staffs are always nice. The problem is, the dorms are very basic, you got your own bunk and locker, that’s all hahaaa

I missed my flight to Melbourne, so I haven't seen the place. I'm just happy I'm not currently staying in a hostel.

Old tradition bund be., I was woken several times at night. Bathrooms were cleaned but not thoroughly. Staff was nice but storing luggage costs money now.

The location of the accommodation is the only positive aspect, though it’s difficult to sleep at night due to the outside noise. I chose this place because I had a decent stay at YHA Sydney Central, but the Melbourne YHA was a completely different experience. The room I stayed in was honestly terrible—there was no air conditioning, just a fan that didn’t rotate and didn’t provide sufficient airflow. The bed was old, and I constantly feared it might collapse. One small movement caused the whole bed to shake, probably waking up my bunkmate, and I myself woke up several times during the night because of it. The shared bathrooms were unclean and unpleasant.
I understand it's budget accommodation, but I paid less in Sydney and had a much better experience in terms of cleanliness and staff interactions. The receptionist on March 12th was genuinely unfriendly, unhelpful, and had a condescending attitude. In the service industry, a dismissive tone and attitude are not ideal. Because of all these issues, I truly disliked my stay in Melbourne, and this place was the main reason for that.
