We had a private room with shared facilities and stayed for 1 night.
The showers and toilets were really clean and well maintained, we especially liked that you has to use your room key to get access to them.

Shared kitchen was great, had most thing but it did lack sharp knives.

Would recommend staying as location was great - close to beach and shops.

Pool looked inviting but was not utilised by us. Rooms were clean, there would be some advantage of a little bar fridge in each room which would make things a little easier. Overall though bedding was clean and confortable, bathrooms were very clean and the staff were very approachable and able to assist with all enquiries.

Stayed in deluxe room with own en-suite. Room was clean & comfortable. Ideal for my short-term stay (3 nights), albeit a little expensive for a hostel. Had to close bathroom door overnight as fan would stay on for some reason which was loud. Didn’t use the facilities on site but staff seemed friendly & overall the building was well maintained. Pool also looked clean but didn’t use it.

I stayed for a week and only once did someone come by and very quickly \"cleaned.\" Its a beach town, it was sandy and dirty. The vent in the bathroom doesn't turn on and when someone showered it steamed the entire room. No bathrooms on my floor besides the one in my room, which was always in use. Only one mirror and hook and they also were both in the bathroom.

Convenient & walkable to shops & dining around the property. Staff were friendly. Room is clean & bed is comfy. It lacked a proper table, even a small one will suffice cos there's no space to place small stuff.

We stayed here for a night with our children. The room was clean and comfortable, the kitchen and communal spaces were inviting and well set out. We didn’t swim in the pool because of our short stay, much to our kids dismay but it looked beautiful. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, beach and all for a very reasonable price. Would recommend. Would come back.

I had a private room, very modern bathroom and spacious. Bed was ok and couldn’t control temperature of the room so opened a window. I had a large spider crawl in and made its way to the ceiling so fly wire would be a good idea. I also got bitten by a mosquito so my last night there I didn’t sleep well because of the visiting insects.

Friendly staff and good facilities. The bed was super comfy, and we slept well! The ventilation in the room unfortunately wasn't great, and having the window locked meant we couldn’t get fresh air in. Overall it was good value and convenient though, and we would stay again!

Beds are super comfortable and all amenities are new with a clean aesthetic, had a noisy bunk mate that truly ruined my stay here. Told the staff at front desk about what happened that night during checkout and nothing was resolved just a sorry. Otherwise would recommend staying here

Great base for the beach

In a 4 bed dorm with en suite.
Room was clean , large, luggage lockers for each bunk.

A/c was the quietest I'd stayed in on this month long trip.

Although lots of schoolies staying, the large, immacutaly clean kitchen and dining area coped with the numbers.

This is a modern building and is an ideal, affordable place to stay in Byron Bay

Comfortable Stay

First time I have stayed at a hostel/backpackers, the experience was excellent. Friendly staff at check in, room was clean, and comfortable bed. The location was also very good, close to everything so can walk easily anywhere.

Perfect location and atmosphere

We loved the atmosphere of the place, and the great area provided to cook and chill. Everyone left it really clean and was respectful to others space. The rooms were a good size, clean and we had A/C in our private room plus a fan, so nice and cool. Would highly recommend for couples and singles

We stayed in the premium double ensuite with aircon and it was fantastic, me and my husband loved it! modern, clean and quiet. So glad we went with this! The pictures don’t do it justice! Choose this place over the dodgy looking place you won’t regret it

A very good experience

The rooms were very clean and the people that works there was very friendly and helpful regarding any questions we have!

The only disappointment was that I had food I brought specifically for a birthday and stored/dated so that it won’t be rid of during our stay with the YHA and this lasted 1 night and our food was no where to be found.

Other than that the renovations are really well put and the location is superb!

I stayed in a private room. I specially booked a private room with wifi because I had to work remotely. The room had absolutely no natural light whatsoever so you couldn’t tell day from light . Because the window was so small and also boxed off from the outside, there was also no phone reception whatsoever and no internet - it would disconnect every couple of minutes so I couldn’t work . Reception offered me $10 Compensation. Other than that the room was super clean and nice.

Clean, Friendly with Youthful Vibes

We stayed for 2 nights on the 3rd floor. Very happy with the room, shower and bed. Lift was great, friendly staff on the counter when checking in / out and asking about parking as there is street parking meters which we didn't see when we first arrived. (no ticket though)
Friday night was noisier than Saturday but to be expected in a backpacking accom. We enjoyed the youthful vibe it gave.
Love the area - One does wonder about the conditions of the roads in Byron Bay Generally.

Great Place, not one for communal living but this was a nice experience. The en-suite female dorm was very comfortable, and the group guest experiences were great. There was a BBQ night and a Pizza night, I went on a snorkle trip at a discount thanks to the YHA. I did laundry and cooked my own food, It is great for long term travelers. Sure you have to pay extra for WiFi in your room, but in my mind, equal to a bottle of wine to last you a few days.. money well spent.

Modern hostel, close to town

Stayed in Byron for one night for a gig at the Northern and the YHA was ideal. Clean, well presented, modern and tidy, it’s an easy 10 min walk from the centre of town. All for an excellent price. Not sure if it would suit longer stays as, being a hostel, it lacks some of the in room facilities of hotels; fridge, iron etc, but perfect for a weekend or short visit

Best YHA

Fantastic YHA, accomodation far exceeded our expectation. The room was modern and practical, few adjustments I would make; light above the mirror in the bathroom and USB ports for charging in one electric point. The pancake breakfast was delicious overall great accomodation and would highly recommend.

Modern and simple

New room with modern and simple style. Clever idea to use small stool as bedside table. We use it to put our shower stuffs in the shower room.

However, it would be more convenient if there’s a desk under TV. Double bed is good size for people who under 170cms tall. Wall Fan is practical but not quiet match the room style.

Would love to stay next time.

Great place to stay in Byron!

It's a YHA so there's a high standard. Down the block from Woolworths, and a short walk to the beach, as is everything in Byron. They offer a free pancake every morning or 3 for $1 which is a great deal. They also offer a lot of other good deals such as free movie night or a free walk to the lighthouse. Not a party hostel but it is great for meeting new people.

If you're looking for a good deal (and who isn't) go have dinner at Cheeky Monkey's down the block after 7pm. You can get a $5 cheeseburger and fries with your YHA room key and you also get a free mini beer. #win!

The staff were helpful and friendly. I enjoyed it and definitely recommend it!
