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 had a early flight and checked in for one night as its really close to Southern Cross station. Things were going well as YHA has good benefits and i enjoyed a 10% off from f&b, but my night became a nightmare. I don't know if I haven't been lucky, but I couldn't sleep due to a massive noise coming from outside. The noise was so annoying that I fell asleep really late. It seemed like a machine was on? I had the feeling to have a laundry machine in my ears. My room was 419, I will never ask to sleep there anymore. Also, if you need to leave your bags before checking in or after checking out, you have to pay and it was really annoying.

Good location and staff was helpful. But bed was terrible. If you moved a little bit the whole bed was making sounds.
