Got picked up from bus and slept in a hot 5 share room. Didn't stay to eat in kitchen as it was too crowded and there was no fridge space. Luggage storage was overflowing.No lockers in the rooms. Got a lift to bus next day and left all the 20something European/English tourists to it.

Stayed in literally every hostel in Byron . I found this the best one, purely because of the staff! Really friendly and always willing to help! Also beds were really comfy, awesome sitting areas and good kitchen, ( pots and pans DEF need replacing..they are horrible but only downfall) Can borrow bikes for free and doors lock out the front...

The rooms were small but clean. Didn't seem as good quality as other YHA's. There are reading lights by each bed and a couple of plug sockets in each room but it seemed to have something lacking for the price. If I was staying in Byron again I think I'd try a different hostel but it may be that it's... More

I stayed at Cape Byron for 2 nights in October. There didn't seem to be a great choice of budget accomodation in town, so I ended up at the YHA, which I thought would be the safe choice. Oh how I was mistaken. There seemed to be a number of young travellers who were working at the hostel who sat... More

We booked a private room which had a double bed and single bed. There was no aircon and with the temperatures around 30degrees the nights were far too hot, there was a fan and windows to keep open but this meant noise and lead to almost unbearable sleeping conditions. The room was clean and the bathrooms clean but there were... More

We have been in many hostels before, but we found this YHA was definitely overpriced for what you get: we booked the only double room with private bathroom they have and paid what you normally pay for a 3-to-4-stars hotel. Room was small and very noisy, on grond floor, with very old furnishings and a small bed. Bathroom was ok... More

I stayed one night at Cape Byron YHA. I find this hostel really average. It is not as good as other YHAs, which does not impede the price to remain the same. Really too expensive for what you get. The people working there are so friendly, this is one of the main assest of Cape Byron YHA. They are really... More

It depends what you're after with this hostel. Make sure you check which YHA to start with, as there are two in Byron Bay. I really enjoyed our stay here, the owners were so welcoming and friendly, it has a real home from home feel. We had a 6 bed room but had it to ourselves (this kept happening in... More

I stayed here for two nights in Sept '12. I paid $28/night for a 5 share room. The rooms itself were average. The bathrooms were shared but I never had a problem waiting for a shower or toilet. The one thing that is kind of annoying with the rooms is that they all face out on to a courtyard/common area... More
