Centrally located, squeaky clean YHA Hotel Hobart

An overnight stay, YHA Hobart was well located, short walk from the airport bus, across the road from a great bakery for quick breakfast and offered a good rate for a Friday night stay. Room was simple but squeaky clean with tea and coffee provided.

Estefania

Liked: Staff & service
Well located and good price-quality ratio. The staff is really friendly. The fact that you can have a whole bathroom for yourself feels luxurious. Just a couple of considerations: The bathrooms get flooded easily due to bad drainage but the staff was always on top of it all the time. Beware there is no elevator (though I’m certain is mentioned on their page) so if you have to carry your luggage you might have to do it through a couple set of stairs and fire doors. The amenities might be a little under the scale of people it can allocate, but at least during my stay, it was never an issue.

The hostel is in a great location within easy walking distance of Elizabeth street restaurants, the waterfront, Salamanca place, etc. The private room I stayed in was one of the nicest I have seen at any hostel. But it was the staff that really sets it apart. They went above and beyond what was expected, helpful, courteous, professional but very friendly. The staff is why I give the hostel an unequivocal 10 rating.
