Stay in Byron Bay

I stayed three nights in a 5-bunk dorm. The hostel is a good base to explore the surrounding area. Don't miss Wategos beach, Cape Byron lighthouse, Nimbin and Mullumbimby. All great destinations.

The place was good, clean bathrooms, friendly staff. Unfortunately though, I didn’t get much sleep due to other people walking around throughout the night talking really loudly. Not your fault. Thanks

2/10 Poor

Unlike other YHA hostels , this one is twice as expensive and is full of loud and arrogant people who show no accountability to their drunk behaviour and do not respect others who are staying there. Very hard to get some sleep. Better off sleeping in a car.
