YHA Apollo Bay Eco

Super central. Everything was reachable on foot.

We had a very pleasant stay at YHA Apollo Bay. The location is great, just a short walk from the beach and close to shops and restaurants. The hostel was clean, well-maintained, and had a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. We especially appreciated the layout of the spaces, with cozy and inviting common areas well separated from the sleeping areas. The whole place was filled with natural light, thanks to the large windows that bring the surrounding nature inside. The staff were attentive and welcoming, making everything easy during our stay. Overall, a great option for a comfortable and affordable stay along the Great Ocean Road. We would happily stay here again.

WiFi could be improved

Great location - absolutely amazing common areas!! So spacious. Mostly clean throughout.

There was no oil, salt or pepper- this is a hostel basic!! The beds were rickety - and no curtains, which for me is fundamental.the rooms needed a deep clean as there were someone else’s belongings and toiletries underneath my bed - so more attention to detail would be good

No hot water for shower 2 days running. Luke warm at best then ran cold on and off while showering. Waited at start 3-4 minutes to see if hot water would come but not to be. For a town with limited water and water restrictions having to waste so much for hot to come needs some looking into for sustainability and costs.
