BUG Review
Batemans Bay YHA is a small hostel with a basic kitchen and TV lounge. The accommodation is clean but basic with old lino floors and cheap furniture. It is part of a larger caravan park and guests have use of the swimming pool and barbecue areas. It is in a residential street a short walk from the town centre.
Price Dorm bed $25-27 ($22-24 HI/YHA) Double/twin room $55 ($48 HI/YHA) Camping $12 per person Prices are in Australian dollars and are inclusive of all taxes.
imagine you arrive at 9.15 pm and the manager tells youthe hostel closes at 9 pm ... then you try to talk and talk ... but nothing do to. the hostel stays closed for us, travellers. so we went to a motel close to the yha,and we could spent the night there.

Not what you would expect from a YHA hostel. No actual building or guest house, just a few very ancient little caravans dotted round a pretty crammed caravan park. Not that I have anything against caravans, but these were not what I would call clean or comfortable.Shared amenaties were alright, and there was a camp kitchen. You pay here, more than I think the place is worth.
