BUG Review
Echuca's YHA is a lovely hostel on a quiet residential street about a 10-minute walk from the town centre. It is a small hostel in a 140-year-old cottage, which makes it Australia's second-oldest hostel; but it is much better maintained that many 10-year-old hostels. It is a charming hostel with a cosy atmosphere. Facilities are limited to a small TV lounge with a fireplace, a small kitchen and laundry. It only has 10 beds so it pays to book ahead if you're planning on staying on a weekend. This youth hostel caters exclusively to short term guests (if you're in Echuca to work, then you'll need to stay at the big hostel on High Street).
Price Dorm bed $25-40 ($22.50-36 HI/YHA) Double room $60-80 ($54-72 HI/YHA) Prices are in Australian dollars and are inclusive of all taxes.
