Customer Reviews Darwin YHA
| 21 Apr 2013 Peter, Australia | 80% | |
| Yha darwin At about 2am 21/4 young girl with a key opened the back door and let a young tall surfie looking man into our room . He said he was there to sleep but because Martha and I booked the entire room and he had no key then we asked him to leave . He could have dangerous or a thief. After I went to room 25 or 26 or 28 and the boy there was very helpful and said all those rooms will open each others doors and so he got his key and opeened our back door 27 by wiggling key. So probably someone has doctored the locks and they should have been replaced. This makes a fool of your security and makes me feel insecure in yhas. Peter Holdenson

| The staff were wonderful and took my case to my upstairs room without being asked. I just thought it might be nice to have a picture in the room which looked rather bare. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay. | ||
