On first inspection this Hostel is slightly confusing and seems a little all over the place. But give it a day and you'll be won over. The staff are wonderful can't do enough for you . The atmosphere is friendly the rooms are clean and comfortable and there are bathrooms and a laundry and a kitchen on every floor. The ground level has a computer area a vending machine and an outdoor drinking area supreme where most nights the sound of music and a blend of young excited youths can be heard talking to their new friends. The dormitories are fairly typical the budget room is as it states budget and the double and single private rooms are a good size.
There is a $40 key deposit when you check in
Cheapest place to stay in 4 bed female. The kitchen and eating area was dirty msinly due to overcrowding of stuff. Some people don't wash up which makes it worse. The dorm was clean and the bathrooms and showers too. Reception was manned all the time which is rare. I'm staying another 2 times after my tour and I'm upgrading to a single room on my last stay as it is the cheapest in Perth.
The Property and its Location wad awesome. However its a bit noisy in the evening as it is surrounded by Pubs, Bars and Restaurants.
Helpful staff and very clean Bathrooms and toilets. However Old smelly room carpets and Noisy Old wooden Corridor floor needed to be changed ASAP.
It was overcrowded too.
I only planned to stay one night, but it was so comfortable that I ended up staying a week. It's conveniently located near the station, and the staff are kind. The large kitchen makes it easy to interact with other residents. I had a comfortable stay, like being part of a family.
Aside from Perth Underground being a bit confusing to get out of, this hostel is very easy to find and a very easy walk passing by lots of affordable food places, convenience stores, and pharmacies. Check-in and check-out was quick and painless. Courtyard area is nice if incredibly noisy, but I couldn't hear any noise from my room. Windows are only single glaze though so you can definitely hear party people on the street. Beds are fine, not super plush or super comfy but better than a fold-out couch or camp bed. Shared bathroom acceptable, good shower pressure. Wish the light was a bit brighter as it was hard to do make-up. One sink wasn't working but there's a few of them. Room came with a little table, clothes rack, and drawer under the bed for some storage, which was nice.
I am not the typical hostel guest and would not stay here long term as it can be very noisy. Stopping here for one night only was perfectly serviceable and very affordable.
I did not feel unsafe staying by myself as a lone female traveller. Anyone staying here long-term should be aware that this is truly a hostel with all that implies.
