Guest Reviews
- simona (7/5): - Posizione centrale, letto e cuscino comodo che è una rarità negli ostelli Dimensioni nelle stanze minuscolo, bagni non sono il massimo
- Chris (8/5): -
- Burak (6/5): For location is ok but So crowded and not so clean place for stay - Good location from Perth Station. Easy to access from Airport Staff didnt inform about trains from Airport
- Jul (5/5): - L'emplacement Le style du batiment Les sanitaires etaient grands et propres La chambre etait sale, vieille moquette avec crasses dans les coins La cuisine etait dans un état lamentable
- Ling (7/5): But overall, I honestly think it’s really good! (The bathrooms are very clean 😁) I’d definitely recommend staying here - Compared to a typical hostel, the accommodation is actually quite clean overall! However, the kitchen fridge and freezer don’t really have enough space. It looks like there are too many people using them, so it’s hard to keep everything organised.
- Lucas (8/5): Good value for money - Good value for money Some times can be noisy
- Baptiste (4/5): - Location, facilities Cleanliness, noise, room (no electrical outlet, no locker, no bed ladder, no curtains, bed unstable)..
- Carles (8/5): -
- Melina (6/5): - Big outside area, nice staff, and central location Dirty kitchen, but a lot of people who don't clean their dishes, a bit hard to get up the top bunk
- Roberto (1/5): - Position People screaming and running on stairs at 3am, squeaky floor, impossible to rest properly
- Rafael (8/5): -
- Yukino (2/5): - Location Unfriendly staff receptionist and a worker who was painting room door. Lockers were broken and people used more than one so I couldn’t use. It was very noisy though after midnight.
- Ben (7/5): comfy. like a pair of old slippers - location. price nil
- Ben (7/5): homey - friendly nil
- peter (10/5): Enjoyed my stay and will stay again for sure! - Good place to stay and happy with pretty much all aspects.
- BangVu (7/5): -
- BangVu (7/5): OK to crash for a few nights in Perth. - Perfect location, right in the middle of the CBD. Near the metro hub, easy to move around. Welcoming and helpful staff It seems a lot of backpackers/ uber eats guys live there long terms. Kind of a mess in the hallway with their shoes and uber eats/ doordash bags. Not the best for cleanliness, but I guess you get what you pay for. Can't expect a 4-star experience when paying for 2-star one lol. I'm ok with my stay with no complaints.
- AXELLE (8/5): -
- Emilie (4/5): Dont go there - The bathrooms were cleaned every day Wifi is good First the rooms are really dirty. We had to ask the reception for them to just vacuum the room. There is not enough plug for everyone in the room Very noisy during the night, it is under a bar so loud music but also the other guests do not care about the noise, they are shouting at each other at 3am in the doorway
- Rose (7/5): -
- Samir (5/5): -
- Carles (8/5): - Muy buen ambiente Hay noches que la gente se emborracha y hace demasiado ruido. La cocina no tiene suficiente espacio para la cantidad de gente que se queda en ese hostal. Te tienes que esperar a que no sea hora punta.

- Jakub (10/5): - All the best !
- Alice Maya (5/5): -
- Martina (1/5): A nightmare, shameful - Absolutely nothing In 4 nights I slept something like 3 hours per night because of the noise. The rule about don’t disturb after 10 PM was never respected by the other guests, and above all, the hostel staff never did anything to enforce the rules. Nobody cared. I'm talking about people singing, playing loud music, running around, and standing in front of the rooms talking loudly until 2 or 3 AM every night. The room was a hole with no window, dirty, and with bunk beds that creaked at the slightest movement. The worst hostel experience of my life. And considering all this, the price is absolutely too high for a hostel in these conditions. If you need simply to sleep, it's not the right place.

- Jasmine (6/5): -
- Paula (8/5): Good value for money. - Location was perfect. Bed was good. Showers were hot. Kitchen needed a deep clean as did all the hallways, the common area, and the outdoor area. I did not expect there to be so many permanent residents.
- Chiara (7/5): - Für eine Nacht völlig ausreichend. Für den Preis ist es eine gute Unterkunft und sehr Zentral gelegen.
- Brenda (4/5): -
- Li (10/5): -
- Michelle (6/5): I enjoyed staying here apart for the heat that week. Small room was suitable for me and handy to the CBD - Location was great and easy check in. Single room was nice and tidy. No aircon in room, small fan didn’t quite do it when it’s unbearably hot. I believe aircon is under consideration
- Ouar (10/5): -
- Bavieri (5/5): - La posizione Il rumore costante e continuo
- Yahav (4/5): -
- Javens (8/5): Britannia - The character of the huge building and service was great. Its a massive place. Loved it.
- MINHYEONG (10/5): If you are looking for short term stay, perfect - Super kind staffs and good for budgets :)) and the best part is its location!
- Daisy (7/5): - passable kitchens disgusting, weird passive aggressive signs dotted about, not social / more long term stayers are here
- Dominic (4/5): - Place was okay and very cheap and has all the usual facilities. Staff very friendly and easy check in and out processes. It’s very central. No ladder on bunk beds, beds very creaky so every time someone moves it’s waking someone up. It’s in a very busy area for bars etc so is very noisy area if that’s a problem for you.
- Si-Minh (8/5): Thanks for friendly staff - Thanks for friendly staff NIL
- david (10/5): good job - its close to the city and close to everything around that you want to be there is nothy to like about good place
- Benjamin (9/5): -
- Ahmed (8/5): -

- Simone Bet (7/5): - Posizione centralissima, staff gentile e disponibile. Cucina e bagni grandi. Un ottimo posto per conoscere viaggiatori e condividere esperienze. Anche nelle camere private ci sono molti rumori, si sente tutto, dalle persone nei corridoi alla musica dal bar sottostante. La cucina è molto frequentata quindi è spesso sporca ed in disordine, ma con un po' di spirito di adattamento si può fare tutto
- Chris (8/5): -
- Brenda (6/5): - Close to train station. It was as advertised
- Elsa (5/5): - Back room on the upstairs verandah is quiet. Although the discarded clothes free for others to use could be put in a box or hung up on a clothes rack instead of strewn across the floor in a large bundle The lack of cleanliness of the rooms. Had to move rooms twice before there was an acceptably clean room. Although moving was no trouble
- SANDRA SERENA (4/5): Mucha gente - La ubicación y el staff , fueron muy amigables y es fácil llegar en tren y bus, en el medio del la ciudad Muy sucio , debajo de mi cama estaba lleno de mugre , la cocina es imposible sentarse en las metas, hay demasía gente , tuve que matar una cucaracha en la sala. Mi havitasion estaba en el tercer piso , y el calor era insoportable , teniamos 2 ventiladores de pie que no ayudaban en nada , era inhumano star ahí ,
- Yue (7/5): -
- Yue (7/5): - It boasts a prime location, close to bus stops and the city center. Numerous restaurants and cafes are also nearby. The bathroom is a bit old. There's room for improvement.

- AngéliqueMle (6/5): -
- glenn (2/5): -
- Janadhi (7/5): AVERAGE - The location is great, close to the city and very convenient. Overall, everything was okay during my stay. However, I had requested a lower bed in advance due to a herniated back, and unfortunately this request wasn’t accommodated. The property also has quite a lot of stairs, which made moving around a bit challenging for me 😅 That said, I only stayed for two nights, so it was manageable. Aside from that, the stay was fine and the location is definitely a plus. I had requested a lower bed in advance due to a herniated back, and unfortunately this request wasn’t accommodated. The property also has quite a lot of stairs, which made moving around a bit challenging for me 😅

- Hao (10/5): 优越的位置和有趣的住客，高性价比之选。 - 一切都很棒。地理位置位于市中心，步行可达市区任何景点，100米就可抵达免费的猫巴士。整个旅馆非常多来自世界各地的住客，包括一些当地工作的外卖员和街头艺人，与他们交流非常有趣。厨房设施一应俱全。房费也很划算，是简单出行的性价比选择。 一切都很棒。唯独洗漱间没有吹风机？希望可以配备。

- Nina (1/5): -
- Alice (3/5): -
- Oddmund (6/5): - Location. Big kitchen, but not enough storage for food, and not enough kitchenware.
- Max (8/5): - Great location, and my private room was very good value for money.
- Neal (8/5): -
- Anselm (8/5): - The bathroom was clean and the blankets and pillow were pretty nice and comfy to sleep on. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Generally the kitchen area could've been cleaned up and organised a bit more. Yeah its a shared dormitory but I feel like the owners should have someone to clean it up as well (just a general clean. The bed was pretty squeaky. So i had to try my best not to move so much to disturb the other guests. Just keep in mind that you are sleeping with other people in the room. When I was there, it smelled like herbal medicine (idk who was using it) and people kept on turning off the aircon when it was really hot. So you'd have to put up with that.
- Ricky (2/5): Terrible, you can't sleep!!!!!!!! - If you want a central location with a good spot, it's fine. The place is dirty; there are shoes, Uber Eats boxes, towels, etc. all over the hallways; the toilet bins are overflowing with toilet paper; there's too much noise from people until late; the people who seem to live there for weeks make too much noise, banging the doorknobs when opening and closing; there's noise from the bars next door until late; it's a terrible place. You really can't sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- Chengkuang (5/5): 如果不怕吵，住這裡很方便又便宜。 - 離火車站近，附近有很多餐廳和酒吧可選擇。 走路時木地板會有聲音。沐浴乳和洗髮精不在淋浴間裡，而是放在洗手台，不方便。由於附近很熱鬧，週末晚上會比較吵。
- Enrico (8/5): -
- chloe (7/5): - L’ambiance En soit l’auberge est bien. Nous n’avons juste pas eu de chance. Nous avons pris un dortoir avec 3 lits et la personne avec qui nous étions était très sale et il y avait ses affaires partout. Mais ce n’est pas de la faute de l’hôtel. À part ça les sanitaires sont propres et l’auberge est très accueillante
- Rebekah (9/5): Loved it! Would stay again! - I booked well in advance and got a really great price. It was by far the cheapest in the city area and I didn’t have high hopes, but it was really great! The beds were so comfy. I was in a private room with a bunk bed and it was nice to have some extra space. From what I could see, it looked like every room has its own window. Bathrooms were clean. This accommodation really did exceed my expectations given how cheap it was. They have no parking on site, which is fine as there is a public car park across the road which is open 24/7 on weekend (closes late during the week). Parking added approx $70 to our three night stay, but this accommodation was at least $100 cheaper than anywhere else we found so it was worth it.

- Sam (8/5): Was good for one night. - Close to city. Close to nightclubs and street food. The cheapest in Perth but still not worth it. Squeaky beds and random people now and then.
