| i was very disappointed with the hostel in perth. it was very poorly laid out. the size of the room was very pathetic. had there been other accomodation available i would not have stayed there.
the only greeting that i got from the staff was for my MONEY lol to pay for the deposit and room. after nearly 20 hours of travelling was sure they could have waited.
when i asked by email what bus to get from the airport or direction, i was told 37 i think from a member of staff ben.
definately would not recomend this hostel and will not stay again. | ||

| The hostel is quite crowded esp in the evening @ the kitchen. If you stay by the kitchen, you will smell multicultural food all around.Sometime it is fun the see lots of people there. If you are lucky stay right by the pub, you will rock at least half of the night. | ||

| Exceptionally noisy as right beside railway line - trains coming through all night sounding their whistles -even with good earplugs a very disturbed night.
The guy on Reception when I checked in was rather off-hand and unfriendly. | ||

| Being next door to the railway station banished any prospect of a morning lie in !!!!! | ||
| 23 Aug 2011 Lee, England & Wales | 100% | |
| A great modern hostel, decent kitchen, reading room, even a gym, the bar downstairs is a good place to meet people, the shuttle bus stops opposite and its right in the city centre... | ||
