Description: This was the best hostel in Perth by far. I'll have to give it the Nomad hostels as they seem to win every time!
You are right in the center of Northbridge, so stumbling home from pubs at the end of the night is quite quite easy, and you can simply follow your neighbors...
I don't know if it was simply the name of the place or what, but I was the only American in a hostel full of British. I think there were two Swiss and one German, but other than that, it was all British. Not that that's bad, just something to keep in mind if you are trying to get away from what you have at home...
We stayed in Room 12, which was the best, as it was a six-bed dorm right over the front door so our windows opened onto the street and we could see who was coming and going at all times.
The bar downstairs has
GREAT deals at happy hour - only $2 for a Coldie, and tequila shots were only $4 each. Other than chillin' at the bar, there isn't much that the hostel does for you to keep you there, but then again, Perth is a big city that deserves to be explored.
There is 24-hour Internet access at $1/10 minutes, a swimming pool, and air-conditioning in all the rooms. There is also a brand-new section that has been added on, but the rooms are a bit far away from what's going on. If possible, ask to be in the old section...
