    I recently stayed at a hostel in Perth that was in need of a makeover, but there were still some positives about my stay. The location of the hostel was excellent, just a short walk into the city, making it convenient for exploring. The hostel itself was massive and spacious, with plenty of sofas to lounge on. The showers were decently clean and there was always plenty of hot water. The staff were friendly and lovely, providing a welcoming atmosphere. I would recommend this hostel for its location and spaciousness.

    Great location, walking distance to city and close to bars and clubs. Showers and toilets are fine with hot water. Met many good people.

    Felt very much at home, no complaints at all.

    I was really impressed with the value for money at this hostel. The room was comfortable and the AC was a lifesaver in the summer heat. The location was fantastic, with everything I needed within walking distance. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    The breakfast offerings could be improved with a better selection of dishes.

    The location is great, close to the main train station. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Despite the noise from the construction work across the road, we managed to have a comfortable stay. The continental breakfast, although limited, was a nice touch. I would recommend this hotel.

    Great location close to public transportation and city attractions. The breakfast in the morning was a nice touch. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    The bathrooms could use some updating and the water pressure was not the best.

    The location is perfect, with easy access to the city center and vibrant nightlife. the staff is friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any inquiries. the hostel offers ample communal areas, such as two living rooms with comfortable sofas and a room to play pool. there is a well-equipped kitchen available to prepare meals.

    The lack of soundproofing in the rooms can be a bit inconvenient for light sleepers.

    I recently stayed at The Old Swan Barracks for a few nights while exploring the city. The location was fantastic, making it easy for me to walk to all the major attractions and the train station. The staff were friendly and helpful, adding to the welcoming ambiance of the place. I also enjoyed the opportunity to socialize and meet new people in the common areas. Additionally, there was a convenient coffee machine available at the reception/bar.

    I recommend this hotel. The bathrooms, showers, and toilets were outdated and in need of improvement.

    Great location, friendly staff, powerful shower, considerate room switch for less sporty friend.

    Couldn't find any faults at all.
