Perth Central Backpackers

Most of this post has been put down every now and then so I’m sorry about the mess…

After a long trip down to Perth I managed to book the cheapest hostel available online. I’ll admit it, seeing the room kinda made regret it. I’ve been to some hostels around the world but this is just bad even for me. The reception closed before I even got here so it seems like there is no one working here from around 20 to 08. I had emailed them in advance about my late check-in but all the info I got concerned how to get it, not how to set up here. When I finally found my room there was no marked bed or locker. The lockers were worn down, it was even a note about selling a padlock but there was nowhere to put it… There was even old cigarette butts in one of the lockers. No info about sheets or anything I had to just wing the whole thing. To top the whole thing of some random dude sleeping in what was supposed to be my bed. At least I could find a WiFi so I could nag here. Instead of sleeping in on a pretty basic bed I grabbed a couch. As expected the couch was too short for me but I managed to catch some unstable hours of sleep in the end.

Here comes the boom! I arrived back here at around 22 and there seems to be a nightclub just below us. As if my last wasn’t bad enough this could possibly be worse.

Only way to try to finish this up is with a somewhat conclusion on the hostel. I won’t say it’s shit but you should just be prepared for the standard. You do get what you pay for or maybe not even that. If you only need a bed in a central location and can sleep in a load of noise you’ll be good. If you need something more just stay away. It’s dirty from time to time. The balcony is mostly just for smoking weed. Trying to find a basic knife for your food can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Good thing is that the bathrooms are private and most of the people are great. Will I come back? If I have to, probably.
