I had quite a mixed experience at the hostel. While I met some amazing people and made lifelong friends, the overall environment was quite chaotic with lots of noise and some unclean facilities. The location was spot on, as I could easily walk to the beach and the local sights, making it quite convenient. However, if you're looking for a peaceful getaway, this might not be the best choice for you.

I had a great time at this hostel, which has a perfect blend of social energy and relaxing spots. The atmosphere is vibrant, especially with activities like BBQ nights and pool games. However, it can get noisy, especially on the first floor, and the kitchen could use a few more cooking utensils. Overall, if you're looking for a fun place to meet people while in Fremantle, this is a solid option!

I stayed in a six-bed female dorm that was spacious and clean, but I noticed some rooms are quite small with limited storage. It’s a mixed bag depending on what room you get.

This hostel truly surprised me with its welcoming atmosphere and vibrant community. The amenities like the pool and game area were fantastic, offering plenty of options for entertainment. While I enjoyed my time there and met some incredible people, the communal areas could use more regular cleaning, and it can get a bit noisy at times due to activities. Overall, a worthwhile experience for anyone looking to make connections while traveling.

I had a unique experience at this hostel, which is housed in a historic building with a lively atmosphere. While the location is fantastic and the bathrooms are very clean, the rooms could use some improvement regarding space and amenities. The lack of showers on my floor was a big downside, and the Wi-Fi situation was disappointing. Overall, it’s a social place with great potential, but it definitely has its flaws.
