1201 East Backpackers Reviews

Great starter hostel for my aussie adventure. Staff = amazing. Really helpful. Its on hay street so main street into the city really easy to get around right near a 24hr supermarket and next door to a cute little cafe. I would recommend people to stay here, the showers were pretty lame the rooms were good though.

I missed the lockers. All clothes of everybody were lying on everywhere in the room and couldn't be anywhere but there. Lockers would be fine. It is all small. You don't have a place where you can be alone. There was just one toilet which is too less. You couldn't lock the showers. the showers were too small, no place to put your clothes to keep it try. Room with window to the backyard. There was the smoking area and you couldn't open the window for fresh air.

Good place for staying one night or two, quite clean, staff friendly. Big spaces for kitchen and in rooms. Internet not too expensive regarding other backpackers (19$ for 3 days). But very poor character, no natural light, no window in rooms... Too much long term workers.

Is a good backpacker, very quiet, lot of workers, to much rules , warning and stuff like this

Staff were very helpful, a very nice laid back hostel!
