Fremantle Old Fire Station Hostel

Dirtiest hostel I’ve been so hard. Rooms are packed and messy, couldn’t put my stuff anywhere. Top beds have no ladder, rooms smell bad and the beds smell like dust. Toilets are horrible

A different kind of hostel compared to the others — little by little you learn to feel at home. But be careful: if you’re looking for a quiet place without too many stimuli, this isn’t the right spot for you. My experience was positive mainly thanks to Daniel, the guy at the reception, who became a key figure for me at the hostel. He’s extremely good at understanding any discomfort and supporting you 100%. Without him, I don’t think I would have given this rating.

This is a full party hostel, and it’s completely unfair: people who want to party have all the rights, while anyone who needs rest has none. I paid a lot only to spend ten nights without sleeping. My room was next to the common area where a loud party happened every night. The guests were disrespectful, the place chaotic, and I didn’t even feel safe. Not recommended for anyone expecting rest or basic comfort.
