Billabong Backpackers Resort

Not bad. Everything u can think of for a party hostel. If u like zen & quietness, this is not really the place, but if u love making friends, especially with Europeans, then this is the perfect place. Breakfast food selections can be better though.

A lot of other backpackers staying with so can get a little squeeze in the kitchen. No bowl, plates and utensils provided which is a minus

Location is nice, it's about 20 minutes downhill from the East Perth Station, which also has a direct line to the airport. It is also very close to a Woolies super market and BWS liquor store. Every morning they put out bread to make toast or PBJ. They also provide cereal and milk. There is a $10 ASD rental fee for a dining set, but it is refundable. The private room was spacious enough, had a kettle and mugs, tea and coffee supplies. One minor inconvenience is that WiFi is only in PUBLIC areas. Staff is very nice and helpful. With their recommendation we booked a ferry to Rottnest island to see the Quoakkas, and we were picked up and dropped off at the hostel. Kitchen facilities are also huge and well stocked, so it is very easy to prepare your own meals.

I could turn a blind eye to the damn cockroaches crawling around the kitchen, but not to these Italian/French people. Loud, filthy, and rude — the full set. Honestly, I’m hitting a wall wondering what the hell I’m doing here. The Wi-Fi? Useless. Walk a few steps away from the lobby and it’s gone. Even in the lobby, it crashes the moment a few more people show up. The bathroom reeks of bleach like they just dump it in to avoid proper cleaning. Judging by how nasty the place is, there’s no way I’d dare touch that outdoor pool. I don’t even know if it’s the pillowcase or the sheets, but ever since I got here, my skin’s been wrecked. Shower pressure? Pathetic. Can’t even wash properly. Bottom line: even if you paid me, I wouldn’t come again ever.

My room (double room) was amazing: very comfortable, big and clean. I loved that they also offered the chance to leave the baggage in a locked room for the entire afternoon.

Booked a twin room because I was travelling with my brother but when checking in the sheets hadn’t been changed and there was only one bed in the room. Good location and breakfast.

No wifi connection in rooms No Tv in rooms No fridge in rooms

The overall experience is good. The amenities are amazing, they got big kitchen and even outdoor swimming pools! But the location is quite far away from city centre that it takes 20 minutes for you to walk to the train station. But there’s a large supermarket nearby that you call grad all the food and necessities you need. You can also choose to take the bus to the city centre as the bus stop is just in front of the hostel. They also offer cereal and bread as free breakfast.
