Guest The Pom Queen Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 We seem to have quite a few members out there who are already or about to backpack around OZ. I thought this forum would be great to put any work contacts in, let us know which hostels are any good and which to avoid. Etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritChickx Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Perth - Britannia on Williams is good. Ozi Inn not so good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoot Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Adelaide YHA - supposed to be good but I found it a bit run down and they were rather up themselves, and also limit the time you can stay there (I think it is 2 weeks). Shakespear Backpackers (also in Adelaide) - too many beds to a room and the cleaning was rather haphazard but not as stuck up as the YHA.

Nooooooo don't say that - we're booked in for our first two weeks in Oz there! I've heard nothing but good things about it (searching high and low for all reviews/thoughts online) especially how clean it is :cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoot Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 It is fine you are not going to a dump - it is in my book probably about a 6 out of 10 just over the minimum standard. If you get someone on the desk who is friendly you could probably stretch that to a 6.5. Bonus is that it is in the city so there is no travelling.
