Auberges de jeunesse de Australie-Occidentale, Australie

Très enthousiasmé par ce séjour spécial car il était indiqué dans les anciennes installations pénitentiaires et je devais tenter cette expérience. J'hésitais à partager la chambre avec d'autres, alors nous avons pris l'unité entière par nous-mêmes. La façade et les espaces communs environnants sont agréables et chaleureux. L'unité unique utilise les unités cellulaires tandis que l'unité que nous avons prise est une aile nouvellement érigée, donc ce n'est pas l'aile de la prison, donc on ne se sent pas comme une prison, mais sinon l'extérieur et tout donne l'ambiance de la prison. Fortement recommandé et je dois essayer cet endroit au moins une fois!

J'ai séjourné deux nuits dans cet hôtel à Perth et j'en ai été très content, avec une ambiance touristique détendue. Il est situé non loin de l'aéroport et du centre-ville, avec un arrêt de bus juste devant. L'hôtel propose une navette aéroport, ce qui est très pratique. Il dispose également d'une piscine d'eau salée, très agréable.

I’ve stayed in fair few budget and mid-range hostels, and overall, Cable Beach Backpackers has a really good vibe. The Good Stuff: • Its a perfect Location. Literally walking distance to Cable Beach, restaurants, and bars. There’s also a bus stop right outside that heads into town every 20 minutes, which was a lifesaver. • The staff are so welcoming and easy to chat with. The little on-site bar has great prices, and the outdoor area is awesome—heaps of undercover seating and a brilliant hammock zone. The kitchen is also massive with plenty of room to cook and store your food. • Having good Wi-Fi was amazing, especially since mobile network coverage can be pretty patchy around the area. • I felt completely safe the entire time. I never worried about my personal safety or my belongings, which is always a huge relief when backpacking. The Not-So-Good Stuff (Just being honest): • I was in a 4-person dorm. It’s pretty basic (two bunks and a clothes rack) and felt super cramped once everyone brought their bags in. The biggest issue was airflow. The window wouldn’t open, so even with the ceiling fan and two portable fans blasting, it got really stuffy and stinky. The only way to get fresh air was leaving the main door wide open. While I felt safe enough to do this, it’s still not ideal for privacy or keeping the bugs out. Putting flyscreens on the doors could fix this! • I didn't see any lockers in the room for safely locking away small valuables. If they do have them and I just missed them, it would be great to have them highlighted at check-in, otherwise adding some would be a great upgrade. • There are noise restrictions after 10 PM, but people were still talking loudly, playing music and making noise late into the night every evening. Also, a lot of guests didn't clean up after themselves, so the shared tables and bathrooms were pretty messy a lot of the time. People also ignored the designated smoking areas. Overall, the location, Wi-Fi, and staff are top-notch, and it feels like a very safe spot to stay. I know you get what you pay for but it could still do with a little bit of a reno and better upkeep to stop the shared spaces from getting messy.

Terrible service! This is the first hotel/motel I've ever been to that didn't accommodate its customers. Australia never ceases to amaze me, in the worst sense of the word. The situation was this. We were planning to drive from Norseman to Lucky Bay (near Esperance) to see kangaroos and swim in the ocean, and then check into the hotel at around 8 p.m. But the motel confronted me with a fait accompli: check-in is strictly from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m.!!! Not an hour later! Otherwise, they won't give you the keys, and you'll be sleeping on the street. I physically didn't have time to drive such a long distance, stop at Lucky Bay, and check into the motel before 6 a.m., which I've repeatedly written in private messages about. No response! The answer was the same: if I don't make it, they won't give me the keys. I called the management and asked them to accommodate me, leave the keys in the box, explaining that I was a tourist, my first time in Australia, and would probably never come back, that I wouldn't have time to see the kangaroos at Lucky Bay. The motel management turned a deaf ear to my requests. Unfortunately, it was impossible to book another hotel. These people at the hotel are completely incompetent! Where has anyone ever seen a motel that only allows occupancy for such a short period of time?! I hope trip.com support takes appropriate action.

Le dortoir mixte est spacieux et généralement propre. On ne sait pas à l'avance si l'on occupe le lit du haut ou du bas. Le hall d'entrée est agréable si l'on a besoin de travailler ou d'attendre son vol. Il y a aussi un bar avec sandwichs et bières. Dans l'ensemble, une expérience très agréable, même si le prix est un peu élevé si l'on réserve peu à l'avance, comme moi.

To compare with the price we paid; Bed was comfy 9/10 Water pressure was 1000/10 Quietness 5/10 Air condition (it’s super loud) 2/10 Amenity 8/10 Location (we walked from the hotel to drinks in the city roughly 20 mins) 8/10 Easy to checked in/out of 10/10 We didn’t use their wifi but it’s available Darkness 8/10 the curtain is not big enough to blocked the light from outside. Cleanliness 9/10 room refreshing service was good. Size of room 9/10 Basically, it’s almost perfect if you are only there for just sleeping and spending the most of the day outside. We woke up because next room had a shower 🙂

Séjour confortable avec parking privé. À quelques minutes en voiture d'un centre commercial et de restaurants. Un peu bruyant en raison de la proximité de l'autoroute.

Lovely little motel in Cervantes! Only stayed for a night but would have been happy if I was there longer, lovely and clean, comfortable bed and the restaurant was great!! I had the grilled kangaroo having never tried it before (being from England) and was pleasantly surprised 😊 would recommend this motel to anyone passing through Cervantes.

A nice hostel not too far from Perth city center. Good things I liked: - Comfortable mattress, with a small curtain for a little privacy - Staffs were nice and helpful - common areas, kitchen, and showers/toilets were cleaned daily - Plus point: Breakfast included (simple toasts with peanut butter/Jam/choc spread) - Free coffee and tea (not the best quality but ok) - near bus stop and grocery (Woolworths) Not so good things: - rooms are quite cramped - no signage outside, bit confusing & hard to find for first timers - Most of the furniture and kitchen facilities are quite old - front porch & yard seems messy & unaesthetic - Price-to-quality ratio: ok The free breakfast, nice & helpful staff, kitchen space and social areas make this hostel recommendable. However, needs for hostel signage & revamping of all spaces & furnitures would make it a highly recommended hostel.

Very good location. Cat bus stops very nearby which are free for travel around Perth CBD. There are a few great restaurants within walking distance. The motel is very clean, comfortable bed and lovely service. The room is basic, but you have everything you need. The rooms are also nice and large
