Customer review

19 February 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Friendly service, but that you'll got no key for your room was very surprisingly and not what I expected!!! And other customers had "ruined" the clean bathroom, sorry for that but customers should be told/teached to look by themselves for cleanliness, not just to wait for someone of the stuff to clean it up...Despite this two negative facts: great stay in Perth

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Andrew Brown

26 November 2009 Andrew would recommend this property

Liked: Extremely friendly hostel with every amenity you could want. You get your own fridge space, food space and a large kitchen. The internet is fast and you can either use their computers or a laptop. There is a good TV lounge and also courtyard. It only takes 20 minutes to walk into town so although the location is not central this isn't an issue. They also offer great travel advice to help you plan your trip in the region. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Liked: The room was aged and wasn't warm at night. And the location is not near city centre. Wireless internet was $3/hour - that's not expensive in Perth - and it is only available around common room.

18 July 2009 Graham George would recommend this property

Liked: Quite obviously Wich's Hat is a professionaly run outfit that understands the nature of the hospitality business and customer target group.Clearly the service ethic is one of it's primary aims. If you have special needs and the management feels they can assist, then they will do so as they did for me.I've been just about everywhere on the backpackers trail since about 1968 and know the difference between a rough, OKis, Modest, good and excellent Backpackers. The Witch's is well into the last of these catagorese.Sincerely, Graham G. Mills

Liked: I enjoyed my stay at the Witch's Hat. The facilities were superb. I mostly liked the 10.30pm curfew because then I could get some sleep. If you are a party animal, this is not an ideal place for you.

Richard Woods

11 April 2009 Richard would recommend this property

Liked: The cleanest and best run hostel I've stayed in so far on a 2 month trip round Oz, certainly head and shoulders above others in Northbridge with big rooms and social areas as well as a postcard frontage. On the downside its a little further from the party both literally and figuratively being a few more streets from the main drag than most of the others and enforcing a lights-out at 10:30 policy.

Disliked: Richard left no negative feedback.
