I enjoyed my stay at this hostel. I arrived late, so the keys to the room were left there for me. I did a smooth check-in the next morning. The room that I stayed in was just right to fit 6 beds and a little bit of walking space. Still, it didn't feel too crammed. The other guests at the hostel were nice and the general vibe of the place was peaceful and clean. Lockers were provided. Fantastic location.

On arrival you are asked to make the bed by yourself. This in itself is not an issue. What made it a bit problematic was that I arrived in the night and had to juggle with a torch and bedsheets in the dark. This was a bit annoying for the other guest sleeping in the room at the time. Since my late arrival had been already communicated, it would have been helpful if they had been already placed. Not a huge negative, but worth mentioning as potential improvement!

Very convenient location in the heart of the city. Great communication (they were quick to advise a solution for arrivals after 11pm). Hostel was quite in the night and morning. You can hear some noise from other rooms, but it wasn’t bad. Our bed in the room we stayed in was pretty damn squeaky - noisey when getting in and out for a midnight wee. Breakfast was simple (cornflakes or Oats) but it did the trick. Staff was friendly. Aircon in the rooms was good, keeping the room tolerable whilst Perth had a heatwave. Checkin and checkout were super simple. We’d stay again

Rooms were looking dated, and could do with a clean.

The location of this backpackers is execeptional, this is actually situated in front of the Police station, so you are sure that your stay with them is safe. Facility are wondeful, tho i did not got a chance to roam around but by just looking at the reception, you have a 360 view of the entire floor, it was clean spacious and all of the guest was amazing. The bed is really comfortable, ive rented a private room, it was clean very spacious and private, socket near the bed and mirror with study table, chair and drawer. Linens smells good, you wouldnt know that there was someone sleeping in the bed before you, they prepare the room just like the expensive hotel around perth. Reception and staff are amazing and wonderful people, you can check-in late and the hotline is still available even if its late, but dont be so late to check in, as the staff still need to rest too, so better to check in early to avoid hassle. Over all it was a lovely stay and i enjoyed it, will stay here again. Thanks Qoukka youre awesome!

I hope they can put shower gel in the bathroom in the future.

It was a really good hostel to stay in. Police station was right across the road. Staff were really nice and friendly especially San. Place was well kept and cleaned by staff on a regular basis (based on what I observed). Toilets and Shower facilities were clean and I didn't really have to fight with other guests to use them - everyone has varying routines! Aircon was nice and good for me during my stay - good to beat the summer heat outside. Very convenient location which was near Perth station, bank and other amenities (about a 5-10 min walk away).

I think the problem with hostels is always the other guests. They weren't the best at keeping quiet at odd hours or cleaning the common spaces. There weren't a lot of spaces to keep food in the fridge or the cubbies, I suspect there are a lot of guests who stay there long-term or are FIFO. But if you are patient you will find enough space eventually. 1 Staff did start vacuuming at 7am which was annoying but that happened once during my week long stay. But overall a really nice hostel, wouldn't mind staying there again.

The mattress in the house is very soft, and the roommates are very friendly. I like to chat with everyone. There is a big kitchen, although I don't cook much. The overall environment is very good, I have a very pleasant week here.

The toilets are a bit dated but serviceable.

Room size was great, a lot of place to store and big enough to comfortably open your suitcase. Bathrooms/restrooms were very tidy, every morning they were cleaned extensively. Beds were okay, except my mattress had a massive pit.

Breakfast only was some budget cereal with with, and coffee/tea, that's it. Was expecting just a bit more.

Quokka Backpackers Hostel is a great place: staff was super nice, friendly, reliable, and helpful, with great people staying there. Everything was clean for hostel standards, and it has everything you may need as a backpacker. It's close to the city, bars, and night clubs, and a perfect place to meet people from all over the world. I just stayed for 3 nights, but felt so comfortable there, I'm sad I already have to leave.

Great location under 10 mins walk from CBD, close to a lot bars & restaurants. $10 daily parking nearby. Staff were absolutely great, big thanks to Amy for helping us out and looking after us. Bathrooms were cleaned frequently, enough facilities and a great fully equipped kitchen. Well worth a visit! 24/h access

Rooms were a bit cold for the time of year, that's literally the only thing I could recommend changing

Great kitchen facilities (air fryer, rice cooker), plenty of showers and toilets. Very friendly people. Nice terrace to sit outside. Very cheap compared to other hostels. Simple breakfast included.

Curtains on the beds would be desirable for more privacy. Due to the lack of windows in the rooms on the upper floor the air is very bad.

I enjoyed the common area with comfy sofas and the room which was nice, well aerated and had all I needed. Plus, the hostel was very quiet and in a great position, close to the station, it was easy to walk everywhere in the city center.

Breakfast was very basic, maybe that's the only thing that I'd say might be improved in the future
