YHA Fremantle Prison

The staff were friendly and helpful. Hostel was clean and quiet. There were activities and we had a Christmas BBQ.

Honestly, the price and service are completely mismatched. I can't believe I paid around $60 per night for the following experience: The shower only provides cold water, and there's a sign telling you to limit your usage time. The power outlet isn't located near the mirror, so using a hairdryer while looking in the mirror is impossible. The bed sheets are full of pilling, making them uncomfortable to sleep on. Outdoor tables are left uncleaned for days, with bird droppings in the same spot showing no sign of maintenance. The living room TV isn't connected to Wi-Fi, and guests can't access it to watch movies. The staff Wi-Fi is required, but even when asked, the staff claim they don't know how to connect it. The staff are not only unfriendly but outright dismissive, often saying, "That's not my job," when asked questions. I was deeply disappointed that this is the level of service offered by YHA. The only positive aspect of my stay was the friendliness of the other guests, but this has nothing to do with the service provided by the staff.

Cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in ( and in Fremantle )  Lovely staff, more on the quieter side if that’s what you are after :)

It's an unique experience to stay in a "cell" which I believe all rooms & bathrooms were converted from the prison cell. Walking distance to eateries but everything closes pretty early

I spent four days there .staff always hang the smile on there face . WIFI is very strong in common room indeed I can use it in my room ,of course it will be a little weak but ok

Would highly recommend this hostel!! It’s in such a unique building, in a nice location and everything is being kept very clean at all times. The kitchen always was so clean you could lick nutella of the counters if you wanted to lol. Great showers, but I noticed that showers in Australia don’t have removable shower heads. Super friendly staff as well! The guy at reception was very experienced in the area and gave me lots of inspiration for fun things to do in Perth. Overall I had a delightful and satisfying stay!
