I have stayed in Hive for quite long time. The hostel is located in Northbridge, close to Perth train station (2mins away by walk) close to all the supermarket, shops, restaurants, bars and clubs in CBD and There is oven in kitchen which is very rare for hostel. you can really cook anything you want! The building is a little old but they are renovating now and I never felt the place as dirty. All the people who work there and people who stay there are very nice. You will feel this place as your home right away. It is the cheapest hostel in Perth city and you get more than what you pay. I highly recommend :)

No staff there to check in, would be back in 10 minutes more like 20 minutes. Private Room overall tidy, air con that doesn’t work if needed. Very noisy due to everyone using the bathroom next door. shared facilities dirty.

In this hostel you can feel like in a big family! Good atmosphere and good people... Perfect if you want have party but also if you want quiet because the ambient is big and they organize events outside. Thanks hive hostel for the good time in Perth.

Watch your food, otherwise will be throw away
No matter you forgot to lable or your lable is gone, staff will take your food out of the fridge and put on the table. Your milk, cream, yogurt, leftovers, vegetables...all of your food will spoil. And then staff will throw it away. The photo is how they treat your food.

Thief's heaven
If you wanna be a thief, the hive is your best choice. But you need to make a friend with the manager and you must be white. If you steal something they will kick you out but they can tolerate their friend is a thief. And they will ask you to give their friend a chance.

Bed bugs in the hive!?
While I move to 8 bed shared room I feel insect bite me. I told manager and cleaner they told me they didn't find any insect and it's my own problem maybe. The photo is what I got from the hive hostel.

Run down and dirty
The power outlets and plugs look like they're one more laptop plug away from an electrical fire in the common areas. The bathrooms are poorly stocked. No soap or hand towels to wash your hands. Everything is dirty. I should have slept in my car.

Horrible, disgusting hostel!!
The Hives was the most disgusting experience I've ever had. When I complained that there were hair on my sheets I received some 'new' sheets with hair on it, too. One bathroom has a broken window, the toilets and showers are dirty as hell and there's nobody who really cleans ist. They have voluntaries who live there for free and who pretend to clean... The kitchen is too small for that amount of people and just disgusting, dirt everywhere...

Budget accommodation if you don't want sleep
Fool me for not doing more research tho for what I paid, I was dry, safe and had a bed to sleep on. I was given fair warning that the other peeps would be having a party in the court yard out the back. That was fine. Little did I know and yes fool me, the Court Hotel (best gay bar in Perth - I'm a huge fan now) backs into the hostel. I would have had the same sleep as if I was sleeping outside the court itself. Music was so loud until close 3am.

Ok to stay, staff not nice
The staffs are not very nice. The girl is looking down upon people from Asia. The boss is very nice. The room is clean. It's interested to try 24 people room. The hostle has a lot of social. At weekend they have party, however it's very noisy until 12am or 1am. The kitchen is not very clean, not very dirty, just so so. Overall, it's ok to stay, however the price is a little bit high.

Don't expect too much and you will be fine
Only a quick overnight stay. Was a cheap bed and all I really needed. Not the nicest place, but a well located hostel. Loud guests, but it was a Friday night so to be expected. Suited my needs just fine!
