I should have paid more attention to the negative reviews for the hostel before I chose to stay there! Most people live in the hostel making it quite unfriendly for newcomers. There is a very loud party every single night and it's impossible to sleep until 3/4am. The standard of cleanliness is pretty low. I would strongly advise against staying... More

the backpacker is cheap but we know why!!! All of it said it's a lie. Nobody wash nothings, you can meet a po-oh stay in the toilette or a pi-ss on the ground(the shower is in the same room)! They said the music stop at midnight, we sleep in a doubled room one week just a side of the music... More

I've stayed at the OFS 3 months. Those were the best months of my trip. Everything is nice about this hostel: the staff, the look (the paints on the walls are awesome), the people, the pingpong tournaments every month, the backyard, the outdoor cinema, it's the perfect place if you want to make the party every night, the "jukebox" in...

I spent two months at this hostel, brilliant atmosphere and all the facilities. Probably not the place to stay if you are seeking a relaxing getaway, but this is possibly the best place too get drunk in Freo! Friendly staff and a good location make this place a winner.

This was the first hostel I stayed in and thoroughly enjoyed it. A lot of people are long termers but you are made to feel welcome, although can still be a little 'clicky'. I stayed in a female dorm which has its own kitchen, TV, and bathroom. Spent a few nights in my PJs under a blanket watching one of... More

A really nice place. Very friendly with a great atmosphere. The place was constantly being cleaned so can't complain there. Most people in the hostel had been there for a long time but they made us feel very welcome.

I have stayed in many hostels over the years of various standards so I can so from experience that hostel had some good points and some very unfortunate points. It is a nice building with big common rooms and free internet. The rooms are a bit crowded together and shoved in every corner. It was also filthy. There were worms... More
