Haus Accommodation - note - Valid passport required to check-in
This hostel is suitable for budget-conscious travellers prioritising a social atmosphere and central location, provided they are prepared for basic pod amenities and shared facilities.
Haus Accommodation in Perth offers a hostel experience with a 'Japanese-style' capsule layout, providing individual bunks with privacy. While the central location is a significant advantage for exploring the city and its nightlife, guests should be aware of certain limitations. The pods themselves are noted for lacking power outlets and lighting, requiring guests to bring their own. Shared bathroom facilities are basic, with some concerns raised about privacy and lighting. The hostel fosters a social atmosphere, with many guests praising the friendly and helpful staff. However, the property appears to be undergoing renovations, and some common areas are described as run-down.

Noise & sleep
While some guests found the interior quiet, the proximity to pubs and nightclubs can lead to external noise at night.
“It was fairly quiet as well the night I was there.”
“It's very close to many pubs/night clubs so it gets noisy outside at night.”
Pod comfort
Capsules lack power outlets and lighting, requiring guests to bring their own. Beds are also noted to be shaky and noisy.
“No power outlets or any lighting in the capsules. I think there were people on nightshift sleeping in the room so the main lights were kept off, it was very dark. I'm glad I had a head torch and a portable battery pack.”
“I would definitely prefer the capsule hostel as the beds are bigger and they have lights and power points in every bed.”
“The beds moved a lot and was very difficult to go up and down without making noise or disturbing other customers.”
Privacy
The capsule design provides good privacy within the dorms, described as a 'Japanese-style' layout. However, a security concern was raised regarding shared access codes for the hostel.
“The capsules give good privacy, the bedding was clean.”
“New Japanese-style "capsule" type layout of bunks in dorm which offers greater privacy.”
