Answer 1

Go onto this website: http://www.backpackersintperth.com/#

Its ran by three of the loveliest people you are ever going to meet (Andy and Belinda, a married couple and Andy's sister Fiona), its always clean, welcoming and safe. Very close to the nightlife and the city is a ten minute walk or a free bus ride away.

May be a litle bit more expensive than your run of the mill hostel but it is well worth it!!!

It has a free breakfast put out everyday and 24hr tea,coffee and milk also included in the price. Also a big water filter machine for drinking water.

Foxtel (just dont expect to get anywhere near telly when Westcoast Eagles are playing Aussie Rules!!! Andy will chew your leg off lol) , 3 computers with wifi internet, touch-tone pay phone, security lockers for valuables, smoking area, DVDs/videos, balcony with good views, BBQ, laundry, huge kitchen and lounge room.

I got to Perth with the intention of being there 3 weeks and stayed 8 months!!!

On website go into goodtimes, top left hand picture, girl in the pink on the phone behind the girl with the camera thats me lol!!!

Hi, my sister and I will also be arriving in Perth in October so we also spent a long time looking at hostels. Beatty Lodge (you'll find it on hostelworld.com or hostelbookers.com) is very cheap compared to all the others, I have written down that it's $25 for a private twin, though that could be wrong. They have internet, a swimming pool, laundry and it's apparently very clean (unfortunately no breakfast included but I'm sure you'll get by). Let me just see if I can find you a link. http://www.beattylodge.com.au/

Also Comfort Hostel doesn't seem overly expensive. You obviously will have to pay a bit more everywhere though if you want a private twin.

Thats where I went when I booked hostels when traveling Europe.  But getting a Private Double will be expensive compared to sharing a room, like having four people to a room or something.  It will be cheaper. But if you want a double room, you might try finding a hotel in the area and you two split it and it might be cheaper, worth a shot looking, but hostels in certain areas can run a lil more expensive.
