Price - 25USD for a 3 bed mixed dorm.

Location - Pretty residential, which made it a very relaxing, chill place. It was across from a nice big park, for those of you who like green spaces. The only drawback was that it was about 3 longish blocks from the free bus that will take you around the city. If you happen to wear the wrong shoes because you're dumb and forget you're going back to a hostel and not being dropped off in front of your apartment as usual (insert ultra-sad face here) it's a very long 3 blocks.

Cleanliness - Spotless. I was muy impressed. The kitchens were cleaned maybe twice a day but they were quickly reopened.

Notes - It's in a beautiful old house with a back patio area, nice wood floors, a security gate with keypad, a wraparound porch and a generally friendly staff. It's the go-to place if you're looking to book onward travel as well, the owner (his name is Hopper but I couldn't bring myself to ever call him that) was a tour operator of some sort in a former life and is quite good at throwing trips together at a great price.

Best For - Groups looking to book trips around Western Australia, older travellers, people comfortable with solo navigation and unfamiliar places.
