Tips for long-term hostel living



If you are coming to Australia on a working holiday visa, then this blog is definitely for you. Every year, there are many backpackers who wish to experience the true roots of Australia and so they stay for a year or two, to experience it all. But living in Australia can be costly if you do not consider the following tips. People who are looking for choices in Perth’s hostel accommodation scene should definitely follow them. 

1. Pay your rent in Bulk

Short term rents will always cost you more when compared to long-term rents. If you are sure of staying at a place for an year, then it is viable to opt for a long term rent with the hostel you are staying. This will help you to save a great deal of money.
2. Ask for a long-term dorm

Before you book hostel accommodation in Perth, be sure to let them know on the duration of your stay. Hostels entertain many backpackers around the year, due to which, each room can have a variable number of bookings. There is a chance that a dorm available now, might be booked for the next month. So it is better to plan ahead and let the hostels know about your plans when you are booking with them.
3. Choose a smaller dorm

As mentioned earlier, backpacker hostels host many guests from all around the world, due to which each dorm can host many guests. If you do not wish to be surrounded by many people and want some peace, then you can select a smaller dorm that allows only two or three people at max.
4. Organize communal dinners

If you are travelling on a long-term then you are at an advantage to meet many people in your tenure of stay. Some backpackers take up the position of a veteran and organize communal dinners, to welcome all the are backpackers and to know them better. We feel, that you should do it too! This will make your stay easy and these dinners can act as an ice-breaking session between you and other new travellers.
5. Make local friends

At some point, you are going to run out of touristy things to do, if you are staying in Australia for a long-term. Make some local friends who can show you around and make you part of the community. Backpackers usually wish to stay for a longer period of time, to experience the true essence of a place and belong there without belonging.

Choose a Hostel that can provide a Comfortable Stay

While choosing to be in Australia for a long term, do keep in mind that you are almost practically living here and so you would want your stay to be as comfortable as possible. There are a few hostel accommodations in Perth that can be comfortable and light on your wallet as well, and Mumma’s hostel is among them. Call us at  0490888766 to book a stay with us.
