You get what you pay for. I didn't think to take pics. The hotel is at best worn out like travelling back in time but keeping the wear from the future. Check in wasn't the easiest the people on the next counter were off an international flight from India and having all sorts of drama as the names they had booked under didn't match their passport and IDs. The lift was under repair looked like the signs had been up forever lucky we were only on 2nd floor and not much luggage The room is ok double bed the linen was clean but the springs in bed were sticking out in all places and curtains not blockout. The A/Con was split system it worked but was gaffa taped together The bathroom toilet was clean but if door open the whole room stank of sewage from when we walked in, the bathroom as a whole was clean apart from that. TV was cheaper Chinese flat scream but worked. On arriving back at hotel at 1:30am the door was jammed open and some homeless walked out to go to McDonalds or a smoke they had set up camp in the foyer. I promptly made sure the door was locked shut again. On the positive. Its close to all the CBD of Perth. Has a liquor store next door and an IGA close by. Also, its cheap enough that if you want to just stay the night and not worry about Taxi/Uber and full trains full of idiots on a weekend night out the other stuff mentioned earlier balanced out and at a third to quarter price everywhere else it ticks a box. Knowing what I'm getting Id return for the price.

Not great, it was cheap and we only stayed for 1 night but it wasn’t worth it. I should have paid a bit more for a nicer place, it was really dirty and super noisy throughout the night!

The Criterion has seen better days. They are renovating it, but not quickly. The rooms are plain and have some wear and tear to them. However, it is clean, there is a refrigerator, the water was hot and the pressure was good, it is on a quiet street, the staff are there 24 hrs a day (although there is no housekeeping on the weekends), and it is convenient to everything. It is also economical. which is why I booked it in the first place. If you just want a safe, quiet, clean place to rest your head, I recommend it highly. If you want a luxury room with a minibar to hang out in, go somewhere else.

Paint peeling, established funnel web spider webs and an undistinguished smell that actually leached onto my cloths. There is a difference between art deco and old, dirty and decrepit. Immediate area around hotel , late night and early morning, felt unsafe with homeless , drunk and prostitution going on . Do not recommend and will not be returning

The Criterion was Ok -- serviceable. The location was central, in an area with fast-food restaurants, and with walkable access to the downtown area. There is one small place near the hotel that is slightly seedy, but I didn't feel threatened. The hotel has seen better days, but again, is serviceable. The bathroom was nice, the TV worked, beds OK, although I didn't see any heat source in the room (fortunately, it wasn't quite cold enough to require heat). The main drawback was that the wi-fi didn't reach to the third floor where our room was, so we had to go down to the lobby to do e-mail and messaging. I believe the first floor may have had wi-fi, but we were on the third floor. The late-night McDonald's was just a half-block away, which compensated for any inconveniences for jet-lagged travelers from LAX, 21 jet-hours away plus layover time!

The Criterion has not been upgraded for decades for this reason alone it is not good value for money It smells mouldy and all facilities are ancient. The walls are paper thin and mattresses very soft with blankets instead of doonahs. They actually take out a $250 bond out of your account instead of a ‘hold’ so you have to make sure when you leave that you check your card has all the correct details with them to reimburse. It is close to train station and centre of town but there are some unsavoury characters and places nearby. It’s only saving grace was their cleaners do a magnificent job considering how old everything is.
