I arrived in Oasis backpackers in Mildura from Melbourne. On the day I arrived I was told that work in the garlic factory would be available in the next few days and we would earn up to $800 per week.

If you love the above then this place is awesome. Pretty much Fri thru Sun you won't get much sleep. Depending on the season will depend on when you get that 'good job.' I got a crap job the 1st week then promised the garlic factory for a good stint, what they don't tell you is that it is only... More

If I had a dollar for everytime I was told I would be given a worthwhile job - on grapes, garlic or watermelons - I would be a very rich pomme. We rang quite a few hostels in Midura and only Oasis promised us work on either the grapes, garlic or watermelons, which seemed great. Every other hostel asked us... More

I have never written a review for any hotel/hostel I have stayed in previously however good or bad but I feel that the severity of the way this hostel treats its occupants, warrants a warning to anyone thinking of staying here. DON'T! The saga begins before you even arrive. We phoned the hostel to inquire about the likely hood of... More

Upon arrival we were picked up by Bob the caretaker who,... More
