Two popular WA hostels suddenly close over major health risk
By Yousuf Shameel
Almost 100 backpackers have been left stranded in WA’s largest regional city, with the only two backpacker hostels forced to close over asbestos exposure.
The Wander Inn Bunbury Backpackers and Dolphin Retreat Bunbury were ordered to close by the City of Bunbury last week after failing to address an “urgent” asbestos risk identified on January 20.
