Checking out a Mildura hostel, what should you look for in the lobby?

Answer: Certificate of registration

Visit Mildura says look for the hostel's certificate of registration, usually on the lobby wall, and keep payment receipts.

Ask how and when you'll be paid, and get help early if something seems wrong. Most employers and landlords do the right thing, but a minority take advantage of travellers.
