We had a private room with private bathroom and it was very clean and calm. The staff at the front desk is lovely and very helpful. The gym, kitchen, rooftop and pool are very clean. They offer a wide variety of activity. Unfortunately, the lack of commitment from the traveler make it difficult for activities to happens, but the staff are trying their best to make it work, with a lot of new things on the bar menu upcoming.

Pros - Nice staff - Rooftop pool Cons - Kitchen is too small so complete chaos at peak times. A lot of the cooking equipment is old and needs replacement - Can’t take stairs between floors and only two lifts for entire building. Really slow getting around - Only two toilets and showers for entire floor - Hostel was full of teenage sports team which were loud and took over entire communal spaces - Top bunk is very awkward to get in and out of, and my bunk was directly beneath AC unit

I highly recommend this hostel. It was my first time traveling alone, and since my English isn’t very good, I was feeling a bit anxious. However, the staff made a real effort to understand me, and the other guests were kind and helpful. Security was also top-notch—you couldn’t get in without a key card. If I ever visit Brisbane again, I’d love to stay here. Thank you very much.

AC in room didn’t work, I went to the front desk to complain and they didn’t fix it and I woke up sweating in the middle of the night and had to pay more for a different room. I’ve been home for over a week now and see they JUST charged me over $200 after I emailed them with my complaints?!

Lovely staff, and great spaces to chill in various places in and around the hostel. Fab cafe near reception that also offer a gran n go 24hrs! Just a lovely place to stay, rooms are decent as have curtains and the shared bathrooms were clean. Found there to be a lot more middle age + people there than other hostels I’ve previously been in but it was a good stay overall and I extended my stay 3 times!

Really nice property. Very clean with excellent amenities and staff. Very well organized. I would 100% recommend this to anyone that wants/needs to stay in a hostel. It's great for first timers as it is in pristine condition.

I wouldn’t recommend this hostel to any young backpackers. It’s very difficult to meet people, there’s no vibe at all.There was a lot of older men staying at this hostel, im 20 and was in a bed next to a 60+ yo man. To me this feels inappropriate .The hostel itself is clean and the beds are comfortable. But that’s about it. I’d suggest an age limit or more consideration with who they are putting people in rooms with. Wouldn’t recommended especially to young female travellers.

Super auberge à Brisbane : propre, très bons équipements, dortoir féminin calme et avec des lits équipés de rideaux, possibilité d'emprunter des serviettes de bain gratuitement, piscine et rooftop... Je recommande !

The staff was so kind! I really liked them. The facilities were nice. The beds have a curtain, so that's good. The location was quite bad, but the view and pool and bar really made up for that

First time using youth hostel facility in Australia (used some before in Japan and Germany). Clean and organized, a bit up hill from the station but still close enough. Definitely will come back next time visiting Brisbane.
