From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by super friendly staff, eager to please. Great first impression, which got better and better the longer we stayed. The hostel is smaller than most, but that's what makes the place so great, it’s a party place but at the same time, we never found it hard to sleep (don't why some... More

If you're looking for a place to sleep in Brisbane, then this 'resort' is ideal. The location is central and close to transport/things to do, the staff were generally helpful, and it wasn't too expensive. If you're looking for 'magical memories' then perhaps look elsewhere. This is a busy hostel (which can make it seem a little impersonal), can get... More

We stayed here for three nights in a private double with ensuite. At the time we stayed there were a few large events going on in Brisbane so the hostel was completely full. Due to that, the first thing we noticed was how efficient the staff at the reception desk were. There was a big queue but it was like... More

The place was nice - clean tidy, had great facilities available if you wanted to access them. I thought it was a bit pricey - paying for the bag lock up each day was expensive and not sure the price of the room was worth it.The staff were nice and pretty helpful. Really nice having a bar onsite. Try not... More

Cleanliness ok for a backpackers, better than most I stayed in. I would stay again, though it's so big and there are a lot of long term people there so I... More

I stayed here on two separate occasions while travelling round Australia. I stayed here the first time as I was doing an outbackpackers course and they put us up there beforehand to meet others on the course and it was a really good place to stay. We met some lovely people, the shuttle bus is really handy and the food... More

We were desperate for a place to stay and hostel world had great reviews for this place, as soon as we arrived we didn't get why! We were put in a 6 bed room, that smelt awful, was a tip and the 2 "spare beds" didn't look like they were free! So we changed to a 4 bed which was... More

I am a solo traveller and have stayed in many hostels.In most places there is a good, friendly atmosphere but this place was the opposite.The Staff didnt seem interested at all and i think some people lived there. On the internet this place advertised free pickup from the airport.The staff got out of this by saying that you had to... More
