I had a mixed experience during my stay. On one hand, the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, especially Abbie, who went above and beyond to assist me with travel plans. The location was perfect for exploring Brisbane. On the downside, I struggled to get a good night’s sleep because of the loud noise from the nightclub below and the squeaky bunk beds. Overall, it’s a great place if you’re looking for a social atmosphere but not ideal for those needing a quiet retreat.

My experience at this hostel was overwhelmingly negative. The cleanliness was deeply concerning, especially in the bathrooms and kitchen, which were in a dreadful state. While the location was somewhat convenient, with a close proximity to the city, the rooms and overall atmosphere were far below acceptable standards. There was little to appreciate about my stay, making it clear I won't be returning.

I had a fantastic time at this hostel during my first trip to Brisbane! Check-in was quick, and I appreciated the staff's suggestions for free activities around the city. The room was spacious with big lockers, making it easy to store my backpack. However, my friend's stay was not as pleasant when we returned, as we ended up in a much smaller and dirtier room. Overall, it has great social vibes and is perfect for meeting new people, but the inconsistency in room quality is something to keep in mind.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel, especially for its affordable rates. The basic comforts were all there, including a clean environment and a lovely rooftop area to unwind. However, the noise from the bar below can be quite disruptive if you're looking to get a good night's sleep. Overall, it offers decent value but may not be suitable for light sleepers.

My stay at the hostel was quite disappointing. While I did enjoy a bit of charm in the building, the noise levels, cleanliness, and poor facilities really took away from the experience. The kitchen and bathrooms were in dire need of attention, making cooking and personal hygiene a challenge. Overall, it felt more like a budget nightmare than an investment for my travels.
