We had a lovely stay. One of the best things were the curtains on the beds and the lockers for the backpacks! What we didn’t really like was the smell from the bathroom and that the kitchen was missing a few items we needed. But overall, everyone was awesome and we would 100% recommend to stay there.

The facilities are great, cleaning was undertaken well however some guests are just really messy. The biggest problem for myself was the lack of sleep I got due to the sound of the doors slamming shut, my own dorm room and others in the corridor. Even with good earplugs it would wake me up. The soft close devices need looking at as they should be quiet, please:)

Hostelworld says

Cool, contemporary and convenient, the Brisbane City YHA is the perfect hostel for groups or solo travellers looking to mix with fellow adventurers and make some friends. You don't even need to step out the front door to find a party, the bar is always bouncing and there's plenty of entertainment besides, like pool tables, swimming pool and a games room where they hold frequent Wii competitions. It's close to the centre too, as well as within walking distance of the transit centre, so you won't be getting lost.
