Hostelworld says

Brisbane City Backpackers features a rooftop swimming pool, a cinema room, car parking, free Wi-Fi, a large kitchen, a busy onsite bar and clean and comfortable dorms. The rooftop terrace is particularly popular with Hostelworld guests, one of whom told us, ‘I loved the top of the hostel where you can enjoy a view over the city and look at the stars’. They’re located close to the river and near the rest of the city centre.
