YHA Brisbane City

Quite nice during my stays here .. definitely will come back again if I visit here again. Feelings comfortable and quite near to city , public transport nearby. Strategic location 👍🏼

The YHA in Brisbane is my favorite in Brisbane. The rooms are clean and big enough (4share), in a convenient location close to the center - and it has a nice rooftop terrace with regular events such as Mario cart night (see pictures) Only downside for me was that there was a working holiday makers, charging a huge, loudly whirring e-bike battery in the room.

They still haven't fixed the air conditioner in room 207. It's been making noise for 4 months already. There's a train station and a supermarket nearby. Close to the city center.

Zero stars. The male receptionist with a South American accent is exceptionally rude and tried to prevent me from retrieving my luggage from the luggage room and accused me of not being a paid guest despite the fact that I was and have stayed there many times before. I would avoid this place unless you want to be treated without any respect.

Brisbane YHA was a great base for my weekend trip to the city. As a female solo traveller looking for a cheap bed, it served its purpose nicely. Whilst the location is a short walk from the CBD, and close to the Southbank, the surrounding area felt quite run-down, and was basically just a stretch of backroads lined with backpacker hostels, hence didn’t feel super safe at nighttime. The room was clean and reasonably spacious, with privacy curtains and a good range of charging outlets by the bedside. It had a modern feel, and the bathrooms were well-maintained, though a little further from the room than I would’ve liked. I would’ve liked a more social atmosphere, but everyone in my dorm seemed to be doing their own thing/keen to keep to themselves. There was parking on-site, however it is an extra $20 per night, but felt more secure than leaving my car on the roadside. Overall, a good stay, thanks :)

One of the nicest hostel facilities in Brisbane, nice rooftop, but the bunk beds are a little hard to climb into and rooms are not well ventilated so if someone stinks everyone can smell it. The room I stayed in had a noise problem with the door shaking every 2 minutes very loud due to wind or something, ear plugs are definitely needed to stay here.
