The room had a very nice layout considering there were 18 beds it didn’t feel crowded at all. There was also an outlet and little shelf provided in each bed for phones. There were also large sized lockers provided for each person which is always a pleasant surprise. The laundry facilities were the best I’ve seen in a hostel so far. There were at least 6 washers and 6 dryers so you were never stuck waiting for a machine in a cramped room. The kitchen was also very nice, very large and open and I never felt like I was being crowded or without enough space. The staff were also available to help with anything or help with booking tours and trips.

The reception is very modern and comfy. Their staff is very helpful too. My room was very small and stuffed though... I think it was too small for 8 beds.... Not enough privacy at all and no space for luggage. I would choose something else next time

Security guards have a bad attitude, bed squeaked very badly so couldn’t sleep, shower was temperamental, AC didn’t always work. These weren’t a problem because the accommodation was fantastic.
Staff mostly lovely, good bar, nice rooms, amazing location, kitchen big, transport links great, very social, great activities, great en-suite, cheap drinks, fun reps for the nights, reception fun, space in rooms, lockers great. Highly recommend!! Really great for a solo traveller.

We were advised on check in that we had booked a budget room, although on booking.com it just states single bed in 10 bed dorm. We were taken to a seperate part of the building into a room with no windows air conditioning or fan. When I asked about the air conditioning at reception I was advised that this had been broken for a while and that they dont advertise as having it, they wouldnt even provide a fan, although there was one behind reception.
I like the location of the hostel as it's around all of the bars. It's pretty social and the free beer every night is a good way to meet people.

“The 20-bed dorm is a shill, it's got no AC or air circulation - better rooms are a few bucks upgrade”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 5 nights
It does attract a certain type of clientele - you'll likely have people making noise at 2am. Don't stay in a large dorm if you want a relaxing night's sleep.
The staff were great - Aussie dude with long hair was one of the best hostel staff members I've met on my travels. Spending the extra few dollars a night to get out of the 20-person dorm (which has no AC or indeed any air circulation) is key - it's literally a couple of bucks and improves your stay hugely.

“Below what I was expecting”
- • Leisure trip

Bedrooms were disappointing and very noisy the bar/club is so loud in the room even with ear plugs. Ceiling leaked (told by staff nothing can do but give towels where it is leaking), constantly bothered for ID outside, when someone walked past bed whole floor and bed shook, power was not working in the room for most of one day, the room seemed clean on the surface but not had proper clean in a while especially under the beds where I found cockroach, kitchen was the same with limited fridges, especially dirty in the stairwell down to the kitchen, TV room out of order, laundry was quite expensive. Disclaimer I am not big complainer normally but felt very disappointed especially after enjoying the Bunk in Surfers Paradise.
Location was good, reception/lounge was spacious and social, air con decent enough, no outside drinks allowed but drinks in bar aren't too expensive (which is good as you need to drink as so loud at night in the bedrooms)

On check-in, I wasn’t told the aircon in the room didn’t work and was horrible trying to sleep. It’s very easy to get dehydrated when you are constantly sweating.
Included breakfast was nice. Pool was nice. Happy to get moved to another room with aircon

The rooms are HORRIBLE. The beds are a layed out so you have privacy and your own pod-like area. This means it’s a bit anti social and you can’t really see or talk to anyone in your room. At Bunk in surfers paradise, this was ok because the rooms were nice and bright but the rooms in Bunk Brisbane were dark, dingy and filthy. I could barely sit in the room without feeling incredibly depressed, dirty and alone. Very misleading photos. Wouldn’t not recommend.
The reception area is really nice

The showers had no fan or anything to let out the steam, so it got really hard to get dressed, cause you were never 100% dry. Also, the kitchen should've had more cuttingboards, and not only those in glass. Had some problems with the stoves as well!
The staff was super helpful at all times, and very nive in general! And it was a lot of fun to share a room with 19 other people. It was a great experience all toghether! The kitchens were amazing as well! A lot of room and great equitment.

There were hair on the toilet when we checked in, the elevator smelled like rubbish juice all the time. The mattress was really thin,could easily feel the bed frame. Also the wall is paper thin,other guests constantly talk on the phone right outside our door until over midnight during our entire stay(I guess it’s because our room located in the end of the hallway next to the exit),basically we can hear every little sound in the hallway clearly and people can hear us too.
The public areas are stylish and friendly staff, good location.

I booked 4nights. I stayed J102 room which is 20 dorm. No ventilation system at all..no windows, no air conditioner. I woke up every 2hours because I was super sweaty and hot. And on the aisle, there was dead cockroach body. And the next day I took off the pillowcase to check out, the pillow was totally turned into YELLOW. Because of someone’s sweat. That’s why the room was so stinky. Even kitchen was full of cockroaches. I cooked dinner and had to throw all of them. Because huge cockroaches were hanging around on the table and right under my seat. So DISGUSTING. Also food shelves there was line of ant. They have bar and serving food to customers, that’s really worried about food safety. So I canceled my booking. And staff was not asking about the reason and proceed my cancellation. So disappointing. They don’t do any refunds. Totally ruined my Brisbane travle. 바퀴벌레천국에 배개 땀때매 노래져있음. 개더러우니 가지마셈 토나옴. 조식먹는거도 조심하셈 주방에 바퀴벌레왕큰거 개많음.
