Find somewhere else
Another Summerhouse, another round of dodging the dirt. Showers are disgusting, hallways are dirty (carpets haven't been washed in years), kitchen is full of flies and REALLY SMALL. Nowhere to hang out, everything looks like has been attended to by a 3 year old and even that is generous.

Reception open long hours and staff very friendly and helpful. Peterpan travel office is attached to the lobby and they are also great...very helpful with booking travel and helping you find work. They also host regular social events and pub crawls...great if you are looking to meet new people. Kitchen and eating area too small for # of guests. Only 2 fridges (always packed) 2 ranges (always in use) and 2 sinks (often full of dirty dishes or food scraps). Breakfast pretty standard...toast, jam, peanut butter, cereal, coffee, tea. However there are so many people competing for space in the kitchen or at a table it feels more like a rugby scrum. Ask for a room with a window! Mine did not have one and it was dark, damp, a little stuffy and smelly. It was small and had very little storagr, However as a 4-bed mixed with no ensuite it did not seem very popular and was never full. Cleanliness...not a priority. Everything felt a little grungy, bathrooms were cleaned regularly however they were too small for the # of people using them so the floor and counters were almost always wet. Two things that I found especially problematic: dish towels in the kitchen were few and always in use, therefore always wet...very unhygienic. Also, they change the covers on the blankets between guests (as they should) however I witnessed staff laying the clean covers on the grody carpet to do it, so be aware that your "clean" linen might not be as clean as you think it is.

The place to stay
My second time staying here and if I'm ever in Brisbane I would stay again. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, the kitchen is to small but the hostel itself if all you need when in Brisbane. Location is amazing, just a few minutes walk from the main bus and train station and also Coles. Awesome.

Nice hostel
Your right near everything you could need, the city is very nice to just walk around for a day or 2 to look at things. The hostel is nice, I stayed in a 20 bed dorm and slept surprisingly well. I was lucky to get a bottom bunk with a wall on one side of me far from the door though, which I am sure made a difference to that. The staff was very helpful and friendly. If anything.. The kitchen was well to small, 2 stove tops but right beside each other so diner times were a bit hectic.

Stayed here for one night at the 4 bed female dorm with ensuite. Facility close enough to walk to Queen street mall and transportation options are plenty around. Basic breakfast with choice of cereals and bread with jam/spread/p.butter/ coffee and tea. It was good for one night at a feasible price. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Stored my luggage until checkout day evening.Only discomfort was the bed and the dusky smell in the room due to the girls hangout their washings.

HOSTILE HOSTEL
My experience at this hostel was one that I will remember for the rest of my life. I had never done a hostel before and due to my experience I will never stay in one ever again. Upon arrival, staff was friendly and did inform us about their policies. The room I stayed in had 20 people and there was very poor ventilation and it smelled like rotten feet. There was loud music at the facilities and it felt like a hostile environment. I was so anxious that I woke up at many points in the night and even decided to leave as early as 6 am.

Dirty, noisy Hostel - not worth it
This is probably the worst Hostel I've stayed at in my life, and I've stayed in well over 30 hostels in my travels. This place is falling apart. There is a horrible odour in the hallways, the walls are falling apart, the curtains don't close, etc. It also doesn't help that they attract primarily the party crowd through the events that they hold. Therefore, don't expect a good night of sleep. I recommend this Hostel only if you are an 18-20 year old looking to party. Otherwise, steer clear of this one
