Guest Reviews
- Sanne (3/5): Was happy to leave - Beds are quite comfortable. Toilet and bathroom okay as well, could be cleaner/bigger as is shared with a lot of people and both genders A lot of the people staying there are disgusting. One girl below my bed was rolling a joint in her bed and the whole room smelled like weed. Also everyone and everything smells like weed. Even at the entrance there is a big weed smell and they smoke outside in front of the rooms so it goes through the window in the room. I only stayed 2 nights and there is a 24/7 weed smell. Also lot of people don’t know what manners are, people in my room just burp/fart without shame and cough without covering their mouths 🤢 Also a lot of people working in construction and their smelly clothes are hanging in the rooms + very messy stinky rooms. Kitchen is okay but a lot of people leave their dishes around and in the evening there’s barely any plates cause of that.. also saw one guy weighing his raw chicken on a scale without any plate/foil or something and didn’t even clean it. I bought my own plate, didn’t cook (only microwave) cause very questionable with the people there. Do not recommend to stay here unless you are really really on a budget. Even it’s not that cheap for what you get as well.

- brt (8/5): - Les personnes ne respectaient pas le sommeil des autres en mettant le film très fort. J étais dans une chambre fenêtre ouverte vu la chaleur et il y avait seulement un mur de parpaing qui séparait de l espace commun.

- Tiếp tân thân thiện, cho tôi check in sớm 2 tiếng
- phòng không có điều hoà nhưng có gần 10 cái quạt, khá thoáng đãng, không ồn ào. Bạn cùng phòng thân thiện
- tôi chỉ sử dụng phòng bếp, nhà tắm và vệ sinh, và cảm thấy ổn tuy là dùng chung nhưng mức độ sạch sẽ có thể chấp nhận Chỉ lưu trú ngắn hạn nên không yêu cầu cao, tất cả đều ổn

- mc (1/5): - didn't stay. they only accept foreign passports, which was not mentioned on booking.com app. wasted money on uber from airport bypassing better, affordable options.
- Judy (10/5): 推荐 - 员工特别友好,交通便利,距离热门地点都很近 床位有些拥挤
- Ciparo (7/5): - The stuff and the location. One tiny fan for the room.
- Albin (5/5): - No AC only loud fans, very warm
- Sukkarieh (1/5): - The welcoming The sleeping arrangements
- Lavarah (10/5): Was a home away from home. - The female only room was superb. My first impression was ' Wow, the toilets and the bathroom and kitchen were always kept clean by the staff. Even the rooms were vacuumed daily and occupants were encouraged to keep the room neat and tidy by organizing their things in a container. The bed side shelves were very good which enabled me to put my little things. Loved the wall fans as well.
Was very impressed to about the very low/no noise and alcohol free environment. Kitchen was nice and big enough for everyone to cook. The living area was great with a variety of comfortable sofas and benches. Also there is a small gym for those who may want to do workouts.
Location very convenient to common amenities like shops, bus stops and Roma Train Station. even 15 minutes walk across the bridge to Southbank. Property is very close to Suncorp stadium.
Staff were so friendly. I would highly recommend Habitat Backpackers as a choice Backpacker for International Travelers. Its a home away from home. Nothing.

- Sophie (3/5): Location and staff were brilliant but unfortunately the lack of Air Con caused the room to be unbearable at points - Staff were very friendly, beds were comfortable and had a big kitchen. The room was extremely hot, it was unbearable at points.

- Francesca (2/5): I wish I could have walked out but it was too late in the day. - The lady at the front desk and the two nice girls I shared my room. Excessive marijuana smoke.
- maura (7/5): -
- Jäger (7/5): - Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Die Duschen und Schlafsäle waren sauber und ordentlich. Im Frauenschlafsaal war genug Platz, nur keine Möglichkeit seine Koffer oder Wertsachen einzuschließen. Gesamtes Hostel und Schlafsäle nur mit Schlüsselkarte zugänglich.
Die Küche war geräumig und gut ausgestattet. Leider gab es nur Ventilatoren im Hostel (sowohl im Zimmer als auch in der Küche und Aufenthaltsraum) wodurch es dort recht warm war.
- Conie-An (9/5): - Staff and facilities. The laundry area was awesome Lack of airconditioning in the rooms
- Feven (8/5): - The staff were really friendly and welcoming!
Great location for getting around the city.
Very large kitchen and common areas!
Perfect for a stay of a few days! My room had two giant fans that were very noisy, especially at night. Shared bathroom for both sexes, and both the toilets and showers are very small.
Cleaning is done, but very lightly.
- Sayul (5/5): - 위치가 좋고 직원들이 친절한 대신 시설은 다소 빈약합니다. 화장실을 지저분하게 쓰는 사용자가 있어 놀랐습니다. 화장실 청소를 자주 해야할 것 같아요. 샤워 부스가 좁습니다.
- Sebastian (4/5): For the price it's okay - The staff is really good, really nice and try to the best to be cool and work with what they have. I know the price is really fair, and I was prepared to have an experience according to it. However, what I can’t accept is that they didn’t have enough cutlery. For example, I went to have lunch and needed a fork, but there was none available.

- Meixue (5/5): - The location is fine, and that’s it There's no air conditioning. It's like being in a steamer in the summer. When I checked in someone suddenly cut in and complained, and instead of dealing with them in order, the receptionist left me there with him to listen to the complaining
- Mateo (10/5): -
- Kym (10/5): Cheers heaps!! - Awesome place.. not a party joint.. but definitely a good place to recover between them!! Staff were amazing, even when I was a little bit tardy after coming home after 15 years... That I totally didn't stay longer! Great homely vibes friendly staff, comfortable little beds that were back friendly and all the people staying were quite thoughtful and respectful to guidelines... Really shows well managed places and ways to uphold the integrity in times we find it hard to get good value out of these luxury moments
- Leah (9/5): Value for - Location to Suncorp was walking distance (5min) No air conditioning
- Robert (1/5): Verschikkelijk - Het personeel De kamers, keuken, toiletten, douches, gezamenlijke ruimte, opslag voedsel, luchtkwaliteit, hygiene
- Sarah (7/5): -
- Lukas (7/5): - After my stay there, i got a lot of scam messages
- Gaurav (8/5): Good place for the $buck$ - Accommodation is proper , friendly staff, adequate amenities. Just a bit too crowded not with people but stuff haphazardly lying in rooms. And sweaty crew roomates.
- Megan (6/5): - Location made it easy to access public transport. Super friendly and helpful staff. Bathrooms could do with more regular clean and deep cleans since they where shared with alot of people
- Amelia (3/5): Really disappointed, if I knew the rooms would be small and hot with no AC I wouldn't have booked. - The location is really convenient from the bus stop! Really close to the CBD really easy to get in and out of town.
The staff are really lovely! The room was small and not ventilated. upon walking into the room there was 2 fans blowing around hot air and the smell of damp as others were using the room to dry their clothes. It was 37 degrees the day I arrived and having no AC or way to cool down was so uncomfortable.
Room was messy and dirty, floors and walls had clearly not been cleaned in a long time.
- Felipe Sales (4/5): -
- Rex (10/5): - the fan was number 1 for me kept me cool all night long , the staff were great very accommodating, the facility was relaxed and well layed out leaving
- Daiki (10/5): -
- Sachi (3/5): Pretty crazy - The location was super convenient and handy which was nice and everyone was super nice So the dorm is like a giant slum with 14 beds or bunk beds strewn across a room. Anyway there is no air con with 3 loud fans that are super mouldy and dusty loud right above my pillow and it was so hot in the room (hotter than outside) I actually could not believe the living conditions however I guess you get what you pay for..
The bathrooms were not clean and just gross shared with men who just pee all over the toilet seat
I could only last one night there
- Gaurav (9/5): Delightful stay. - Staff member really cooperative and helpful, plenty of room to relax outside of room. Tidy places all around, and services provided are well worth the buck. I couldn't think of one.
- Kristof (5/5): -
- Kristine (1/5): - No ventilation, no AC, shared toilet is dirty. Rooms has fan but not helping.

- Andreja (10/5): -
- Guillaume (1/5): - They didn’t refound me , that’s not fair
- Gaurav (7/5): Comfort and Convenience - The convenience of location is really helpful. The reception staff is cooperative, and overall the place is tidy enough to appreciate the best bits even highly about the place. Getting on and off bed is a hassle, as the metallic rods dig deeper increasing pressure on foot which makes the whole experience rather unpleasant.
- Amandine (8/5): Good value - Location, good staff, facilities Bathroom could be a bit better
- Gaurav (7/5): -
- Eleonora (5/5): -
- Shannon-Ly (2/5): A fuir... - L'auberge est plutôt bien située et le staff est sympa Auberge vraiment à fuir. Les parties communes se résument à un hangar où on se retrouve à moitié à l'extérieur. Tout est sale, il n'y a pas de clim, juste des ventilateurs très poussiéreux, il fait donc affreusement chaud lors des fortes chaleurs. Les sanitaires sont mixes, pas très propre et il n'y a pas de casiers dans les chambres. Le soir il y a beaucoup de monde qui cuisine, il y a très peu d'ustensiles et les plaques ne fonctionnent pas bien. Le WiFi fonctionne très mal, sauf à l'accueil. Bref, si vous n'avez vraiment pas les moyens ça passe pour 1 ou 2 nuits, sinon allez ailleurs.

- Abby (8/5): Good budget hostel for basic needs, nice staff and common area. - Very helpful staff and nice common area. Typical hostel set up, co-ed bathrooms and nice outdoor living room area with tvs. Location very close to many things. Quite small showers with few hooks so clothes got wet and many people seemed to be living there so all of their stuff a bit spread out.

- Kathryn (7/5): - The hotel staff were so friendly and helpful. The location was amazing, less than a 10 minute walk to Roma street station, the river and a Coles supermarket. The staff were so kind to upgrade us to a private room with bunk bed rather than a dorm as I was travelling with my mother. The facilities were great as there was a huge kitchen with lots of fridges, a large area to relax, laundry facilities and even a small gym and a ping pong table. The room was very basic with just the bunk bed. The other guests left dirty dishes in the kitchen and they were so loud chatting, banging doors and shouting all night long, we didn't get any sleep at all. As the reception closes early there was no one to check on the noise level.
- Aamir (10/5): Worth a stay - Almost everything. Staff was very supportive and caring. They need to keep a whatsapp number for convenience of guests.
