Hotel YHA Hostel a Brisbane

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 :)
