- Avg. price/night: US$127.01Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.9Good - What previous guests thought, 1,015 reviewsgreat location in fortitude valley. very smart for a hostel. the hostel has its own bar / club with cheap drinks. a free drink was on offer at 8pm which was a good opportunity to meet other travellers. very friendly staff from the front desk to bar to security. despite all this we had no trouble sleeping, no noise issues, etc. although that could be due to the placement of the room we had. my friend and I had a twin ensuite room which was comfortable and clean.Guest review byLiamPeople with friends
