Brisbane Backpackers Resort is widely advertised across Australia and the ads make it sound like the greatest hostel on earth. This is definitely the place to be if you like to party -- everyday. This place has everything -- pool, tennis court, theme nights, a cheap bar, and a different inexpensive buffet every night. It seems to cater to a younger crowd.
The hostel is not far from downtown Brisbane. They run a shuttle every hour into the city. There is also a bus stop around the corner if you prefer public transportation or if you miss the hourly shuttle. They always have plenty of brochures out so you are never at a loss to find things to do.
All rooms are en-suite and have a fridge. Sheets are provided. And there's air conditioning in some rooms. You are not allowed to have your own alcohol in your room.
Overall, the place is pretty clean. The rooms are clean and someone comes in daily to clean up. The kitchen is just ok and not that clean, but it is usable. Be prepared for many people not to clean the pots and pans that they have used. If you are going to self-cater, you will need to put a deposit down for a set of dishes. You will get the deposit back when you return the full set of dishes.
There is a free, secure car park as well. However, if you're driving, make sure you have a good map that lists all of the one-way streets. Otherwise, getting to the hostel will be difficult.
Brisbane Backpackers Resort is a very social and fun place, but it's definitely not quiet.
