Thankfully we didn't end up staying here. Their website is wrong. they dont even have one of the dorms that is advertised (the cheapest one). the prices they gave us also didnt match the ones on the website. Although the website says they accept drivers licenses they don't. You have to take your passport in which was not acceptable for... More

Arriving in Brisbane, we saw Cloud 9 had dorm beds for $19 a night on a blackboard outside although the cheapest they had for us was $21. Unfortunately, we paid before seeing the room. Judging by the kitchen, I didn't expect it to be a palace but wasn't prepared for what I found. It was shocking. The 16 bed room... More

Honestly, this is the WORST backpacker's accomodation I've stayed in EVER. I'm not a fussy traveller by any means, but there literally isn't anything nice I can say about this place except that it has a great location. The whole place would be improved by implosion. More

We stayed here for one night entirely because of it's CHEAP price in comparison to it's neighbours. The room was an average 10 bed dorm. The people in our room were lovely but in the middle of the night there was a massive party in one of the rooms (no alcohol policy in the hostel) and the girl working in... More

So, I checked into Cloud 9 at the beginning of December for what was planned as two weeks. Almost 7 months later I finally left the place that is honestly like my second home. This is definately the best place I've ever stayed in. Everyone there was so friendly and down to earth, even the staff are awesome. I made... More

We checked in to a 4 dorm room which we paid $24 for. The receptionist was nice enough but didn't speak great english and we later learnt that it's only really backpackers who run the place with explains the lack of organisation in the place. So the room was awful. It was tiny and there were two long stay guys... More
