Very easy to get to and free on site parking. The apartment I stayed in was a bit dated but clean. The restaurant on site is incredibly good value. Very short walk to the cultural precinct and the south Bank Parklands. Train and bus services also very close by.

Property itself was nice inside for the price, but the room I had, had zero natural light it was very dim the outside was just dirt and trees blocked every bit of natural light. The lights inside were crap so felt like I was in a prison cell. The patio needed a good wash.

My stay was probably marred by the fact I arrived late after a big day of travel and my ground floor room's window opened onto the rubbish bins. Hot wet garbage smells and followed up by noise at 5AM next morning throwing rubbish into said bins. At least i didn't pay too much for this stay, but the stay did not live up to the advertising.

Staff was top notch facilities meh not so much

The staff was incredibly helpful, courteous and pleasant however the facility itself wasnt great . I would categorize it as a motel not hotel . The tv didn’t work , I had issues with access to the laundry room ( got locked out ) I was only there 5 days so I didn’t want to complain to much but if another trip to Brisbane is in the future I d be looking elsewhere for my stay

Room was adequate but needed work - curtains sagging and let in light, mattresses lumpy and needed replacement. The location of the hotel was excellent if you want to be close to the cultural precinct in Southbank and close to good restaurants.
