All in all, very disappointing
Pros:

The location was excellent.

Cons:

Unfortunately this was a really disappointing stay. Instructions for after hours check in came through very late and then the QR code system didn’t work. Access to the carpark was also difficult and the remote to the gate stopped working. The apartment itself was in pretty average condition - ripped and stained couch, marks on the walls and curtains.

Fantastic Location, Fantastic Staff
Pros:

We were upgraded to a corner two bedroom unit with an absolutely huge patio versus a balcony. We even got takeaway instead of eating at a restaurant just to eat on the patio and enjoy the night time view of the city. The hotel is located between South Bank Parklands and the West Village Shopping Precinct, both very desirable destinations. The staff was very helpful with every aspect of our stay. We were even able to purchase a late 1 pm checkout.

Cons:

Our parking spot was under Tower 1 and we were staying in Tower 2, so direct elevator access to our parking area was not an option.

Good location and clean
Pros:

The location is fantastic, and the two-bedroom apartment was really good, with a kitchen and a terrace. It was clean—maybe it would help to leave a bit of oil, salt, and pepper—but otherwise everything else was great.

Cons:

Although I had sent all my personal information (email, etc.) to receive the check-in instructions, I didn’t receive anything in time. As a result, I had to manage on my own by stopping a woman who was leaving the building and asking to borrow her phone so I could contact reception. I didn’t have an Australian number, only internet access, and even when I tried sending messages, no one responded ! I was very frustrated and my friends lost patience waiting in the street. I am very grateful to the kind lady who helped me retrieve the apartment key.

Great place to stay in Brisbane
Pros:

Great location in the West Village - great places to eat and connected to city well. Apartment very spacious and clean - had everything we needed

Cons:

No Netflix and had to pay for parking per night which is a lot when you stay for 8 days. Also kids in the pool not being looked after by parents - need some child-free times

Convenient, tired. Needs a refurb
Pros:

I like the convenience. Gym is really good, location to west end and the staff are lovely.

Cons:

It’s very tired. I’ve stayed here several time over the course of about 8 years. Carpets are worn /ripped in parts. Bathroom doesn’t feel clean due to rust and limescale buildup. Bins in kitchen were filthy. Could do with some scissors in kitchen. No pictures or rug to make it more cosy.
