Perfect City View

Lovely modern apartment. Comfortable beds. Good shower.
Fantastic view. Ideal position to explore Southbank.

Sofa bed in lounge was uncomfortable to sit on.
Extra comfortable seating would have been a bonus, especially as the apartment caters for 6 people.
Couldn't connect to wifi.

Pros:

Spacious, clean, comfortable and affordable with great view of Brisbane city. It has full kitchen facilities that makes cooking for 6 adults, 2 tweens and 1 baby very convenient.

Cons:

Just the dual shower knobs and the non removable shower head making it a little harder to adjust the right temperature and shower for kids.

Pros:

Great location but the bed was very uncomfortable. It felt old and sagged in the middle. Hard to get a good nice sleep on. Especially when you’ve paid $1000 for 3 nights.

Cons:

See above

The view and the staff were amazing and went of their way to help make our stay enjoyable.
Pros:

Great location, the view was amazing and the staff were very helpful.

Cons:

The unit we stayed in (number 61) was in need of some TLC. It was very tired looking and required maintenance. It also lacked basics such as bedside lamps and enough crockery and utensils for larger families.

We had an excellent stay here and would highly recommend for the facilities and the location.
Pros:

Excellent location and the apartment was very well presented.

Cons:

Single glazing meant the city noise was loud even with the doors and windows closed.
