Convenient location on the Southbank. Easy to find and plenty to do within walking distance.
Pros:

The location was perfect for my visit. The room was comfortable and it is great to have a kitchenette and seperate living area.

Cons:

The rooms felt functional. I feel the rooms could provide some warmth or personality through decor.

Great value for money in a perfect location,
Pros:

We had a stopover night in Brisbane before travelling north. There were 7 of us ranging from 13 - 51 years. We ate dinner nearby, had a lovely look at the view from the deck and really our stay was hassle free and easy.
