.Lacking bedding
Pros:

Shower pressure. Good aircon in both rooms

Cons:

Only 2 very skinny pillows on the bed and one polyester fleece blanket. No extra blankets or pillows so not a comfortable night sleep.

Conveniently located
Pros:

If you need to stay on the north side, the apartments are very conveniently located, just a short walk from the train station, RBWH precinct and UQ campus, and Fortitude Valley for bars, restaurants and shops. It’s also a short drive to the Brisbane airport. I enjoyed that the apartments had a kitchenette and were generously sized. Other amenities were available in the building but I didn’t get to use them. A late night check in was possible over the phone.

Cons:

Unfortunately, I was unlucky with a very noisy neighbours partying in the apartment next to me the first night, but the staff were understanding and overall helpful with anything I needed through the stay. The apartment itself was clean, but there was water dripping from the ceiling in the shower every time the shower was running. I didn’t receive any communication or instructions prior to the arrival, except for the property approving my request for a late check-in via Booking.com. When I arrived close to 11pm, the front door was locked and no one in sight, I had to call the number from the reservation and explain my situation. The person on the other end started to ask for my card details for a deposit and a photo of my driver licence and credit card to upload to their portal. While I understand this is the usual information required at check-in, it can raise suspicions and discomfort if you don’t like providing such information over the phone to a stranger without any prior communication. It would have been helpful if an email or SMS with instructions was provided prior to the arrival to help both parties navigate the check-in more comfortably.

The building and design is great but the furniture is very budget and can use better cleaning especially the blinds.
Pros:

Location is ok.

Cons:

Cheap furniture, uncomfortable bed, tiny couch and TV.
The walls have visible damage marks and the blinds are dirty.
Budget shower glass that barely covers the shower.

Stayed numerous times here but very disappointed this time round.
Pros:

The location and the parking is pretty good for what we needed.
The staff where really pleasant and the reception area is quite presentable walking in.
Contact with the property is really good prior to arrival.
Towels and bed linen were lovely and clean.
We mentioned to the reception staff regarding my concerns below and they were courteous and polite.
We also mentioned to the staff that we see this NOT as a complaint but a reminder to the owner's of the apartments that when guests are paying to stay at their accommodation, they need to be mindful of people's standards and values.

Cons:

Very disappointed in the presentation once we opened the door of the apartment.
It is in need of a really good clean up and some money spent on the upkeep and maintenance of the apartments furniture.
The edging on the white furniture had been torn off and left to deteriorate.
The bedside lampshade trims had been torn off and left to go brown and ugly.
The drains were smelly, the toilet wasn't cleaned properly. The toilet was leaking water around the base, we had to place a towel on the floor.
Shower shelf had been removed off the wall and just two screw holes left.
Shower head was dirty and badly stained.
The lights, air conditioners, doorways/frames, blinds, window sills and around ceiling lights were dirty and lack maintenance.
For $185 we expected to feel fresh when we left.
