GRETA HOLIDAY
Pros:

The manager was excellent. Nothing was a problem. A dip in the saltwater pool ever day was an anodyne for the heat and humidity of the day. Barbies by the pool was a bonus. the kitchen was a full-on kitchen where we cooked some full-on meals, and it had all the utensils to do that. Full on laundry and dryer. Fridge was large and great. beds were very comfortable. the 2 balconies' with completely different aspects were great. all linen was supplied. it was very clean. 2 tellies one a bit old but we didn't watch much if any tv. some of the furniture and carpets were a bit tired and one of the 2 air conditioners was getting on but then so am i. great thing was location, restaurants close after a moderate 10 min walk. Bus stop and ferry and train 3 and 5 minutes and 5 minutes respectively away. But most days we just walked to Brisbane which was an easy 30 minutes. oh, and there's an off-street car spot if required. The big question is "would i stay there again?" and the answer is yes definitely. BUT DONT GO WHEN STATE OF ORIGIN IS ON IF YOU DONT LIKE CROWDS AND NOISE. GO THE MAROONS..

Pros:

It was in a great location and handy for what we needed!
It was very spacious.
It was inexpensive and served its purpose for a 1 night stay.

Cons:

The towels that were folded up on the end of our beds were very wet, it was like they had come straight out of the washing machine and then rolled up and put at end of the bed.. which in turn they smelt bad.
Furniture dated and couch has no springs so you just sink when you sit on it.

Good location, but cleanliness and maintenance were disappointing.
Pros:

The kitchen was well-equipped with utensils, and the facilities were good and matched the description in the advert. The location is convenient, being close to the main city, and even offers a small view of the Brisbane Wheel.

Cons:

The bathrooms were not clean and had mould. The first apartment we were given was quite old and had mould in the air conditioning. After raising this with the apartment manager, we were moved to another apartment. While it was better, it still wasn’t properly cleaned and clearly needs refurbishment.
