Very happy, would stay again if the need arose
Pros:

The rooms are very large with high ceilings. Very comfy bed with big windows and blackout or sheer curtains.

Cons:

There is no on site restaurant aside from a separate seafood restaurant and there are a lack of options close by/within walking distance.

Pros:

Value for money

Cons:

Toilet layout
No couch or comfortable armchair just bench and a couple of dining chairs.
Whilst the room was clean, the shower had a lot of mould in the silicone/ grout so made us feel a bit dirty.
Also no cafe for breakfast at the hotel, although a couple down the street and across the road.

Stinky, grimy, don’t be fooled by a few nice photos
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Did not meet expectations of photos, this place is extremely outdated as If it was taken over with a minor lick of paint but it is shabby as.
The room stank like drain pipes, the bathrooms had rust and grime, the walls were dirty, the bed was awful, the iron was 50 years old with rust and grime coming out of it.
This is motel quality at hotel prices

A bit disappointing for the price we paid for our 3 night stay, expected a bigger 2br apartment.
Pros:

Nice hotel, bit gloomy inside, no balcony in their 2 br apartments which is strange, only small apart. Didn’t get serviced the first night, even though it was supposed to be. Asked for clean towels the 3rd day and didn’t get them for over 2 hours.

Cons:

Had to wait for over an hour in reception as our room wasn’t ready - even though we were there after check-in time. Very annoying as we had been up early travelling to Qld.

Enjoy the pool and amenities but this is second time staying here and would come again.
Pros:

The pool, the spacious rooms and high ceilings and lots of daylight

Cons:

The sulphur/sewage smell coming through the bathroom floor drain.
The bed. The bed is shit. Room 306.
The mattress sinks and woke up two nights with a sore back.
Bed mattress needs to be replaced.

A relaxing weekend in Spring Hill
Pros:

Large comfortable studio with high ceilings. Very quiet room especially as it was a Saturday night in Spring Hill

Cons:

Parking fee at $30 a night is a little high for a weekend. A parking station across the road is only $15 plus free street parking on weekends is an option.

Good value, well appointed hotel.
Pros:

We enjoyed our night at The Johnson Hotel. The facilities - gym and pool were great and the apartment had everything we needed. The beds were very comfy.

Cons:

There was a slight smell in one of the bathrooms and one of the bedroom windows had a strange metal mesh on it that didn’t fit correctly.
