Pleasant stay. The staff went out of their way to help with a suitable room for us. The bar staff need training on what
Cons:

We paid for an upgrade to a harbour view and there is no actual harbour in Brisbane. We overlooked a construction site

A comfortable and pleasant stay with friendly staff on reception
Pros:

Very handy for shops, cafes and restaurants and within walking distance of the city sights. Modern hotel in good location. Liked the all inclusive buffet breakfast, good selection of food, hot or cold.

Cons:

Front entrance steps blocked off for unknown reason. Had to walk up the driveway with cars entering and leaving.

Pros:

The room was ok , location was great

Cons:

No twin beds available despite this being an option on booking.com, I wouldn't have booked it if I knew that ahead of time. A parking fee was charged on arrival however this was not mentioned at time of booking. Breakfast wasn't great, scrambled eggs were watery no bacon available and rice was not hot. Overall I wouldn't stay again
