Ideally located in Brisbane's CBD!
Previous guests rated the property's location highly! The renowned Brisbane's south bank recreational area and the Cultural Centre is only a ten-minute walk away via the Victoria Bridge. The Roma Train Station and the St George Square train and bus station are also well within walking distance.

Lacks basic room appliances
Guests were quite disappointed after entering their rooms and finding out that some of the basic appliances were not included. In some rooms, there were no coffee makers, no kitchenette, and no safe. Some even said there were no kitchen utensils and had to request them at the front desk.
negative:
Terrible bathroom facilities
Many of the previous guests were annoyed that the bathroom was so small. They even compared the bathroom to a cupboard. The small space made it difficult for them to use the toilet. Others also complained about the leaking of the faucets and other bathroom fixtures.
negative:
Rooms are not thoroughly cleaned
According to most guests, the rooms weren't cleaned very well. They felt that the carpet needed to be vacuumed more thoroughly. Moreover, some guests still found garbage and other traces of previous occupants under their beds.
