This is a great value option close to the Brisbane CBD. There is a small supermarket across the road and the Pineapple Hotel with excellent meals is virtually next door. The rooms are quite large and even though the property is probably quite old, they have kept it up to date and employ lovely staff. We will certainly stay again.

Perfect for our overnight stay in Brisbane. The appartments are in a great location, walking distance to restaurants, and grocery stores. With a great pub a couple of minute walk. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and fresh and had everything you could want for short stay and the bonus of parking available. We will certainly stay here again.
