Disappointing! If only I could include photos!! The apartment room pictures online definitely didn’t match what we walked into. The room was below par, especially the bedroom. Patchy paint, cords hanging from bed head/bed side table along with it not being attached to the wall properly. The carpet was tattered, smoke detector exposed - functional? Who knows. No valance on the bed, ensemble base stained, fan was clunky and not working properly, bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly & only one plate in the whole apartment kitchen. The only thing going for it was the amazing view and location. I’ve paid less in Southbank for a nicer room! All in all, disappointing.

An amazing view

We arrived during the stated reception hours, but reception was closed. We phoned the number on the front door and were let into the building and guided through obtaining our key from the lock box, so it wasn't a problem. The apartment was a good size and clean. It had a long balcony, running the length of the apartment, which was great. The view over Brisbane City, the river and Southbank was amazing. We often sat out on the balcony just enjoying the view. We enjoyed our two night stay at this property and would stay again.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room was very small, the bedside lamp only worked when plugged into a very old power board and plugged into a powerpoint on a side wall, creating an obstacle to manoeuvre around to get into bed. small outdated bathroom. More signs around the property about rules and banned activities than facilities available. Was way overpriced for the standard of room. The view was as advertised.

Excellent location right on the river. Beautiful view from our apartment. Some aspects looking a bit tired. Pool wasn’t particularly clean but the room itself was clean and tidy. Really easy check in and very accomodating staff - helped us check in and store our luggage even though we were well ahead of the check in time.
