There is major construction directly opposite the building. Expect drilling to start from around 6:00 am each morning. Noise from nearby pubs can also continue until around midnight. If you’re a light sleeper, I’d recommend bringing earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones.

It was fairly clean and modern, very small, no couch. There was no furniture on the balcony which we had to request. It was very expensive for minimal standard and parking an additional $40. I guess you pay for the location which was very good but overall not value for money, to be fair this applies to most accommodation in Brisbane.
