The location was great for what we needed. We had a lovely city and river view from our room. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was very clean (aside the vent). Free parking at the property was good, but was a little confusing working out which spots could and could not be used. The pool and spa were nice. The bond was returned to us very quickly.
The bathroom was more dated and different to the ones in the photos, I note the check in information said about renovations but they are old dates unsure if maybe the renovations are still ongoing or not. The vent in the entry to the room was also quite visibly mouldy. In all honesty considering the price it would’ve been good to know what the bathroom looked like. I hope they’re being updated still as would definitely consider staying again.

It was right next door to the Mater private hospital. From the hospital we could access the Mater Hill train station. At the bottom of the hill on Vulture st we could access the train station where we could go into the city and also directly to and from the airport. Woolworths was also located at the train station. From this location also we could walk to Southbank.
The only cooking facility was a microwave., but we managed with microwave meals.

We’ve stayed here many times as it’s close to the children’s hospital. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, facilities are great and most rooms are clean and comfortable.
This time around the bathroom was very outdated, shower head was leaking and broken and didn’t seem very clean. The only other complaint is the noise from this particular room. Could hear our neighbours clear as day watching a movie until 1am and traffic noise. But I’m saying that not all rooms are like this!

Friendly and efficient service at check-in and check out. Lifts are large and quick. Room was clean and comfortable. Shower was great with plenty of pressure and flow. Plenty of outdoor carparks which is handy if you have a high vehicle. Underground is also available, although most parks are reserved.
Room is showing its age. Some of the fixtures and appliances had been knocked around and/or really needed replacing (e.g. wonky bedside lamps and a crappy iron and ironing board). However none of these issues really affected our stay.

The room was nice and clean. Convenient location. It's a shame the restaurant is closed. One staff member was very helpful and she even called us the next day as the cleaners had found an earring. It's easy to get in and out of the building at night. A pleasant stay.
The mattress of the single bed needed an upgrade as it was saggy.

Check-in was easy, room was nice, the balcony had an outdoor table and chairs, awesome view from our room, parking onsite was great, great location about a 5 min walk to Southbank Parklands area, friendly staff :)
The curtains were dirty, furniture is a little outdated, no in-room coffee machine, the laundry was not functioning on our level and the dryer on the next level was broken, we were only given 2 towels (there were 3 of us) and no flannels.

Location to Mater Private Hospital
Renovations being done. I understand it is necessity just unfortunate that it was when we were staying & sleep wasn’t at a premium so wanted it whenever we could get it & with work being done we didn’t always have that opportunity.

The Tv in the Lounge did not work and the one in the bedroom had no remote. I was staying in on the Friday night and if it had not been for the help of Dean I would of been disappointed. He went above and beyond in helping me out and replaced the TV in the lounge for me. Thanks Dean.
I personally think the price I paid was high but appreciate that there was football at the GABBA

Very clean and comfortable and in a great location for a great price. Person checking us in was hilarious and made the check in process easy and quick.
Little bit outdated, but expected for the price. And the cafe was closed in the morning, which was a little disappointing. The light switch in our room was in a really weird place and I nearly pressed the alarm buttons instead when returning home, whoops!

quite spacious room, with nice view and very nice receptionist (one was awesome, the other not so much with the people)
the walls are extra thin, I could hear the TV from the adjacent room, which was annoying, especially late at night
