Had a great 1 night stay here while in brisbane to go to a gig, room was clean, bed was comfortable, very close to eating options if you arent looking at going far. 1 downside was couldnt get netflix working on our TV so had to put up with horrible free to air but first world problems. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay again.

When I called and asked twice to have 3 beds made up in the family room, there were only 2 made up. I was assured on both occasions that tis would be done. This was a suprise for my sons 40th. Very disappointing.

Room great if only using to sleep in bed was comfortable. Had buffet breakfast for both days that stayed plenty to choose from on buffet but found the food wasn’t really hot both days I ate and on the second day didn’t even see anyone checking the hot food to see if there was anything that needed to be topped up even if was only a small amount to get through the next hour or so
