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.

Stayed here a couple times already and always been great. Room is quite clean,no funny smells even their bed sheets, blankets, pillows and pillow cases smells fresh/launderd. They have a secure carpark but a bit cramped and taller vehicles like above 2m won't fit, standard height SUVs should be fine.
