Amenities were good the rooms were clean. The showerhead is way to big to be in a shower that size you were pressed up to the corner trying to get out of the water and the beds were rather uncomfortable

Cleaning of room way below expectations for a Brisabne city Hotel. Noise was really bad, car park was a disgrace, to charge for parking $30 extra. One staff member at counter needs to go back to Customer service school.

The staff were consistently attentive, responsive, and courteous—assisting with every request and making it a real highlight. The hotel's location is excellent and fully met expectations. As advertised on the website and during booking, the property is undergoing renovation. We expected some work, but our room was assigned right next to active areas. The lift lobby and corridor was in a mess with protective sheets and debris on the floor. renovation rooms left open/unattended, and the corridor had dust, debris, and dirt—making it feel disruptive, somewhat insecure, and unclean. Our room appeared recently renovated/upgraded. Positives included practical modern touches: new power outlets with USB ports, bedside reading lights, and conveniently placed switches. However, the quality felt inconsistent and rushed. Bathroom polished tiles extremely slippery when wet (safety concern, especially for elderly or mobility-impaired guests). Unusually high shower curb, awkward/difficult for some. loose wall covering below ventilation, exposed data cables at wall-ceiling corner, visible trunking to light fixture, incorrectly installed door chain.

The hotel was under reconstruction and elevator was full of dirt and dust. I haven't been notified about those conditions and not discounted for experiencing this discomfort. Staff was lovely. Room was specious but dark, it is not possible to adjust shower so your hair will get wet if you enter the shower - I forgot my comb so I looked very bad for next meeting because of this shower issue. No shower gel in shower either.
