The only reason I dropped a star was because this was my second stay in the last month and on both occasions, the emergency alarm went off in the early hours of the morning and lasted for ages waiting for the fire brigade to arrive. The first time it happened another guest said it had happened the night before. You seriously need to get this alarm fixed because on neither of the 3 occasions was there an actual emergency. Otherwise great place to stay.

We were only here for one night as we arrived late into Brisbane. Handy to airport. Breakfast was included but one of our group forgot to put their watch back so we were up at 6.00am and left early before we go to see what the breakfast was like . Apartment was comfortable.

It was so nice to be able to walk across the road to my accommodation each day after a long day visiting my partner at the hospital. No driving, no traffic. Shopping centre only 5 minutes away, so I was able to buy everything I needed for the week. The vending machines in the complex even had meals. Would recommend for anyone wanting good accommodation near Prince Charles or St Vincents Chermside.

Everything hung was excellent. The only downside was the shower. The floor is very flat for the accessibility bot it meant the water flowed over the entire bathroom floor.

Very good location, especially for anyone who has family at St Vincent or Prince Charles hospital. Essence is right next door. Spacious apartment, included kitchenette with oven, cooktop and dishwasher. Short walk to nearby Aldi and just a few minutes drive to Westfield Chermside. Secure parking. There is also a vending machine on level 1 with decent Brubecks meals you can easily heat in the microwave. A very convenient property.

The unit was quite large and modern. Asked for an early check in by 2 hrs and called each day for 2 days to confirm only to get there and it wasn't available for the time agreed. Other than that it was perfect 😊

Conveniently located for Chermside and Prince Charles Hospital with free onsite security parking. The 2 bedroom apartment we had was a little small and dated for the price but it was good to have a choice of 2 king beds or singles and a light breakfast provided at reception. There was a lack of PowerPoints in the bedrooms but the main issue was noise. The air conditioner vent was so noisy we could not have it on overnight and traffic noise was an issue from 5 am.

Close to everything, great layout, great kitchen & huge bathroom, comfy bed, super quiet inside considering some of the traffic, lift was handy, good being on the top floor, great balcony and non-city/housing views, kitchen & bathroom could've been a bit cleaner, would definitely stay again
