Very basic amenities, but location is good. Apartment was very spacious with kitchen, TV, dining area, bathroom and balcony. WIFI is very poor quality, drops out and is complicated to connect. Balcony and living area looks directly into an office building. Bathroom could use a proper wipe down and mop. I believe the pool is out of service. Think of this more as a bed at motel quality - don't have high expectations but it does the job!

Property location was great, love the carpark but hard to find one as most are taken, love the surrounding, shops, walking distances to pretty much what we need. But our appartment, the main bedroom, no curtains, was hard to sleep lights at night and in the morning, all day, toilet in the onsuite seal is broken, can be dangerous.

Tariff was obviously based on location. No double lock on front door, mismatched furniture. Bathroom not clean, toilet seat would not stay up. No curtain on window in bedroom. Pillows were cheap and very uncomfortable. Wifi would not work. Very disappointing. Never stay again

Centrally located accommodation right in the heart of the Brisbane CBD. The retrofitted hotel apartments offer large rooms with lounge and kitchen - suitable for family stay, etc. The close proximity to CBD also means that significant noise can be expected, particularly on weekend nights.

No locks and people intruding
Fantastic location. Thats where the positives end. I booked Macarthur Chambers for 12 nights. When I arrived to the unit, it obviously had not had a thorough clean. The walls and doors were dirty, the dishwasher smelt like old food and the kettle was unusable (it had a peeling film on the inside of the jug). The hotel lacked basic communication, I had an electrician, not once but twice swipe into my room without knocking and no notification despite me telling reception twice to please not let anyone into my room. There is no lock on the inside of the door and I felt unsafe enough to have a chair against the door when in the unit. The room says they do houseservicing every 7 days, this was never offered to me. The Wifi also doesnt work.

The check-in process was not as smooth as it could be. My colleague checked in after 6 pm and there was nobody at the desk. We did not expect that and that was a challenge. Wi-Fi service really slow and not usable

I feel the parking at the property should have been explained prior to arrival. The apartments furniture could do with a bit of an upgrade. Great central location in a beautiful heritage building.

Excellent location right next to a lot of the shops that I needed away from the much high end shops on queen street. Check in was terrible. Check in date was on a weekend and it is unstaffed thus I was left outside with no communication and instructions on how to check in. The after hours line did not answer my calls had to get Expedia to intervene. Apartment is fantastic. However the bed is single which is not an ideal size for me personally.

Good rooms, well laid out kitchen and laundry. Right in the middle of the city, so very easy access to shops and transport. Check in easy but the only issue is if you have a car, getting access pass to the carpark. You have to very quickly park in Edward st, get the pass then proceed to carpark in Elizabeth St. Overall great stay

Pros: ± Prime location ± Spacious accommodations ± Friendly staff members Cons: ± Numerous maintenance issues, including a broken toilet button, malfunctioning bathroom door, a toilet roll holder that was temporarily secured with bandaids, a flickering light and curtains stained and detached from rails ± The bathroom door had detached, and a male staff member at reception informed us that we would be responsible for the repair costs, which was quite a frustrating experience given the general maintenance of the property. ± The air conditioning in the property had an overpowering fragrance. ± Reception services were only available during business hours and not on weekends. ± There was no secure storage available for luggage before check-in or after check-out.
