Hi, We were pleasantly surprised at how well the room worked at for our overnight stay while on layover in Brisbane. The motel receptionist was very nice, as was the shuttle driver who drove us to the airport promptly. The room was clean and neat with a well lit bathroom and good water pressure. We would definitely stay again if we found ourselves in the area for a layover.

It’s an old worn out room with plates and cutlery all sitting in the drainer in the sink! 1 fork, 1 teaspoon .I can’t believe we were charged so much for crap like this. I am mortified. There are Gorgeous hotels near the airport 1/2 the price of this crap..
