Good location rooms are clean and good views of the river and South Bank, don’t arrive at 14:00. Hrs to check in the Q to check in is horrendous and the check in process is slow.

Brisbane Skytower Apartments by CLLIX
Nice location in a very walkable city. 2 BR with one bath is a bit tight for a family of 4 with only 1 bathroom by Australian apartment standards. Furnishing felt abit well-used. Good view of Kangaroo Point from our 60th floor.
