Negative Reviews
negative:
Deposit Sting
Guests who were not expecting to have a holding deposit taken from their credit cards were less than happy about the hotel's policy; especially those who were travelling to see loved ones or who were on business, as the d-posit hold in some cases was more than the accommodation cost.
negative:
Average Access
Guest who did not choose the location of the hotel because of its proximity to the Show-grounds or hospital they were disappointed at how far from the inner city the hotel was, with many commenting that you would definitely need a car to cross the city to Southbank and beyond, which is a 20 minute drive in traffic.
negative:
Lack of Dining Close By
A common bug-bear for reviewers was that whilst the entertainment precinct in Fortitude Valley was close by, there was not really any restaurants and cafes in the immediate vicinity that could easily be reached on foot.
