Have seen Brisbane once is...
Liked: It is a nice area and quit. In walking distance to the next water transport. The room was comfortable and there was also an outside area.
Disliked: The owners living above the rented room and it was noisy early in the mornings and late in the evenings. The bed was too soft.

Exceptional
Liked: The room was spacious with a beautiful ensuite bathroom, comfortable and private with an outdoor area for breakfast and relaxing. I had full use of a shared kitchenette and the breakfast foods provided were ample and delicious. Communication was excellent, local advice of things to do and places to go was much appreciated. The home is in a great location, close to shops, restaurants and the river where you can catch the ferry into the city. I highly recommend staying at Balmoral Queenslander.

Beautiful property and excellent location.
Liked: The private garden was lovely. The location was excellent only a 10 minute walk to the centre of Bulimba and the ferry terminal.
Disliked: The property was right under the Brisbane airport flight path so it was a little difficult to sleep.

Pleasant
Liked: A beautiful property! The beds and sheets were so comfortable, the place is very clean and the gardens beautiful. A very central location too, and I appreciated the host being accommodating with the early checkin as well as providing breakfast.
Disliked: However, it’s not mentioned in the description of the accommodation that the owners/host live in the property, and have their office on the bottom on floor. You can only find this information out if you read the questions asked by the previous guests, and even then it doesn’t mention the office. I was staying with three other young women, and we felt uncomfortable with how often the male host was in and out of the accommodation (the downstairs) area. We felt it quite unnecessary how frequently he came downstairs to do things like washing, particularly as we were getting ready for a wedding and were often walking around in pyjamas and trying to get changed. The host even came into our bedrooms - simply saying knock knock and entering without waiting isn’t good enough when several people are trying to get changed. Several people - the photographer, hair and makeup artists and mother of the bride - tried to make a politely point out the inappropriateness of this but the host did not leave us alone until one guest’s older father told him to explicitly. There is no ability to lock the downstairs area off from upstairs, and when the garage door is open (which is frequently was) access into the downstairs area is completely open as the garage door doesn’t lock. All this made us reluctant to return for the second night we had booked. Had we realised we would not have as much privacy as we would have liked, we would not have booked the property, despite how beautiful it is!
