Amora Hotel Brisbane
No privacy. Staff walked right into the room without knocking or announcing themselves about hour after checking in. Would not return here or recommend.

Great place in the heart of the city. The apartment was spotless and the views were amazing. Beds a little to soft for us but everything else exceptional
