This is a great guest house, the owner is friendly available and also let's you enjoy a sheltered safe space to enjoy your stay in a suburb of Brisbane. The parking is variable as in front of the house and the street is either empty or very busy but the room we were in at the back was very quiet in regards traffic. The ferry is walkable and the bus stops outside the house for the city centre this was a great location for us and would stay there again.

A great place. Highly recommend it. Only one issue. They advertise laundry available which it is but they want you to do it before 4 pm. How is that possible. Im on vacation doing things not setting at the house during the day.

Just what we needed.
We really enjoyed our 3 night stay here. Brian was very helpful showing us a map of the best places to eat nearby and leaving us some Travel Go cards to get into the city on the boat. The room was lovely and the bed was very comfortable. Some good restaurants nearby and the ferry station was only about a 20/25 minute walk away. There are plenty of breakfast options in the shared kitchen (this is shared with other guests). Cereals, bread, juice, yoghurt and fruits were available each morning.

This is a very nicely presented property. For a one night stay it maybe fine for some but for longer stays, like ours, we found the property lacking. Big issue was there are no windows, just doors and without screens, flies or mosquitoes can come in. The bathroom has a very small window and no screen which doesn’t provide any ventilation to the master room. A ceiling fan would help. Since the room we had faces the street, one can’t leave the doors open for security reasons if nothing else and we tried it but the mosquitos were having a feast and to sleep you have to close them anyway. Can’t hear the TV with the doors open. The street noise is an issue as this is on a main drag. The cooler temperatures this time of year one needs to hang towels out to dry. No facility to do that. The line outside always had sheets or something on the line so we couldn’t air/dry our towel out there. The very small towel rack in the bathroom couldn’t fit one of the towels, let alone two. A drying rack for the guests would be good. The self serve/clean up continental breakfast was okay, but “the everyone can dip into the jams with butter on their knives” is not for me. Individual packaging would be more appropriate in these times. Our hosts were very nice and I’m sure they would have tried to make us more comfortable but these things require more time than we had there if they were considering making any improvements.

Brian is an incredible host with a friendly, clear and helpful manner. My stay in Brisbane was for family reasons and I appreciated the serenity and calm of the Balmoral Queenslander. I feel so fortunate to have had this sanctuary. Thank you Brian
