• Ishiwata (7/5): -
• Axel (10/5): -
• Raymond (10/5): No problems at all - Location All good
• Saine (9/5): - The house is a beautiful old Queenslander with so much character. As a young woman travelling alone I found the accomodation very safe. The check in process was super easy and the price for the location was so good. Just a short 5-10 min walk to South Bank- would definitely stay again. I had a single room and it was a bit stuffy at night, but it's an old house, so what are you gonna do.
• BURCE (5/5): -
• Axelle (9/5): Vraiment bien - La maison est vraiment mignonne, une vieille maison avec beaucoup de charme, l'emplacement est super avec un bus a une minute qui dépose dans le centre ville Effectivement les murs sont très fins mais les gens étaient très respectueux et si on a pas le sommeil trop léger c'est très bien
• Jeffrey (7/5): Generally good - Good location for the travel to CBD and South Bank The washing machine located by the bedrooms, need to prevent using after 8pm
• morgann (8/5): -
• Tharanga (9/5): - The location was easy to reach. Most of the facilities were comfortable. The room was clean and comfortable to stay.
• Paul (7/5): - Generally clean space. Close to city. Affordable. Allows late night self check in. Glitch with the check in data not being sent to my email in time. Got the door code, but not the room number.
• Alixy (6/5): -
• Stacey (7/5): Surprisingly perfect - Location and ease of check in. No aircon in the room.
• qiuyou (10/5): -
• Vasanth (4/5): Lack of sound proof in accommodation. - It's near to city The problem in the Minto Accommodation is its lack of sound proof. If a car/motor cycle goes in the road you can easily disturbed by the sound. If room number 7 is allocated, then another big problem, it's adjacent to Bathroom/Toilet, if anyone uses Toilet/Bathroom in the sleeping hours then definitely the guest in the room number 7 will get disturbed by the sound.
• Sulochana (8/5): - It was comfortable stay , Home away from home Room service for cleanliness and change of towels at least after four days should have been done
• Yuyang (10/5): - Good and quite place with perfect location that made access to the city and the uni convenient. Clean rooms and bathrooms overall, friendly staff and neighbours.
• Nishit (9/5): -
• Tom (10/5): Peaceful, serene, comfortable - The house was so charming and peaceful, I came here because my hostel was too loud so this was heaven to me!
• Giada (9/5): - Stanze grandi con il frigo in camera
• Azza (5/5): Très moyen, chambre très sale, salle de bain non pratique - La maison était assez jolie. Geoff, un membre du personnel vivait dans la maison et était très disponible et gentil. Ma chambre était très sale. Il y avait des toiles d’araignée dans tous les coins. J'ai rapporté ceci à Clinton (le responsable du logement) photo à l'appui, Il m'a dit qu'on allait nettoyer cela, mais ceci n'a pas été fait correctement. J'ai continué à avoir des toiles d'araignée et plein de poussière dans la chambre.
• Fahima Shifana (7/5): -
• John (6/5): Good but how can you review a place with no human contact. This is just bizarre where people with money do nothing for t - Quite and good location No human contact. Old stuff from the owners house probably.
• Philipp (2/5): -
• lucie (8/5): - Très bonne situation. Transports en commun à proximité. Toutes les commodités pour un bon séjour.
• Natalie (9/5): Overall loved it - I loved this place all the historic photos really appealed to me. Nice quiet place to stay A little far from major attractions recommend hiring a scooter as the hills are steep for walking
• Richard (6/5): -
• Emily (8/5): -
• Andrew (10/5): -
• Tokushige (10/5): -
• Huang (4/5): - 周邊環境跟用餐區都舒服、性價比算高、提供廚房、餐具借用，還有三間浴室廁所供使用 （某間房間的個案） 燈光很暗（包含房間燈和床頭燈都是）、書桌過小，參觀了朋友的房間，一樣的價格明亮度、舒適度、書桌大小都好很多。 可能剛好挑到不常住的房間，床鋪似乎有點髒或有蟲，導致嚴重過敏起疹子，推薦用個蚊香或驅蟲藥。
• Titouan (9/5): -
• Elven (8/5): - The place is good and near the bus stop towards Central Brisbane. It was so silent and at night there were cooking and the smell comes inside my room.
• Christopher (10/5): Cozy and ideal for me - Friendly host The noisy renovation at 7am !
• Jon (5/5): - Location The single bed on wheels
• Iokopeta (8/5): - I like the cleanliness and quietness of the accommodation I would definitely recommend it to anybody. . Just the stairs as I had to come down a few stairs with my luggage to get to my room.
• Nadeem (9/5): - Location was the biggest bonus. Price, location, amenities, cleanliness. All up to standards with ease of check in. Wish the extra toilet papers were easily accessible.
• Ane (10/5): Perfect stay, 100% recommended - Great location, walkable everywhere! Good size and clean bedrooms, and clean common areas
• Joshua (9/5): Great stay. Highly recommended - Great support from staff, good rooms and well set up.
• Emma (9/5): -
• William (9/5): - Privacy, where the owner never bothered the tenants, all online bookings and instructions for checking and check out communicated clearly, awesome
• Andrew (9/5): -
• Melissa (6/5): Nice - close to bus was great. - Cafe nearby, bus at door . Close 15 walk to south bank , 20 to west end area. Nice size kitchen and clean. Bed , room close had to be very quiet .
• Hascoet (5/5): -
• Devis (10/5): - La proximité du centre, bien desservi par les bus. Le logement était propre. Nous sommes tombé sur la période avec des travaux dans l’établissement des 7h du matin :(
• Ben Or (6/5): -
• Morgane (6/5): - Logement propre, agréable et bien équipé. L’isolation est terrible ! Je n’ai jamais dormit dans un logement aussi mal isolé. Bien dormir y est assez difficile.
• Nicola (8/5): -
• Margret (8/5): Cute and friendly place with lovely common areas - The accommodation is really cute and welcoming, especially the common areas It was really cold in my room but I had a heater that gave off so much noise - did not sleep that well.
• V!tal! (9/5): -
• Stéphanie (5/5): -
• Louise (8/5): Was very clean and tidy. Good location. - Clean and close to bus/train for travel No kettle in room, no hooks to hang towel/jacket on.
• Nigel (8/5): -
• Simon (10/5): -
• Brett-au (6/5): Noisy and misleading 'doubles' but other rooms are better - There is a lot to like about this old Queenslander house. Positives first. It is quite elegant and has a well equipped kitchen. The onsite staff seem to be very responsive to whatsapp or messages. There seems to be good heating and aircon. Fridge in the room was handy, room was a good size, good quality bedding. Free tea, coffee, milo and some shared free food. Everyone was very respectful and tried to keep the noise to a minimum. My double room was actually nicer than the photos. The description does not match the room. There is no balcony or fireplace. The walls are paper thin. However the double rooms which I assume are 4 & 7 are directly attached to the bathrooms. It wasn't the toilet flush or the shower, but actually just the act of locking and unlocking the door several times a night. I think any other room (queen or single) would be far superior just because there is a hallway separating them from the most likely source of noise. Another annoyance was getting in the front door at night in the dark. It wouldn't cost that much to put a sensor light on the porch.
• Shubham Bhattacharjee (8/5): -
• Daniel (8/5): - Good location, good price, nice character house, very clean and well maintained Communication about how the check-in and check-out process was going to work could better have been communicated in one clear email once the booking was confirmed, rather than in dribs and drabs shortly before each stage of the process as was the case. When travelling, many people are not in a position to be constantly checking emails for updates. In any event, it helps to know these things in advance so you can plan ahead. Other than this, it was a most pleasant stay in a lovely house.
• Lily (10/5): -
• Thomás (9/5): Nice place, close to a lot of stuff - The place is really well located, near a train/bus station and one of the main streets in the South Bank. During my stay, the hotel was busy, and sometimes the trash can was loaded and lacked toilet paper
• Bavani (10/5): - Clean space, I felt safe as a solo traveller:)
• Mia (9/5): -
• Pablo (6/5): - Traditional Queenslander house with lots of character. Nice bathtub and lounge! Walls are paper-thin and you can hear every noise. The street noises can be loud and kept me awake T times. I’d suggest upgrading windows to provide sound-proof insulation
• Luise (9/5): great accommodation with good location, would stay again:)) - it was a really pretty house, the common areas, kitchen and bathroom were all nice, the bedroom was really good as well! i felt right at home:) the walls are quite thin which makes sense because it’s an old house but it was still a bit loud sometimes
• Hadjer (8/5): -
• Hon (5/5): -
• Laura (7/5): - La cocina se mantenía limpia y estaba bien equipada. Hay tres baños en la propiedad y también estaban muy limpios. La habitación podría estar más limpia. Las paredes son de papel y se escucha absolutamente todo, lo que dificulta el descanso y la intimidad
• Fiorela (10/5): -
• Benzy T (7/5): -
• Gwenaëlle (7/5): - Chambre spacieuse avec frigo individuel. La literie était bien. Les insectes présents (mais propres à l'Australie aussi).
• Chun Him (10/5): -
• Estelle (9/5): -
• Nathalie (6/5): Original - C’est une maison de type colonial avec une déco très originale. Salon bourgeois avec grande cheminée, télé et livres à disposition, immense cuisine et salles de bains avec baignoires à l’ancienne. Malheureusement, le deck est minimaliste, et le petit jardin n’est pas aménagé. Point noir : les cloisons hyper fines qui laissent passer tous les bruits.
• Sandya (7/5): Clean, close to city and go with my budget - Minto accomadation situated few km away from the city and can easily use public transport to go to the city. Coffee shops and 24 hour Grocery store nearby. Minto has a complete kitchen to prepare something during the stay. Its clean and nice. Shared bathroom is some times a problem. Wooden floor is noisy when you walk specially in the night.
• Nathalie (10/5): -
• Leigh (10/5): homely hotel - it was like a home with everything you need in a home

• Zhanna (10/5): -
• Manami (7/5): -
• 은영 (9/5): - 위치 정말 좋아요. 196번 버스를 타면 시티까지 20분도 안걸려요. 사이클론때 묵엇는데 정전, 단수 하나도 없었어요. 세탁기(5불) 있어서 세탁 가능합니다. 빨래 후 밖에 널어도 되는데 저랑 제 친구는 건조만 근처 코인세탁소에서 건조했어요(걸어서 5분거리)
• Nynke (8/5): -
• Cerys (9/5): Ideal, long term, great location - Communication between the owner and property manager were great, the facilities were perfect for a long time stay. Location couldn't get any better Cleaning sometimes lacked in bathrooms and kitchen but could also be because of other people not the owners or cleaners fault.
• Piercarlo (2/5): Anche meno - Pulizia assente, dovevamo pulirci da soli le cose in comune (cucina terribile, gocce di 'olio colavano dalla cappa, con il rischio che cadevano sul cibo), Aria condizionata controllata a distanza dal proprietario a cui dovevi scrivere ogni volta (per alzarla e abbassarla). Asciugamani mai cambiati e stanza mai pulita in due settimane (ma forse è meglio così considerando il resto!!!) Nel bagno capelli ovunque anche dopo le "pulizie" dell'housekeeper. Lavatrice a pagamento, seppur poco 5$, che non lava. Stato generale della casa non buono, considerando che era di legno e non tenuta benissimo! Proprietario per niente disponibile: abbiamo chiesto di poter parcheggiare la nostra auto per UNA notte all'interno poiché c'era posto libero e ci ha detto che dovevamo toglierla alle 8:00 prima del check out!!! Inoltre gli abbiamo chiesto la fattura del soggiorno che non ci ha mai inviato! Unica nota positiva è la Distanza dal centro: con un autobus si arriva facilmente in centro città.
• Sidik (9/5): - nice location close to southbank no
• Hao-Chun (9/5): It’s very comfortable to stay here, and both the kitchen and the lounge area are very convenient. - This place is very comfortable to stay in. You have to climb a slope to get there, so carrying luggage is a bit tiring.
• Hao-Chun (8/5): The room is slightly stuffy, but the kitchen and lounge area are very convenient. - This place is very comfortable to stay in. The room downstairs is a bit stuffy, and the fan is a bit weak.
• Daniel (8/5): - Minto Accommodation is located a little outside the South Bank. It's easy to get there by train and you only have to walk a few meters and you're there. There are plenty of shops, supermarkets, etc. on the South Bank. There are also a few smaller shops near the hotel if the walk is too far for you. Overall, I found it a little noisy, but that's due to the design. Minto Accommodation has a large kitchen and lounge. WiFi is available throughout the hotel and worked reliably the whole time. The bathrooms are shared, you should know that. You may or may not be lucky with the others, whether they know how to use a toilet brush. Otherwise, I'd say it's good value for money if you don't need the luxury of a 5-star hotel.
• Joel (7/5): Agréable séjour. - Séjour agréable avec les services adaptés au séjour et largement suffisant. Isolation sonore de la chambre 1 et 2..? Mais jouable avec les boucles kies..👍
• Chiara (8/5): -
• Salomé (8/5): - La qualité du matelas, la proximité au CBD de Brisbane, la tranquilité Les murs sont peu épais, tout s'entend
• Winston (7/5): -
• Elijah (8/5): -
• Charlotte (10/5): Super, hôte très réactif et Geoffrey sur place très sympa - Très agréable on se sentait comme chez nous TAS
• Brigitte (10/5): - Ein Juwel im Kolonialstil. Sehr liebevoll farbig gestaltete Räume, eine sehr große, gut sortierte Küche, ein gemütlicher Salon und eine wunderschöne Veranda sind große Pluspunkte ebenso wie die ausgezeichnete Lage an der Southbank mit dem Stadt Beach und der Uferpromenade. Direkt an der Straße ist die Bushaltestelle, ein kleiner Supermarkt, ein Bottleshop, eine Drogerie / Apotheke, ein Café, eine Bäckerei und zwei Lokale etc. Obwohl die Wände dünn sind, ist es sehr ruhig, da sich die Gäste an die "Sperrstunde" von 21.30 Uhr halten und Rücksicht aufeinander nehmen. Ich habe mich eine Woche lang sehr wohl gefühlt und würde in Brisbane nichts Anderes buchen. Die Dusche hatte nur einen sehr dünnen Strahl. Kein Personal da.
• Lars (8/5): - Lage Bisschen hellhörig aufgrund des Gebäudes
• Alexander (3/5): Would not do it again. Potentially hazarduous to ones health. - location and common area. Quiet after 930pm.. Nice view of the city. Mold in the room. There was also a 1-4 feet sheet of wood nailed to the outer wall on the inside of the room which looked suspicious in hind site . You usually only put that on the wall when you try to hide something. The rooms in the lower levels are make-shift and not part of the original design of the house. It is very humid there and damp no ventilation can help there. Wall also has water marks on the lower part so they know they have issues with humidity. Very moldy ideal to develop resperatory issues. I must caution against being lodged in the lower part of this house. The picture attached is of a pillow I never slept on, I put it aside first night I came. It is either dirty because it was never cleaned OR the environment is so humid that fungus grows like crazy(see the mottles in the pillow)... considering that an item of brass of mine also started corroding although I put it in my luggage which was never in the rain is also telling.
