“The motel is dated, yes, and some previous experiences sound rough; yet, from what I gather, it's this very honesty that some find appealing, plus the approachable owner. For those seeking no-frills value and don't mind the need for some upgrades, this could be a fit, especially with its proximity to Brisbane's attractions and dining.”
