ibis Brisbane Airport Hotel
I was only there for 4 hrs but the shower was great the beds were nice and my view was phenomenal My only complaint, there's some missing signage trying to walk to it from the airport. But they must know this because there is a very handy YouTube video you can watch on how to get there
