Allure Hotel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent spacious and well-appointed 2-bedroom apartment. Clean and tidy. Quiet as in no noise from neighbouring apartments including above & below. Bit of street noise on Friday and Saturday nights as you are in the Palmer Street precinct but not too bad. Plenty of choice of eateries nearby in easy walking distance. Friendly, helpful staff. More than happy to stay again."
