Our Home is approximately a 40 minute walk from the Transit Centre, however you have access to other services like Uber, a Taxi, or by Train ( 1 or 2 stops. Ie South Brisbane or Southbank Train Stations) and some walking will get you to us.
Q: Are there any cleaning costs?. Generally no, however like everything if something is broken or unusually soiled there maybe a small charge determined on a "case by case basis".
