Fantastic 10 day stay. Cannot fault anything. Very comfortable bed, blackout curtains and very clean. Lovely staff. Amazing location in a great area. Being just off the tram line at Arthur Street, The Kinson was ideal. The kitchenette was more than ample - thank goodness for the dishwasher. The restaurant below is Italian. The mushroom pizza with truffles and the gnocci were memorable. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay here. Very easy to get to the MCG #BRISBANE and Rod Laver Arena
