Had a lovely stay at Brians. The location is very good in terms of eateries just a short walk away. South Yarra train station is extremely close by on foot, for those needing to get to Southern Cross station onward to the hotel. I was lovely being out of the CBD, I would recommend two places to phenomenal brunch - "2Birds1Stone" & "JourneyMan".
The place was not really as we expected, it could use a little refurbishing around the edges, but rightfully like other reviews, the bed was extremely comfy and the place quiet through the night and with singing birds in the morning. That in itself, and a very gracious host made it a good weekend.
