Sam's apartments are a great option if you want to be in the Hills area. It is an easy stroll to Castle Towers and other shops/cafes. Easy access from Old Northern Road but far enough down a quiet street not to be noisy. It was particularly easy to check in as he uses smart locks with keypads. That was very useful for us as we arrived quite late the first evening. Succulents is a smallish but very comfortable studio apartment. It has a decent kitchen area and the bathroom is enormous, with a large spa bath. Very good value.
