this was a really good place to stay, the only thing i would give feedback on was the rooms smelt like cleaning products but it made it smell like an old persons smell, like an old musty motel. That was the difference from getting 5 stars, other than that it was great

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I stayed in a one bedroom studio for two weeks. The stove was dirty. The heater on the blink (it got fixed on my third last night - thanks very much) and I got barely any assistance from the office staff. I called well before my holiday seeking a quiet room and was assured this would happen. But on arrival, I was given a room facing the main road. It was noisy al day and all night. I liked the area but if I ever return, I will chose a nicer place.

The place is a 7. The room was not clean enough, the balcony was full of water even when was not raining the day before, no towel at arrival time, the kitchen and the utilities were not clean enough meaning the housekeeping was not done before our arriving. The best part is the balcony and the big shower.

The advertised photos were old and did not show the damage to the unit- sealant around the bath/shower, no power setting on range, burnt black frying pan, broken tap in laundry, microwave sitting on bench, Dryer tripping out due to dirty filter, Fridge ice box full of ice, floor tiles taped together in bathroom, laminate mixing from kitchen cupboard. The bed was very comfortable thankfully :-)

The unit we stayed in was amazing. The bed was so comfortable. Even tho it is on the Gold Coast Highway, it was quiet. Kitchen facilities were awesome. Plenty of room for the 2 of us and still had room when the kids and grandkids came to visit for the day. Nice and close to the tram station so you don’t need to get the car out all the time. Will definitely stay here again.
