The beds were very old and had worn out hard mattresses. After flushing the toilet would not refill straight away. The room needed a face lift and some maintenance but was clean. Staff were always pleasant and welcoming. The only real downside was the condition of the mattress otherwise a very enjoyable stay

Good location. Easy walk to the beach precinct. Resort is dated but clean and comfortable. $200 key deposit was taken off credit card but was told it would take 5-10 days for it to be returned. Very difficult to find a parking spot in the carpark.

Wouldn’t return

Our particular apartment was original/not renovated/very rough, felt unclean and had terribly stained carpet and a damaged kitchen counter top. No dish washing liquid, wipes/scrubbers or tea towels. Only booked for a place to sleep, thankfully did not spend any leisure time in apartment. From the balcony it appears there are nicer renovated places in the same complex.

Very good value - but

The location is a little further from Broadbeach (500 metres) than most rentals and many units face the carpark. Rates are very reasonable so pay a little extra to get a 1BR Riverview apartment which is spacious and has a nice outdoor area. We liked the security and underground parking BUT our bed mattress (apt 24 A) was terrible, but would stay there again if they replace it

The room was dated with stained carpet, no coffee provided and very limited bathroom products (soap & shampoo with no face cloths). The balcony whilst it had a nice view the glass is very dirty & the floor was littered with cigarette butts. Yes this is one of the cheaper places 5mins walk to the beach there still should be min standards.

Great place and great position, needs dusting and had to clean out the aircon filter (but most hotels are the same) exhaust fan not working in the shower toilet room (fairly important) torn dirty curtain. Lamp shade without bulb, fridge and about 6 inches of ice around it. Management only has to inspect the rooms every now and then, other than that it wasn’t a bad place.
