We booked this hotel as we were at the Gold Coast for an event. I was extremely happy with our stay considering how cheap the hotel was compared to others. It's in a super convenient location with a bottle shop and many dining options in close proximity. The room was cosy and clean and offered a great view. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful and assisted us with a late check out which I am very appreciative of. You have the light rail literally at the door which makes using public transport concenient also. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great location, friendly staff and 2 pools to enjoy with onsite parking (at a cost of $25 per night). Rooms could do with an update, especially bathrooms which had mould and malfunctioning toilet flush mechanisms - compared to other summarily priced properties, the rooms feel very dated and run down (but clean).
