The apartment was dated and lacking in the small things like a shelf in the shower to put things on, no spare toilet rolls or hand towels and not enough tea, coffee and milk supplied for 2 people for 4 days. The upside is that it is within walking distance to shops, beach and transport.

The room smelt terribly, carpets and curtains were stained and moldy, towels had hair on them and stains, toilet seat had huge cracks full of germs, customer service was shocking. Kids couldnt stop iching themselves all night so we had to leave ASAP in the morning. Definately not a 3 star property as advertised so many OTHER beautiful accommodatation places in broadbeach. Dont waste you money or holiday at this place.

I booked this property as I was attending a conference nearby. I was not told about having to check in before 4pm when I booked. After a long day I arrived at my hotel to find we were locked out and nowhere to stay. I rang the "out of hours" phone number at least 10 times and left messages and sent multiple emails, STILL have not heard back. AND they kept my money! AVOID THIS RIP OFF HOTEL

Don’t stay here. Pay extra and stay somewhere decent. The whole place needs a make over and don’t get me started on the condition of the mattress. Old, dirty with springs sticking out everywhere. Really dirty room, the bare minimum of cleaning done. We couldn’t find the tv remote and had the misfortune of pull out the bed to find it. Disgusting to say the least. The carpet on the stairs was filthy, hand rails sticky. Linen and towels the cheapest of quality. The management are making as much money as they can by spending the very least that they have to. 0 out of 10

I booked this unit for myself & my mother who is 66, for a week holiday for her birthday. After walking up 4 flights of stairs she had a fall on the balcony as she walked through the curtains and fell on to the chair and broke it, mind you the chair was old... thankfully she only had a few bruises. The unit was absaloutly disgusting, the washing machine wasn't cleaned at all, had fluff and dirt and mould throughout the unit. The air con didn't work upon arrival, it wasn't stated you had to walk up 4 flights of stairs either. The after hours lady was helpful yet took almost 2 weeks to get a outcome of a refund, which was only givin a credit to stay there again. I have attached photos for a review. I wouldn't recommend staying here!

IRRESPONSIBLE !!!

BED BUGS! After having spent a satisfactory first week despite a broken and unreplaced dryer, we decided to come back for a second week and were accommodated in another apartment. From the first day, we had reported a strong smell of damp and a clear lack of kitchen utensils. In addition, we had noticed some traces in the bed in the middle of the week, but it was only on Sunday lunchtime when we were remaking the bed that we understood that there were bedbugs in the mattress. We immediately contacted the emergency service who did not want to do anything or even offer alternative emergency accommodation despite our insistence (we only had one night left). It is absolutely scandalous! Of course, we immediately left the hotel and took a room only 5 minutes away at our expense... The next day, they did everything they could to apologize miserably by offering - A refund for the last night!!! WELL DONE, NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE.
