Unpleasant Odors: The accommodation had a persistent and unpleasant smell, making our stay uncomfortable and displeasing. Leaking air conditioner. Constant wet & leaky Kitchen floor : (as per Photos attached), leading to slippery surfaces. Unfortunately, our children slipped twice due to this issue, raising serious concerns about safety. Dirty Kitchen Utensils & Plates: The kitchenware provided was in a deplorable condition (photos attached of a broken pair of tongues). Plates and utensils were visibly dirty, posing a health risk for anyone using them. Missing Toilet Paper Holder in the ensuite bathroom (see photos) : inconveniencing us and creating an unsanitary environment. Peeling Wallpaper: The walls of our accommodation were adorned with peeling wallpaper, which not only looked unappealing but also raised questions about the overall maintenance of the property. Non-functional TV Remotes: The TV remotes provided did not work, depriving us of the basic amenities that were expected during our stay. No vacuum Cleaner was supplied for us to clean (that's a basic inclusion) No mop supplied to dry up the

Convenient location, although we had the bad luck of a meriton being constructed in front of us, so it ruined our beach view and loud noise began at 7am every day. The inside pool and sauna were nice. We had a few request to accommodate our baby's needs and they didn't provide, just wanted to charge overpriced for renting it. We rent a cot and it was in bad conditions. TV in the bedroom didn't have a cable to connect it, just the power cable. We have a crawling baby and we kept finding dirt under the furniture, lots, including a Pepsi can!! Never offered to clean it and worst yet, there are no cleaning supplies at the apartment, except for a broom, but nothing to pick up??? WiFi didn't work properly also. When we email management for help with this issues, they ignore us, and almost at the end of our stay, replied to some emails (ie. WiFi issue) saying we could contact the number in the modem, instead of calling them or coming to check the issue. Really disappointed and never staying here again!!!

The property was very unclean. We booked for a 5 night stay. On the very first night we noticed the floors were all very sticky, the blankets were all so dusty and dirty that we had to wash it before use. The apartment itself is in a very old condition with no centralised AC and the amenities provided were absolute minimal - like no soap, no salt, sugar , oil , not even floor mats etc. The worst part was the last day before vacating where they put a notice saying we have to clean everything and put it in the cupboard before leaving saying that’s their policy. Two questions : 1. If you care so much about the policy, then doesn’t your policy tell that you need to give the property in a good condition before letting it out. 2. Basic cleaning is understandable. But If we have to make sure everything is so organised before we leave, what is the point of paying the money for ? Expedia should have advised about the condition of the house and the amenities provided will only be minimal. I would rate 0 for this property . The only good thing is the location which is so close to the prime centre of surfers paradise

The property itself has great amenities 2 x pools and a sauna and terrific parking and is right opposite the beach for those of us who love the surf. The view from the apartment we stayed in was amazing in 3 directions but is was very dated and unfortunately apart from the bathrooms not very clean which gave off an unpleasant smell. Having said that it was a good size, it could do with some new pillows but the bed was comfortable enough and there was plenty of room with a comfortable sofa to watch the waves roll in. I would stay again even despite the issue around the cleanliness of the Kitchen and floors.

The apartment was super dirty especially the bathroom in which looked liked it wasn’t even cleaned. The kitchen was greasy and food crumbs were left in the cupboards. The dryer had clothes left behind from previous holiday stayers. It was horrible. It just shows that cleanliness is not a priority. The apartment is far from Cavill so if you have small kids you will struggle to walk to and from the main area of surfers.

This is the most unprofessional hotel I've stayed at. The bed was broken, the room was dirty and there was even a blood splatter on the bed frame. They fixed the bed but it took 24 hours to do so. There was nothing offered as compensation. The took zero accountability for their actions and they couldn't care less that we had a poor experience as a results of their services. We did try to follow it up with wotif as they suggested, but the hotel's landline number is conveniently disconnected :) for anyone reading just maybe don't stay here!

Booking via wotif was easy as. However the man at the front desk is not helpful at all. I’d booked via wotif again for next year and requested the same room again but he told me he can’t put me in that room because wotif books level by level. So I’d have to cancel my booking with wotif and book direct with the hotel but still no guarantee of the floor I’m requesting. Even though it’s available. Spa worked two days but not the third. Hotel itself is old but good value for money. Sure beats camping.

I loved the view of the ocean from my 9th floor apartment also closeness of the Light Rail. I think the apartment could do with a little upgrading eg paint walls ect. The beds were very large and comfortable, also the apartment was very spacious. On the whole I would go back and stay there again.

Average unit.
The unit was small and only on 2nd floor with minimal sea views. We booked 9 months earlier for 12 nights and requested a front unit on a high floor.Manager told us nothing he could do to help, because we booked thru a third party[hotels.com] and not direct.Ensuite bathroom tiny.

I liked that it’s very clean and at a quiet location. What I didn’t like is and felt a bit disappointed about is that the property didn’t measure to the advertised photos such as a full view of the ocean. Other than that it’s quite good!
