Great location, close to beach

Great location, but could do with a spruce up.... My husband and I stayed at Carlton Apartments for 1 week, was a bit disappointing that we were given only one towel each and one only hand towel. Had to wash our own, then had no towel to use in the meantime..No room service at all, otherwise had a pleasant stay.

The washing machine broke down the first time I tried to use it on the 3rd night. Not fix. We booked a 2-bedroom apartment, and there is only one air conditioner unit in the dinning area. It apparently has motion sensor that shuts down after 30 minutes when no movement. Needless to say, you have to get up in the middle of a foxtel movie to keep the air cond unit running! And forget about a good night sleep, with the air cond auto shut down on it own, the ceiling fan in both bedrooms are too noisy to run at night, I have been getting up at least 3 times a night to turn on the air cond. The stand up fan the reception lend us on the second last night of our stay was too little relief too late. Beware of the housekeeping too, they came once during our 9-night stay. Well, what more can I say.

Getaway

Apartment 22 - The apartment was clean and tidy but a little dated. Small leak in the main bathroom. great spot for a short break wouldnt stay with small children as hi-rise. 3 adults stayed - no sofa bed so must select 2 bedroom apartment or an additional charge.

Fantastic stay!

My stay at Carlton Apartments was excellent. The apartments are in a fantastic position near Cavill mall and with the light rail station at the end of the road. The apartment was comfortable and extremely clean. We had ocean views from the balcony. A very pleasant stay.

Horrible experience

Floor was wet when arrived, was slimey and sandy. Bottle lids and cigarettes left on the verandah, someone else's hair on the pillows, sand in the bed, looked like it had just been remade not changed, glass over the floor and in the carpet, plates and cutlery not even cleaned properly. The lady at reception was very abrupt and needs to gain some more friendly communication skills.
