Fully self contained with enough room for me and a toddler. Everything we needed in the room. Comfortable set up with everything being accounted for. Great price for 6 nights last minute- very good value for money and in a good location that's quiet for toddler

Weren't able to use the streaming on the TV because they have 100MB limit which isn't sufficient- this made it quite difficult to set the toddler up in the living room without having to just hotspot to my ipad from my phone. No elevator which meant having 4 flights of stairs and needing to try and carry bag and toddler by myself downstairs. Small amount of parking.

The location was fantastic: a short walk over the bridge to Surfers Paradise. The room was good, but the sofa bed was slightly damaged. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The pool was awesome. Security cameras made the property feel safe and secure.

The Wifi connection was poor in our room location, so I used my hotspot most of the time. The outdoor chairs on our balcony weren't very comfortable.

Location is great, short walk over the bridge and you have access to lots of great resturants, pubs, clubs and public transport in means of bus and tram. Room was clean, and had everything you need for 1 week + stay. Overall, excellent stay.

Family friendly! Loved the couch that turned into a bed. It was perfect for my little family as my 11 month old is at the crawling stage so we just stayed in the lounge most of the time. Loved the pool and went for swims in the evenings. Would come back!

Wish there was a elevator but that's just me being lazy lol

Great pool, Lovely clean apartment, great location, great range of kitchen appliances/cooking equipment. Nice touches like washing powder supplied.

No Aircon in bedroom only main room and balcony doors could use some WD-40.

Great location and friendly staff. Good communication and good size room for what I paid.

Room really needs a refit, very dated and bathroom/laundry needs a lot of attention.

Jane the Manager was so lovely and accommodating. The location was fantastic, close enough to Surfers Paradise but away from the noise. The apartment had everything we needed. The apartment is older, but clean. Very happy with our stay, and would not hesitate to stay there again.

Quiet, and had all that we needed.

It was very quiet there. The room was very clean and had all we needed.

Having to climb to the top floor. Also the person/people who made a lot of noise outside in the hallway in the middle of the night.

Affordable, close to surfers paradise and quiet. Easy to check in and out

Not so much an issue for us but if you are physically unable to climb stairs this may not be somewhere you would want to stay as there are no lifts.
