I had a really nice stay at this hotel with fantastic views of the beach and ocean. The location was perfect, and I enjoyed the clean and tidy apartment that came with cooking amenities. However, I found that the entry into the hotel was tricky and the surroundings could use some maintenance. The free parking was definitely a plus, but I hope they can make improvements in the future.

I had a lovely stay that was both relaxing and fun, perfectly situated in the heart of Surfers Paradise. The views from my room were simply stunning, and the facilities, including the pool and spa, were excellent. I had a small issue with the room cleanliness and some outdated elements, but overall, the value for money was impressive given the location and amenities. I would definitely return for another visit!

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The hotel is in a great location, offering beautiful views, but unfortunately, it felt quite outdated and some amenities were poorly maintained. While the staff was friendly, my experience with the front desk was less than ideal. Overall, I felt it was slightly overpriced for what I received.

My stay was really disappointing overall. The location had potential since it was close to the beach, but the rooms and service needed serious attention. The cleanliness was a major issue with old and dusty accommodations, and the staff seemed indifferent. The amenities were lacking, making for an overall unimpressive experience, especially given the price.

My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. The location in Surfers Paradise is excellent, close to the beach and local amenities, but the room I stayed in was unclean and lacked air conditioning. The service was lackluster, as I felt ignored during my check-in process. Overall, while the location could be a strong selling point, the state of the facilities really let down an otherwise promising stay.
