We were met in office by friendly helpful Jane who gave us the keys and information needed. The sofa bed was comfortable to sleep on with the extra mattress, the bedroom and lounge room noise could not be heard between them. The walls were thick and the place only had a few storeys being older was not fitted with AI which was a healthy option as both my friend and I are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation and did not experience any uncomfortable symptoms from exposure there. The view overlooking the pool and the palms and quiet street was pleasant and we were the first street where you could walk or drive over the bridge to go to the gold coast highway. The airconditioner washing machine and all the electrical items worked well, the sheets and blankets were clean the clothes rack was handy on the balcony and great to have the extra outdoor chairs and table.
The carpet was old and flat which made it difficult to clean or it may have needed a shampoo. For the price it was ok to have a bathroom and kitchen where some floor tiles were chipped and the supplies of all that was needed to stay in the bathroom and kitchen was generous and adequate and even some laundry detergent to start off with was good.

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.

Good location to beach and walk into Surfers Paradise. Good self contained facilities - kitchen utensils, microwave, good size fridge, washing & dryer. Pool area and general surrounds felt clean and fresh.

Loved the apartment..very clean and comfortable, central to lots of things (beach, shops, etc). Secure Parking was fantastic.
The only complaint was lack of internet and phone reception. We had to go outside by the pool to make calls. This issue was due to the location of the unit, not the availability.

The interior was was actually more modern than I had anticipated. Really nice one bedroom had all you need for travel. Really enjoyed meeting the host, she’s a lovely person and will personally stay there again if I was to go back to the gc
Walls can be thin but not an issue tbh

The manager was amazing and suggested a place to park
No air con in the bedroom. Our 4WD didn’t fit in the car park. It’s the only place we have ever stayed at that it didn’t fit

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

Good location, quiet street, apartment was clean with all necessary appliances. A big bonus - free garage for a car
The building itself is not modern and requires some repairment
