This apartment block is in the premium location on the Gold Coast. Our car stayed in the free undercover carpark most of the time.
So in terms of a family holiday, this is the area you want to be.
What this means is that if you can get a good room in any motel in this area you are going to have a great holiday. Unfortunately this motel has a lot of dud rooms. Like the first night of our stay we realised the AC did not work, so the next day we were moved to a better room. So that's why I call it the hit and miss motel.
We had a 3 night stay at $149 per night - awesome value. But if I had to pay say $199 per night then I would have thought it would be too much.
They "self rate" themselves as 4 star but I really think it is a 3 to 3.5 star at best. They are not luxury apartments, its old and daggy.
And trust me - a dud room has broken AC, rusty furniture, chipboard drawers that are falling apart, all the slides in the aluminum doors are worn.
AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE 2ND FLOOR HALLWAY STILL STINKS!!!!!!
The manager and receptionist were very helpful and the heated pool was excellent - see, its not all bad!
