The room was clean and beds were comfortable …a complete set of cutlery would be good, there were no knives or teaspoons. Loved the pool and the shower was hot and full stream. Some WD40 spray needed on all sliding doors.

The property is very affordable for a weekend compared to other accommodation options in Surfers Paradise. It is very close to tram station, especially with the $0.50 public transport cost.

Staying on the Gold Coast
The property was as listed and we only stayed in it for one night which suited our needs. Parking was very easy and very secure. Price point was very reasonable for where it was located.

This is our second time staying here. It’s a good budget option for a family vacation.
It’s location is great if you are using public transport and walking distance to both Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise.
