Pros:

Location

Cons:

Had booked the place only for 2 nights. After a tiring day on 1st evening you realise there's no hot water for a shower. Was too late to cancel and find an alternative accommodation.
The manager and staff came in to check but assured that by next day it'll be fixed. Next day around 2 pm we were notified that it's irreparable and will be refunded the 2nd night stay and a tiny portion of 1st day with conditions to check by 5pm. Had to cut short the outing and rush back to checkout find an alternative accommodation. Had booked the place to have a kitchen and laundry but didn't use them.
The basic necessity for any accommodation is to have running hot water. Had a terrible experience of this nature 1st time in Australia.

About what was expected for the price we paid.
Cons:

The dirty mattress that took up the whole wardrobe I was using. Also the engrained dirt in the wardrobe tracks. The filthy carpet leading upstairs to our room. The milk provided was over 2 months out of date.

An affordable and relaxing holiday
Pros:

The location is great for walking either to Surfers or Broadbeach. Tram is also just around the corner so if you don't want to drive public transport is close by. Having your own car park in a secure garage gave me peace of mind safety wise. The price per night was affordable and the apartment was very clean. Its all you need for a short stay.

Perfect with an elevator
Pros:

The pool lovely. The room lovely too. We had a very lovely stay.

Cons:

We didn't realise how many stairs There would be as my mum has a bad knee awaiting an operation. I don't blame the hotel I wish I had realised we would be on the top floor tho. Also the staff were a little difficult to get hold of.
