Aircon in the apartments needs to be upgraded. It was an old box unit and it did not cool the room down at all. A fan to try and circulate the air would have been nice also. Other than that the room was decent size, clean and the hotel is very convenient to the tram stop only 150 metres.
Contactless check in and out was okay but there was a substance intoxicated guy (about 6ft tall) at past 12 midnight who was screaming on the top of his lungs in the vicinity whilst lying on the floor almost next to our room which were about to open. It was so unsafe that no staff can attend and police was notified multiple times but attended late. We had been awake all night after a late flight and 2hrs drive around Goldcoast including our kid. The call centre was useless for this kinds of emergency and they couldn’t help at all as they’d only say that they will notify the manager on site. We received an sms in the morning from the hotel saying they’re sorry for the inconvenience caused by their intoxicated guest who was locked out from his room the previous night. What would that do for our sleepless and worry overnight?
We were given 1 toilet paper for our 1 week stay and we had to ask for more but was only given 2 more! The room smells like smokes when we arrived and window blinds could not be reeled up and down, this was reported via sms but nothing was done so we had to keep manually opening it when we need to.
The doona was covered by flat sheets and not a doona cover. Small fridge had water leak on the floor when we arrived.
The only good thing for this Inn is the location as it is close to most of the tourist spots but safety is not close to good.
There was few cockroach in the room wich i don’t Like
The Security door is heavy to Handel
It’s hard to lock the door with the key.
The window blinder for the door is not clean and cover up partially. Left and right side the lights coming through.

Cheapest accommodation in the area close to public transport. Staff is friendly and always willing to try and resolve any issues.
Good budget motel accommodation. Great location and easy check-in process.
Fit out and facilities are aging and basic but good for a budget motel. Only negative is the mattresses. I have stayed in a number of rooms and all of the mattresses are worn out and need replacing.
Good location, easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Underground parking was good. Room was okay. The only issue is the tedious process of checking in. We were told by email/text that there was no manned reception. So, car park entry codes and room key lock boxes are issued by text. These are sent pretty late. We arrived after our check in time and although we had the lock box code, the key was not actually in the box - confusing! The signage in the car park was not the best and after managing to find our way out, we were able to locate reception which was manned! Reminded me of competing an 'Escape Room' challenge.
I travel to the GC dozens of times each year and this property must be one of the oldest, tired and sad property I’ve ever stayed in. From the dingy carpark to get your key to the bad fluorescent lighting in the hallways and rooms, sad bathrooms with broken shower screens to the horrible uncomfortable bed this place puts motels to shame. Do yourself a favour and book elsewhere!
Visited the Coast for a concert, and found the property to be very convenient for transport to the venue. Also everything else we needed was close by. The property was clean and tidy; a few little things needed repair, just wear and tear stuff, nothing unsafe or obvious. Would stay there again, value for money.

Room was disgusting, the carpet was wet, bed sheets and blankets were dirty. Air conditioner was broken. Ceiling fan would only work on low. Floor in the bathroom was sticky. Spoke to management, they didn’t care at all and laughed at as. Asked for a discount, have not received anything. This place is filthy and horrible. The staff member was no help what so ever. Highly do not recommend.
