Capricorn One

Fantastic stay with everything we needed plus much more. over the road from the beach, next to the light rail line and a short walk into Surfers Paradise makes the location ideal. George the caretaker was friendly and very helpful with everything. We stayed on the 17th floor and enjoyed seeing whales breaching during their migration north. 5 stars!

access to patrolled beach, trams, shopping, food etc all fantastic. not right in the heart of surfers but not to far away. fantastic uninterrupted views of the beach from the balcony - windows were extremely dirty this really detracted from the view. carpet in rooms was filthy also. If you had slightly wet feet it would leave muddy footprints on the tiles after walking on the carpet. disgusting Kitchen and bathroom and in general cleaning was good but no detail cleaning Some areas poorly maintained ie toilets and shower heads had leaks latch for dryer was broken and hard to manage and there no outside air dryer to hang towels. booked online and was told free wifi and late checkout. Noone answered phone or emails in days leading up to stay. No one attending counter or answering phone on arrival. Eventually a polite lady answered saying that she was moving out and gave me a key to the room. No info on property provided, no wifi password, no late checkout etc. No one answered the phone or was at the counter for the duration of the stay.

We stayed at room 102. It's an absolute run down apartment. Really falling apart. Rust and paint coming off in many places. The cleaning was appaling. One of the dirtiest places I've ever stayed. Everything was dusty, floors were very, very sticky (including bedrooms' carpet) when we checked in. The windows are so dirty you can't really enjoy the view. Additonal problems - Lights in one of the showers didn't work. Front of kitchen drawer falling apart when you tried to open. Oven only worked 1 night (out of 3 nights), and we had to throw frozen food out and buy takeaway, which made us spend more money unnecessarily. Air con is in the living room only. There are ceiling fans in the bedrooms, but the amount of dust around made us not want to turn them on.
