We often stay here and it is clean and friendly and cheap. If I owned it I would charge double for the proximity to just about everything. I travel a lot and people complaining are after 5* for $70 or so. How sad. Go on, give it a try as you will be in the heart of Surfers Paradise and... More

We reach gold coast in the middle of the night. There wasn't any reception to attend to us instead they dropped us an email to go straight to the room and our keys are on the kitchen table. There wasn't any security in the motel. And our room is merely a key and a knob to lock the room. Balcony... More

I was so sceptical as to whether we should stay here after all of the negative reviews. Im used to staying in 4-5 star hotels but was on a budget so stayed here. It is definitely value for your money, of course its only 3 stars so theres nothing at all flash about it and the room was dated. But... More

- rude staff, the only nice person working there is a young man who helped with check in. "nina" the owner, is completely rude, who told me that I must not have a booking becuase it's not there, and believe me I would've walked out if I didn't. the lovely young man seemed to find my booking quite quickly. -...

We went to Gold Coast during Chinese New Year holiday and it was also summer holiday in Australia so most nice and inexpensive hotels are either fully booked or need 5, 7 days minimum stay. We stayed 2 days only. I found many nice budget rooms but those accommodations refused to accept family with small kid. Despite negative reviews, I... More

Ok,,the rates of this place (70-120 per night) is cheaper than most other places, but please do not even consider staying there. For us it started at check in. The lady in the reception was obviously high on something. We could not understand a word of what she was saying and she treated us like we should thank her for... More

Not quite sure about all the negative reviews. I booked the place at the last minute and despite reading the reviews here before my arrival, was pleasantly surprised. Sure, the room is stuck in 1975 but its got character, it's clean, has young clientele, is in a top location and has everything you need (balcony, tv, desk, shower, toilet, fridge,... More

Hubby and I went to a reunion and needed to stay one night only in Surfers Paradise. We had a very tight budget and WOTIF'S webpage showed us a decent nights room with alright photographs so we booked on WOTIF. The bloke at the desk was nice and thats the only good thing about the place, and that is honest.... More
