Reception staff state the car park is full only to overhear car park offered to other guests after we've already checked in. Head reception staff member condescending to people of non- English speaking backgrounds. Room card continually times out and doesn't work for your room, so repeatedly had to go back to reception to reactivate the card. Two towels in room for four people and very limited tea/coffee/glasses etc in room- reception staff would not bring up extra towels for your room on request. Told at the restaurant we hadn't paid for breakfast when we did. No apologies from staff for multiple errors. At the end of the day, you get what you paid for- shame as it was previously a nice hotel to stay at.

Location was spot on just a short walk to tram. Easy walk to heart of Surfers Paradise. No balcony therefore no fresh air. Had to sleep with aircon on and there was no top sheet on the bed just a doona in a cover.
