We just came back from a week's stay and it was just like home away from home...well, actually much better due to the ocean view!

We're a family of 5 (2A + 3C) and took a 2-bedroom apt with an extra bed. There were two toilets so that helped a lot in getting the kids ready.

For us, the washer & dryer were the most important facilities in the apartment as they saved us the hassle (and money) of finding a laundry shop or room (had we stayed in a hotel).

The kitchen was also equipped with a fridge, kettle, pots and dinnerware so it gave us the option to cook and eat in.

There's a convenience store within a 10-min walk and a bus stop near it that'll take you to Surfers Paradise and elsewhere.

We didn't need the fan or air-con (our apt had both) as the sea breeze was already cold enough; we used the portable heater instead to keep warm!

All in all, our view of Capricorn One it's super value for money, and we recommend it if you're looking for a home away from home.

Liked: Sapcious, equipped with important appliances
Disliked: Can't think of any, honestly

I am sorry to say that I was disappointed with the Hotel. The room that I stayed in didn\'t have air conditioning and when I questioned them about it, they said that the ad never said it did. So after a couple of days, I was given a fan. My husband fell ill and he caught a chill because we had to leave the windows open. One the sliding door, the mesh was cut therefore we couldn\'t leave that open and then it rained for a couple of days, so we had to stay in a stuffy hotel room.

The dryer was not working therefore the electrician had to come back on Sunday to fix it.

Before we left, the switch in the room between the hall way and dining area did not switch off, so my husband and I had to sleep with the light on all night. Then I was told that it was a two way switch. I never stayed long enough to find out.

We were glad to get back home as we did not enjoy the holiday one bit and the hotel room not being as we had thought, did not make it enjoyable at all.

I must admit that Brenda, the Manager was polite and she did give us a fan, even if it was a couple of days later.

I would recommend it to other people who are thinking of staying up on the Gold Coast as we had a fantastic time. We did have a bit of a time to find it, but we stayed there when they were getting ready for indy and we had to detour a few times.

Liked: Friendly happy management, and very helpful
Disliked: N/A
