While the hotel has a stunning view and a great location in the heart of Surfers Paradise, my experience was marred by inadequate customer service and unsettling room conditions. The rooms boasted beautiful views, but they were not well maintained, which was disappointing given the price. Furthermore, I found housekeeping service to be lacking, detracting from an otherwise enjoyable stay.

I found the breakfast at the hotel significantly overpriced, and it didn't live up to my expectations considering the cost. There was little variety for the price.

Facilities like the SkyPoint restaurant on the 77th floor were impressive, but overall, I expected a higher standard given the hotel's claims of being a luxury resort.
