Guest review

5.0

It was central to most things in Harvey Bay. The apartment was very clean and staff helpful

Bed was quite uncomfortable. Infact could feel inner springs when lying down on bed. The lounge chairs were not built for comfort either. Plus the security gate was not locked at any one time.
