Great views from the apartment window. Very quiet. Great location and within walking distance to central surfers paradise. Reception staff were lovely. Only criticism is that the blinds aren’t the best at blocking out morning sun, especially if you’re a light sleeper and wake to light. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

This is our second stay at the Q1 & noted that the place seems run down since our last stay (around 7 years ago). The rooms are starting to look dated & are in need of some TLC. Also the showers could be better cleaned around the door frames, I could see dirt which was not pleasant. The halls ways felt too hot and the carpet needed more regular vacuuming.

Upon arrival q1 was amazing, a few hours had past and I went to go use the hot water for a shower and found my room had no hot water. I called reception and they managed to get maintenance up there to try and fix it. I was left for 45 minutes with the water running and no idea what was happening. I called reception again to be told I was getting a new room. All was good until I was given the key and had zero help from staff to move my bags. I was a solo traveller. They moved me to a room which in my opinion wasn’t as nice, however the bed was very comfortable. After complaining about the lack of help from staff I was given vouchers to use at the pool bar and q1 buffet breakfast which was much appreciated and a lovely gesture. Overall, I think what happened was a once off occurrence and I would stay at the q1 again. The beds are super comfortable, rooms are very clean. I Will say the pool staff I believe his name was Solomon was a bit of a party pooper!! Let everyone have fun, who cares if people are screaming at the pool

The Q1 accommodation was lovely. The air conditioner was a little frustrating and there were no instructions on how to operate the sound bar and TV. Other than that, the apartment was clean, tidy, and presented very well. Loved that the trams were nearby to go to restaurants and Pacific Fair shops.
