8.8/10 Excellent! (3 reviews)
Pretty tired, run down and in need of an upgrade. Its an older apartment, which looks like someone has attempted to "tart up" with cheap furniture and a can of paint. The bathroom was pretty horrible.

9/10 Wonderful! (11 reviews)
Excellent location in Hastings street amidst the restaurants, coffee shops, mini supermarket, and retail. Access to the beach is easy through the alley opposite. Pool is large with loungers. Our suite was large with a sunny verandah. We have stayed here every year for 10 years and always been comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. The complex, pool and footpaths are very clean Privately owned Suites can be managed by a variety of companies but “Stay Noosa” was exceptionally professional and helpful.
