Barrow Island Marine Park

Excellent location in Scarborough. Spacious 2 bedroom studio room with all amenities required. Laundry room external to room on same level with free use of washing machine/dryer. Comfortable beds. Lovely balcony looking out to the ocean. Only downfall was minimal parking for guests and not many options along street.

Close to Optus Stadium and Cat buses and train station. The walk to the city is manageable. Some staff are better than others, 2 were excellent and 2 were just ok.

This hotel was okay to stay out for one night, but would not be staying any longer. I found check in quite rude with the receptionist I asked to check in a little bit early and she said the room is not ready then continue to watch people check in 10 minutes after I had asked the time I have lined up to check in my room was magically ready. Also they wanted a $250 bond deposite!! The room wasn't even worth that price, had to debate over this and she took $150 deposit in the end. The room itself was clean, bed was very comfortable, the shower leaked a little. Buffet breakfast was average for $25pp,a small selection of hot & cold breakfast options. Real Coffee was extra. The poor lady running it was alone and very busy for one person to do coffee and clean up.
