Auberges de jeunesse à Caloundra

Je devais m'enregistrer après les heures d'ouverture, ils m'ont envoyé tous les détails par e-mail et c'était un processus simple et facile.

We finally had the opportunity to meet a few wonderful hosts in person: Mariana, Ines and Jackson! They were most gracious, efficient, and definitely guest-focused! However (isn’t there always an “however”?) an issue occurred regarding a malfunction television set. This was reported on Sunday. 2 April; the engineer came to our room and confirmed the existence of the problem. He indicated he could not replace the television until Monday. We were not compensated for the missed night with a few round-about-reasons as to why not, e.g., 1) the rooms are individually owned and the owner had to be contacted to authorize the purchase of a new television which could not be done until Monday; 2) had we reported the issue earlier, a replacement television might have been available; 3) it was neither the fault nor the responsibility of the Rumba staff that the television failed; 4) the front desk did not have the authority to offer compensation. These “reasons” are interesting but did not address the root issue, namely we were denied benefit of the full amenities expected for the duration of our stay. Now, to a much larger issue and significantly more important: On Monday morning, 3 April, DESPITE OUR HAVING THE “DO NOT DISTURB” SIGN INDICATED ON OUR DOOR, THE ENGINEER DISREGARDED IT AND KNOCKED LOUDLY SEVERAL TIMES! When I opened the door he indicated he was there to install the new television. When I firmly pointed to the “do not disturb” sign that he did not respect, he repeated that he was there to install the new television. Needless to say, my wife and I were both very upset as we were still in our dressing gowns and were leisurely enjoying a cup of coffee on our balcony. This instance certainly ruined our stay!! The front desk staff did not even apologize for the intrusion. When checking out on Tuesday, 4 April, when I mentioned the violation of one of the most sacred policies of any hotelier (i.e., honour and respect the “Do Not Disturb” sign of the guest, then, and only then, were we told they were sorry but that the engineer was only doing his job☹ As a follow-up, I sent an email to the General Manager and he replied that the ”Do Not Disturb” sign was for housekeeping only -- so, beware that if you want an afternoon nap or merely want to be left alone, the ”Do Not Disturb” sign will NOT prevent an unwanted intrusion!

J'ai séjourné à l'hôtel Golden Beach avec mon père âgé pendant la visite de la région. La chambre était propre sans spot. Il était en haut et avait un lit double et un lit unique. Il y avait un réfrigérateur, un thé et un café et une télévision. La salle de bain était moderne et équipée de savon et de shampooing. La chambre était climatisée. Il y a une piscine et un parking sous-marin. Alors le motel a été entièrement réservé la nuit que nous avons séjourné, mais il était calme et nous avons dormi très bien. Il est à courte distance de Caloundra, où il y a beaucoup de restaurants. Il y a un Aldi et un pub à très courte distance, et un Woolworths et un magasin de bouteilles un peu plus loin (mais encore à pied). Il s'agit d'un motel de base, pas d'un resort de 5 étoiles, mais si vous vous attendez, nous avons trouvé un bon endroit pour rester.

Centrally located on the beach, in the town centre, view of the desert and mountains! How unique! Easily walk to restaurants in the evening and shopping during the day. Staff was very nice and accommodated our camper for parking as it was too high to go in the underground parking, Very comfortable room, king bed, separate bedroom and laundry facilities. Great stay,

We had a nice spacious 1 bedroom apartment at the back of the property overlooking the pool and tennis court. During our stay it was very windy and the balcony was protected from the wind. We spent a lot of time out on the balcony. However I think if we were at the front of the property which faces the ocean, I don’t think we would have spent much time on the balcony due to the wind. The room itself was nice and clean although we found that inside cupboards and wardrobes doesn’t seem to get enough attention to detail in cleaning than the rest of the apartment. The apartments are in a good location for restaurants and the beach. You have an assigned car park with the apartment underground. I would stay here again.

The room was badly presented upon my arrival. There was a used tissue and other rubbish under the bed, the ceiling fan and bathroom exhaust fans were very dusty, the tub chairs (advertised as a sofa) were worn out and uncomfortable with fabric covers over them which were wrinkled and poorly fitted. The cleaning under and around them also looked like it had not been carried out for quite some time, just like under the bed. The glass turntable of the microwave was not wiped clean before my arrival either. Next morning, after my pleasant walk around town and around the foreshore, I met up with the cleaning / management staff. The lady, was my contact person upon booking. She was apologetic when I mentioned my dissatisfaction about the cleaning, however the male cleaner / staff member who was helping her, was quite rude and confronting, and stated that they only clean under the beds once a month. I had paid for Two nights accommodation with the option for extending if the weather was bad (as I was riding my motor bike) After the above issues, I decided to move out early, forfeit my extra day, and found alternative accommodation. I would NOT recommend the City Centre Motel in Caloundra to anyone and suggest that the Male Cleaner (or whatever he is) requires a lot of training in Customer Relations and in how to Properly Clean a Motel Room.
