Gladstone Capricorn Apartments

What guests think

Reviews of Gladstone Capricorn Apartments describe a budget-friendly, walkable stay with comfortable beds and some spacious units, but also highlight aging rooms, inconsistent cleanliness from spotless to dirty, and service that ranges from helpful reception to unreachable check‑in support.

Parking is easy or safe for several guests, but parts of the property look run‑down, with torn shade sails, unkempt exterior areas, and some in‑room spa fixtures reported as faulty or unsafe. Common drawbacks include problematic showers or bath‑over‑shower setups and occasional early‑morning noise from other guests. On the plus side, many appreciate the central location and quiet nights for some rooms. Expect straightforward, no‑frills lodging where the experience depends on the specific room and staff availability.

This was very affordable and in a great location near the town centre. It is a little run down but would have been fancy when first built. Some suggestions: Better Security on front door and windows (one window was good though). Replace the torn shade sail material for those guests with cars. That would also improve the aesthetics. Clean enough. Very Good for the low price.

Absolute rubbish, no pillows on the bed and no pillow cases in the room so I couldn’t even make them up myself. Messaged the property and no reply, piss on the toilet and covered wet in cleaning fluid, disgusting! So much dirt and dust and cobwebs, I had to clean the bed side tables just so I could put my items on them.

This apartment had obviously not been cleaned for a long time before our arrival. Apart from a clean sheet set, there were bug droppings in the utensils drawer, a thick layer of dust on every surface, disgusting. It was late when we arrived so we cleaned the bathroom sink ourselves. Washed anything we used, no reception, just a phone number. The $190 rate was ridiculous. I will be requesting a refund.

The access was quick after the phone call but the state of the room was diabolical. Black mould in the bathroom, possible blood stain on the carpet and if you check out the doona stowed in the drawer it is covered in possible blood or lipstick stains. We booked for three and got the extra bed shoved in the corner but no extra bath linen. I was not happy but the morning kookaburra call was a nice touch.

First of, the service was amazing - really nice receptionist. We had one of the apartments for the night and it was as you would expect, a little simple in what it contained and quite a thin front door but apart from that it was a really nice experience. Can recommend stopping by when travelling through Gladstone.

I thought it was excellent value for money, the person on reception when I checked in was so nice, professional and welcoming. The room appeared very clean but there was someone else's used soap still in the shower, the hairdryer was very broken, when I switched it on it made a scary bright glow then completely died. Those things I just thought oh well, it's not a big deal, I'm still happy with the place but I was so annoyed when the cleaners knocked at 9.50am, 3 of them sat by the door while I got my stuff out. I still had 10 minutes! It really ruined my stay and made me so stressed and anxious being forced out, I really liked it there but I'll NEVER go back because I thought I had the room until 10 and being forced out before then was a stressful experience.

Either wotif or the hotel have taken payment for this booking however no party will claim and take ownership of the fraudulent transaction not will they return the money. The lack of response for both the partys has been non existent in returning of the funds that saw me having no accommodation until I paid the amount for another room.
