This review is for Paramount Motel, 649 Main Street, Kangaroo Point, QLD. Good for short / medium / long term stays; Serviced Apartments. We stayed here 4 nights. There are 20+ units, first and second floors. Each unit has ONE assigned private parking place, outdoors in the lot. Our unit was quiet, comfortable, clean, and spacious. Big bathroom with shower, sink, toilet, window, and a clothes line. Full kitchen, including full size refrigerator, small electric stove, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, dishes and cutlery. Kitchen table and chairs. Bed big enough for two, plus a single bed which we didn't need or use, except as a useful low table. Sofa and coffee table. Desk and chair. Closet. Big TV we didn't use. AC, worked fine. We were lucky to have a unit with a view of the street through the small kitchen window, with screen and security grill, we could open for fresh air. Big window adjacent to front door, we kept the drapes closed. Good WiFi. Overall comfortable. Check in was a challenge. No staff at property. But good staff phone support. Doors have an electric combination lock. Initially our door would not open. Phone support staff told us the number they saw us entering, some of the digits were repeated. Consider the buttons were ”bouncing” and changed press technique to be brief stab the buttons instead of gentle press, then the lock worked okay. A note by the WiFi router warns to not unplug it, because that will break the electric door lock, access won't be possible. Hopefully there won't be a power outage. There was no room service, though longer stays might be able to request fresh linen. Instructions are to leave unit clean upon departure. Failure may result in confiscation of some / all of the $100 deposit. There was a nice swimming pool but no access. Because the gates were locked with a physical key. Assume a request would result in access method. Neighborhood was convenient. Small 24 hour IGA with Subway Sandwich about 200 metre walk. Bottlemart liquor store across the street, also about 200 metre walk. KFC and McDonalds about 350 metre walk. Various bars, cafes, restaurants, etc. Streets felt safe at night, various people walking about comfortably.
Very Good
