Room was very very basic. Certainly not the 4 stars it’s rated. From my observation apartments are mainly used as FIFO accommodation rather than hotel stays. Although advertised with available parking there was no spaces available so we had to park the hire car on the street. Luckily there was street parking nearby. Shower had been cleaned but had a large amount of pubic hair in it which we washed out. Location was good. Staff were lovely. Room served its purpose.

Staff very friendly. Room well presented & great location. Some minor things could do with an update (shower head & soap holder). Was a bit disappointed that the air con was not on to keep room cool for our arrival, middle of summer & very hot! Also fridge turned down to zero so was very hot also & had to turn up to keep our water & milk cool. Thought these items could have been left on for our arrival as had prepaid in full.

Toilet wouldn't flush. Cleanliness of the bathroom was quite ordinary. Cut my toe on a shard of glass that had clearly been broken by the previous resident and not cleaned up appropriately by housekeeping. Overall, a good location, central to the Townsville CBD but will not stay at this property again.

Location and property was great. However the lady on reception was rude. What a shame, I had to ask three times where to park, she answered very rude and abrupt. After travelling all afternoon what a big let down. I asked because we needed the handicap park. She didn’t care at all. Then told me was had to pay the 100 and would get it back if I didn’t make a mess and live like a rockstar

I would not recommend this hotel based on my recent stay. For the price, it is very outdated, other hotels in the same location are much nicer and charge a similar rate. The biggest concern was the lack of security. The same key unlocks the gate, the main entrance, and every single hotel room. We tested (with another guest’s consent), and our keys could open each other’s rooms. On top of this, there is no internal lock or latch in the room, meaning you cannot secure the door from inside the room. This is extremely unsafe, especially when traveling with children. Cleanliness was also an issue. The room had clearly not been properly cleaned (I have several photos as evidence). The bathroom was in poor condition – when I turned the shower on, a leak in the silicone seal caused water to flow directly onto the bathroom floor. I booked a king-size bed, and during confirmation was asked if I preferred a king or two singles. I said either was fine, but was instead given a double bed, which was disappointing. Finally, both my child and I woke up covered in bites, which raises serious concerns about hygiene and pest control. Overall, this hotel was far below standard in terms of safety, cleanliness, and comfort. I would strongly advise booking elsewhere.
