Overall very good choice for a few days in Townsville. Clean motel style room and bathroom. Good wifi TV etc. Quiet apart from the odd Stone Curlew; but possibly a little noisy if there is a Cowboys game on the weekend. Woolworth’s a short walk away. 10 minutes to restaurants in South Townsville. Staff friendly and could not have been more helpful.

Average

The bathroom shower drain was blocked. Upon complaining they said we can't do anything about it as there is no body available. Upon requesting to change the room they mentioned they are fully booked out. And that's when they arranged someone to look at the drain. They were quick enough to fix it after this. however the overall condition of the room was pretty average. The bed wasn't comfortable and made noises, the bathroom door gave difficulty in closing. It felt lil unpleasant to stay in the room for 1 night.
