The room was great, and the staff was wonderful. The internet was not working well at all. It was difficult to connect, and then when we did, it would constantly buffer or kick us off.

Have stayed here before and overall very good. However this time there were issues with communication. I had arrange the night before to allow me to go into an unused clean room early when I arrived so that I could change into work clothes and leave luggage. When I arrived none were available! However they allowed me to use the gym to change. On the second day I returned to the room at about 2.30pm and it hadn't been serviced.

Pool definitely was lacking in atmosphere, was just tucked in a corner. Quiet but no atmosphere. Facilities in the room great and staff very obliging. It was a great place to stay and the hotel below a bonus. Location great. Enjoyed our 7 night stay.

Enjoyed my stay

I was very impressed with the hotel and its location. I hadn't been to that area of Townsville before and found it the ideal location as was situated near the water and a short walk to the city. The hotel itself had many amenities that I hadn't expected. I was a bit disappointed that I was only there for one night,
