    Good location, best priced Motel in Mackay. Other guests were good (not partying like some motels I've stayed) along this stretch. Breakfast was nice.

    The room had everything we needed. Just had to cross the road for a very nice meal at a hotel. Situated on the main road so easy in and easy out of the city.
