Breakfast was good. Room was comfy and up to date.

Jocelyn Australia

Recently renovated, new linens & towels, comfortable beds, new bathroom. Breakfast was perfect - continental in a little box with bread (toaster in room), spread, juice and cereal. Perfect for what we needed and I like to stay somewhere locally owned and operated.

Natalie Australia

The Motel is in a good location. central for what i needed. The breakfast was a welcome start to the morning.

Francis Australia

Continental Breakfast which was included in price was suitable and location close to Hospital for appointment. Will be a very nice improvement when all the upgrades are completed. The manager was a Gentleman and carried my Heavy Suitcase down the Stairs for me.

Gail Australia

The breakfast was very good and quite adequate. Nice to have it delivered to the room, which was spotlessly clean.

James Australia

Beds were really comfortable - made our 5 night stay super enjoyable. Nice and close to the basketball stadium and handy to everything. Continental breakfast was super convenient each morning. Staff were very friendly, but not imposing on personal space. Thanks for a great stay in Townsville!!
