to get started.

This facility was no frills in a great location. Staff was very, very friendly. The room and facilities were not what I would want on a vacation but it was fine for a quick one night stopover.

Mate

Great location. Enjoyed the patio views. So convenient and easy parking.

James

United States of America

So wonderful to enjoy coffee on the patio. Friendly staff in a great location right across from the esplanade an playground. Lots of great eats nearby. Free parking! No traffic. Clean and friendly. We stayed one night before a trip to the Great Barrier Reef and then three nights after. Spacious rooms but seriously the balcony made us feel comfortable. Don’t forget to take in the city pool, night mats and little Indonesian restaurant next door!

Large room with balcony and the locality is perfect. Very good breakfasts available at reasonable prices.

Margaret

We were on the 6th floor which gave us a great view over the city and the water. The location was great - being on the waterfront and close to the wharf, lagoon etc. Breakfast in the hotel was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Very spacious apartment with sea views. Comfortable bed, good shower. Able to prepare simple meals using the microwave. About a 10 minute walk to the main restaurants and markets. Cafe across the road on the waterfront. Staff very helpful and interested us and our holiday. Loved it.
