We had a lovely meal in the restaurant. Best salad I have ever had! Staff were friendly and helpful as there was a power outage when we arrived and they gave us good tips on getting food etc. until the power was reinstated (no fault of theirs by the way!)

Kay Australia

Great location and proximity to the Townsville Mater Hospital - unfortunately we were in lovely Townsville for medical reasons. Motel was close to Hotel and great breakfast place. Owners were very friendly and professional.

Grant Australia

Very clean room. Comfortable bed. Pleasant staff. Restaurant serves great food. Compliments to the chef.

Cindy Australia

Location was good and the sunny outlook from the first floor was very nice.

Gillian Australia

Lovely clean room, bed was comfortable. Got breakfast and dinner and it was all lovely

Susan Australia

The room was very clean with the most comfortable beds we have had in a Motel.

Richard Australia

We didn't have the possibility to taste the breakfast, but according to what we experienced it would probably have been good.

Ralf France

Didn’t have breakfast and location was really good

Rhonda Australia

The hot water was fabulous. it was well situated to get to the local hospitals. meals at the restaurant were good for a couple of nights.

Margaret Australia

I requested a ground floor unit because I have issues with my knees, however I didn't expect the wonderfully comfortable chair that greatly enhanced my relaxation. All necessary facilities including microwave and a comfy bed, plus very friendly staff. Definitely recommend.
