Property was clean, as was the general area surrounding the cabin. However, the furniture was tired and the bed as hard as a rock as were the pillows. But overall the property, which was never expected to be 5 star, met my overall requirements of a clean and tidy place to overnight on a limited budget.

Thank you for your review. We've had no other complaints about the bed in that cabin and have had several return guests request that cabin specifically so we're guessing it's what type of bed you're accustomed to. We keep our prices down so furniture is maintained but not always updated. We're pleased you found our cabins clean as we pride ourselves on cleanliness at a good price.

Sorry to take so long to respond to your complaint. We do apologize for the treatment you received as it is our policy to order a taxi for our guests on request as we have a direct automated service. The staff member you dealt with has now moved on to other employment so we are confident this will not happen again.

wont come again

Pros: clean cabin ( strongly disinfected)
Cons: get a properly trained receptionist,who understands the customers viewpoint. work out a key business area like internet bookings, no glitches.
Location: Mackay has a good range of shopping, and restaurants. Eimio hotel overlooking the water should not be missed.
booking though Wotif, three days prior to stay. staff on arrival did not know of our booking, blamed wotif even though we had a sms confirmation. ḧas happened a few times this week¨ have you ever stood not knowing whether your going to have a place to stay with thoughts of how you will get a refund running through your head. no eye contact from staff member, mumbling to the desk, uncertainty about whats available. eventually put into a cabin right next to the entry road with traffic coming and going till late and very early in the morning. just been cleaned, very strong disinfectant smell, pile of laundry in entry. same standard of customer service on leaving.

We apologize for the unsatisfactory experience you had on your recent visit and can only conclude that the receptionist was flustered at not being able to find notification of your booking. The sms you received as confirmation came from Wotif, not the accommodation provider. The linen outside your cabin was awaiting pick up as the room had only just been cleaned, hence the fresh smell of cleaning agents. This can happen when we allow early check in. Again, we apologise if you were not happy with your stay here and thank you for your feed back. We usually have nothing but praise for our customer service but we always work on improving.

When you want the advantage of kitchen facilities

Pros: Clean and quiet...WITH kitchen facilities.
Cons: Only suggestion for improvement I would have would be to include 2 spare pillows...there was only 1 so I used a towel under my pillow for additional s
The motel experience isn't for me as I am on a special diet and require kitchen facilities....so this accommodation was perfect. Not too far from the CBD, clean, quiet and comfortable WITH a kitchen. And all for the price one would pay for a motel room containing only a bed. OK it isn't luxury however I wasn't looking for luxury...and this cabin provided very comfortable and convenient accommodation.

We did have an unusual cold snap at that time of year but we do provide extra blankets and there is a heater in each cabin. We are always happy to provide extra bedding if requested by anyone who feels uncomfortably cool.

Thank you for your review. We're sorry you didn't enjoy your stay with us. We are constantly upgrading our accommodation and have some new cabins. For your $90 you had a queen sized bed, ensuite and cooking facilities, dining suite, couch, tv, etc. We try to offer our guests accommodation which is affordable, clean and comfortable. Most of our cabins have balcony's so it's a shame you didn't let us know you'd like one as we could have moved you into another cabin.

Pros: Staff went out of their way with finding us help with the local services. The cabin we stayed in was spotless and very comfortable
Cons: You needed a car to get a round the area as public transport is poor. However taxi service is very good
Location: Close to airport
Facilities: Brand new; Value: Great deal; Service: Phenomenal; Cleanliness: Immaculate; Staff were very welcoming, nothing was too much trouble
