Once again, the lift was out of service. I stay here regularly for work/dive trips. Therefore I have a big heavy bag. I do not appreciate having to drag it up and down three flights of steps. This is not the first time. I will not be staying here any further & certainly won't recommend.

Not that special

I love going to hotels, but I hate bathrooms that are not clean. There was dark long hair in the shower recess and my hair is blond, no fridge in the room, no area to hang clothes up at all. I expected more from a room when you pay $160 per night. Will not be back.

Fantastic stay!

Fantastic facilities and location. Surrounded by dining options and night life it's also east walking to tourist locations and local shopping. Ear plugs and a sleeping mask are a good idea for light sleepers. I had a great stay on a King bed in a private room for 2 nights.

V8 Supercars broom broom !!

Pros: We had a King room, very clean, modern, quiet considering the pool and bar were right outside the door.
Cons: Communal kitchen was fine BUT lots of people left a mess ! If you use CCTV in the kitchen we would suggest naming/shaming the culprits publicly
Location: we were only interested in the races
Townsville - what a laid-back place ! no-one's in a hurry EVER ! relaxing, fantastic
