Look, I don't like leaving negative reviews. These folks are trying to run a business. And the room was clean and comfortable. However the pool was a murky green science experiment, not a welcome dip after a long day on the road. There were no instructions on how to get the two TV remotes to talk to one another. There was no hot water, which was a real pain. And there were no power points anywhere near the bedhead. This place was definitely not terrible, but at the price I wouldn't stay here again.

Due to 2025 floods in Townsville we had to adjourn our scheduled visit to hotel from Thursdayn13th Feb to Monday 17th February - it was no problem to owner/manager - more than happy to accommodate and a big relief to us as we travelled home to a flood bound area - thank you Bororen

We stayed here as a stop-over on a long driving trip and everything was fine- comfortable bed, nice hot shower, had a microwave to heat our dinner up. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. It was a little noisy being on the highway but we were too tired to care. The bed was lovely!
