Didn't like anything about the property everything was old worn out or broken. Extractor fan in bathroom broken, wardrobe door had to pull out around fridge to get into wardrobe. Sliding door onto patio rollers worn out hard to open, broken furniture on patio, very much overpriced for condition of property.

Upon arrival I was ‘investigated’ by the owner at reception, treated like a criminal, and rudely spoken to, while also being told that talking to much in reply to her questions made me look suspicious. ‘We get a lot of un-savouries here’ were her exact words. The place was clean but a dump, 100% would have been more comfortable sleeping on the floor, and there was no proper lock on the door main door, only a chain, the old asylum feeding holes next to the un-lockable door meant the little security you had was still at risk. The place may have been less concentration camp-esq if the owner had any true sense of respect and customer service. The next morning the people seemed seemed to have made a complete 180 in terms of attitude and outlook. But I will for the rest of my life avoid this place like the plague, and use it as a reminder to alwasy take the time to research before choosing accomodation! Marco Polo just across the way, was exactly the opposite and I would stay there every time I am in Mackay.

All liquid dispensers in the shower were empty. Neither bedside lights were plugged in because the power outlet was adjacent to ones head in the bed. Anything placed on bedside table would stick to it. There was a band aid stuck to the bed quilt.

Lodge needs urgent upgrade

Frankly this was the worst motel we have stayed in for over 20 years. The only thong to it's favour was the friendliness of receptionist, Chris. No room service, bathroom door could not be closed due to rusted door frame. No proper maintenance has been carried out for many years. While present air conditioner worked well but the old rattler unit was still in place and the front panel fell off when I touched it.. Soap dispensers were useless and the only functional unit had not been refilled. Shower recesses are tiny and there was nowhere to put my soap. Remains of old attachments have not been repaired or removed. Water damage in the bathroom not repaired and paint blistering off. Chairs had bent legs which is a safety hazard - could be eaily fixed by bending the legs back to normal.. I must admit that the old refrigerator worked well but was a bit rusty. Another small plus was that the sheets were clean although I could not sleep with the over-firm pillow. My wife's vie of the two units we used was that it was "pretty tacky".
