I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfy, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The only slight letdown was the limited dining options, but the facilities and location more than made up for it.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Townsville town centre, making it comfortable for travelers who want to be close to everything. The rooms are well-maintained, clean, and come with plenty of amenities. The young receptionist was very helpful and demonstrated great customer service with a smile; however, it seemed not all staff cared about clients' needs. The dining experience included risotto, which was a nice touch, and the facilities were sufficient. The pricing offered good value for money.
