The beds and pillows comfortable. Self check in on Sunday. The upstairs apartment 1 double bed and 1 single bed was spacious, 'looked clean', however dated and had a distinct old smell. The flannelette cover on the end of the bed created lots of loose black fluff and got onto our clothes. Removed from bed. Visable black fluff on the top bedsheet and carpet Better off without it. There was a blob of wet tissue in shower drain. Please explain? At first glaced i thought it was some white mould growing and took a photo. I opened the fridge and not sure when it was last cleaned. Jug of cold water i would not contemplate to drink. Nowadays most places offer complimentary sealed bottled water. Shouldn't the microwave be conveniently placed on the benchtop for guest use? Found the microwave underneath the cupboard which meant you will need to carry it out yourself and place on benchtop to use and when finish unplug and replace..theres a notice to say to replace things where you found them or incur extra charge. I took a look at the balcony and saw the floor had several large spots of beverage stains covered in dust. It does not appear this area gets cleaned. No, i would not return to stay nor recommend due to our 1 night experience

The property is great for what we need it for. 2nd time staying here however, the screen door on our room didn't close properly, the feature blankets at the end of the beds left black fluff all over our clothes and throughout the room. As we were in Mackay for work, when we arrived back at the accommodation late at night, there was never any car parks on site & we had to park down the road.

Staff was friendly and got our key from the lock box since we showed up after hours. On-site free parking, room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The heater didn't work but there is a portable heater in the closet to use. Priced reasonable. Plenty to a shop and eat around the hotel. Nice pool. We would stay here again

We unfortunately arrived when the reception was closed, however the instructions left for check in were clear. Sadly, the restaurant was closed and I couldn’t find any information about the surrounding area, in the room, luckily we did manage to find somewhere to eat. A comfortable room, however, I think some of the crockery needs replacing as there were cracks in some of the dishes and some did need washing prior to use, that would not be the fault of the motel, just the previous guests I suppose.
