Loved the location, close to the southern entrance of Rockhampton. Rooms were super clean and well presented with modern features. Noise was kept to a minimum even with the close distance to the main road. Car parking is the biggest positive to the venue, with wide spaces, avoiding other patrons from scratching your car. Thank you.

A big, quiet, affordable room (#12) in the early 70s style. The attached restaurant was also excellent value. Difficult to access the free wifi after dinner.

Elements of the rooms have been refurbished - small bar fridge, microwave and hutch but the cleaning of the rooms needs more attention. Bathroom floors weren't clean and the ceiling had mould on a skylight panel despite white walls. Shower panels were grubby despite seeming new. Air-conditioner had clean filters but table and bench needed surface cleaning attention. Not a comfortable option for solo female.

It was very easy to find and the staff were very friendly. The iron wouldn’t work, single bed mattress was extremely hard and the fan made a loud noice when turned on was the only thing I was unsatisfactory with other then that I would definitely stay there again.

The room was spacious and clean with large undercover parking, but some of the fittings were a little dated. The staff were very friendly, and we enjoyed a good meal in the restaurant.
