Townsville must have won the Grand Final on the day we stayed. There were revellers partying till midnight around the rooftop pool and bar three millimetres from our unit door, after which they all moved to the street screaming yelling and vomiting until 4am. Never again.

Built on to an old building, it has some defects, eg lift has potential to break down. Very noisy as nearly all apartments are around pool and bar.

The rooms are quite small, which is why they didn't get an excellent rating. A king sized bed doesn't leave much space when a couple with a suitcase each are occupying the room.

Unfortunately for us as over 80’s. Parking and access was a disaster. A very, very steep drive to the underground parking was beyond me - driving a borrowed car. Extremely steep stairs from the upstairs parking were beyond us - let alone carrying luggage down. The lovely general manager JR or RJ drove and parked the van and helped with luggage

Lovely hotel, close to maggie ferry. Rooms clean, great shower and a nice big bed, all we needed Pool was lovely to sit at for a while, we didnt swim in it. Only thing that was disappointing was that we were overcharged as handed in the vouchers for free drinks for guest with dinner but still were charged and given the wrong chicken schnitzel. All in all, if ever in Oz again, i would stay again and do recommend the Hotel

Poor customer service, poor wifi service
Very poor service all around: firstly, it was extremely stingy place to stay where wifi access is only through a voucher, secondly, the poor customer service only issued me with one days voucher even though I was staying for two days. And above all there aren't any phones in the room so to contact the front desk you use your mobile and if battery is dead then just suffer.....
