I was in Townsville for a business trip. The room was very clean everything smelt fresh. The staff were so helpful and overall the view was amazing from the 13th floor. Had a very relaxing enjoyable stay over the long weekend. Definitely will stay again.
Yes ok.
Minor maintenance issue. return
piece of skirting board loose on right hand side towards sliding door.
Room was clean and tidy, pity about the trees blocking view of the Strand.
The room was clean but the bath shower had a crack in the base. A tripping hazard & dangerous. It really needs to be replaced..The staff were keen to look after your stay. The location is the best place to stay on the strand. Everything is in walking distance. The pool was great.
