Hairs in both showers, grubby cutlery and crockery, and ash still in the ashtray on the deck really put us off although the apartment was quiet and otherwise comfortable. Pool was gorgeous and the...

Although this hotel is located in a convenient area for restaurants and bars there were some incidents that left us underwhelmed. Unfortunately we booked into this hotel when there was a music festival the same weekend. The hotel was filled with teenagers looking to party all weekend. We were on the bottom floor and had various rubbish (cigarette butts, bottles,... More

used to live in Townsville, so I know what other hotels are like and after staying here, whenever I go back to Townsville, I won't be staying anywhere else. I don't know what other reviewers are on about, the staff were seriously some of the best I've seen. The front desk girls were friendly, helpful and always said 'Hi' as... More

A great apartment-style hotel which is clean and comfortable. Whilst the reception staff do try their best to look after guests, it's just not a hotel-style of service that I'm used to....

As serviced apartments, the services provided do differ in some areas to traditional hotels. We believe we offer a wonderful product in our self contained serviced apartments, which allow guests to enjoy a home away from home whether they are here for work or a holiday. I am delighted to hear that you still enjoyed the complex even though it... More
