Easy street parking now in the off season (early August). We had a family room-one closed bedroom with a queen bed, there is a double bed and a single bed in the spacious common area. The common room has 2 armchairs that could use new upholstery and a desk. Lots of light. Toilet has its own room-convenient for multiple people. The bathroom was newly renovated-new tiles, new shower and new vanity-all very nice. The shower head is only a rain shower so bring a shower cap if you don’t want to wet your hair. The shower water pressure was great. Walls a little thin and you can hear outside traffic because of single pane windows. But in the closed bedroom you can’t hear the other guests in the hotel. The teenagers sleeping in the common room hear nothing when asleep. The beds were comfortable enough and big bonus-enough pillows provided for 2 each-this is rare! The place was fine for sleeping and exploring Townsville.
Convenient location.
Very poor condition with the bedding. The pillows were disgusting looked and felt like 50 years old.
The quilt had holes in it and no cover just a sheet laid over it. When the neighbours showered the noise in our room was disgusting it was that loud and not from the people, it was the shower running noise. No PowerPoint for the bedside lamp on one side of the bed. When the staff cane in and changed the towels they didn't touch the bed😔
The $500 hold on the credit card is a bit over the top as well.

Thought the price was too high for the quality of room
Great location, very close to Cowboys Leagues Club and a short walk to Palmer St. No onsite parking and the allocated off-site parking was full so we had to park on the street, was a mission trying to find close parking especially on NRL game day. Room was clean, bathroom has some water damage wear and tear but it was the BEST shower pressure ever.
Also staff were very friendly, we checked in with Shay.

Great location, rooms were a bit worn and small but the bed is fantastic
Hallways below average.
Room felt old and unclean.
Furniture was well past it.
Water pressure poor.
Maintenance not kept up.
Aircon had no working remotes.
Expensive for such poor quality.
