Was a bit dirty, the restaurant was closed and has been for years apparently. The paint was coming off the wall, curtains didn’t close all the way and let light in through the night. Not a great experience overall

Overall very good choice for a few days in Townsville. Clean motel style room and bathroom. Good wifi TV etc. Quiet apart from the odd Stone Curlew; but possibly a little noisy if there is a Cowboys game on the weekend. Woolworth’s a short walk away. 10 minutes to restaurants in South Townsville. Staff friendly and could not have been more helpful.
