Budget style accomodation. Room was very clean, however, internet pictures are very deceiving. There was no private bathroom in the room. Just a shower cubical in the open of the room with a shower like curtain. No door to close or anything. Very noisy unfortunately.

Very overpriced room, dated, only 1 lamp working, numerous power sockets not working, very noisy, cockroaches !! Light fitting in the shower ... that cannot be to code!! Relative paid much less for a much nicer room around the corner, that is where we will go if we have to come back. Only good thing was location, as we needed to be near the hospital.

We needed a place to stay for the night after a 6 or 7 hour bike ride from Brisbane. Two beds were all we required. The place was perfect. Got dinner from around the corner, sat under covered roof where the bikes parked, enjoying conversation and laughs and a few beers. Management was helpful with kettle replacement and advice on a a diner that moved. Thanks all
