- Michael (8/5): - Good position. Clean and quiet
- Andrew (8/5): - Very quiet and clean, well presented room. Continental breakfast was a fizzer, I was expecting breakfast in a dining room. Not delivered the night before. Needs security screens if the windows are open. Nice quiet room but overpriced their style of Continental breakfast, no major issues.
- Dianne (10/5): - It was clean
- Greville (4/5): Avoid - Location, near to where I needed to be Dirty cups (coffee tide marks), plates (greasy with food stains) upon arrival... Tired old rooms, flaking paint Laundry facilities are out of order and have been for some time by the looks of the taped on paper signs...
- Mohe (10/5): -
- Renata (8/5): A good value for money place to stay. - Clean and helpful staff. Bed was comfortable. We had everything we needed. The pillows were not very comfortable.
- Theo (10/5): -
- Hesta (4/5): - The position was good for where we needed to be for 2 days We had a room that fronted onto the road so it was very noisy, both from traffic and people. Doors slide/chain lock had not been put on the correct way so it was easy for someone to break in.
- Laura (8/5): Great location! Lovely staff - Clean and tidy! Handy location Everything was great, except wasn’t told had to order free breakfast by 5:30pm
- Paul (8/5): - Really good location, friendly staff. The breakfast is simple but a nice touch. Spacious room.. Nil
- Jan (8/5): - Good room and bathroom, fridge and tea/coffee facilities, excellent for one night stopover A bit noisy since we were at the front right next to a very busy street.
- Lynette (10/5): Excellent and will return. - As advised and sufficient for our needs but was very pleased that it had a small kitchenette and a separate sink to having to use the bathroom basin to wash any dishes. Loved the Lego material pattern included in some soft furnishings. Brightened up the place. Nothing really.
- Rebecca (6/5): Good - Very clean and friendly staff There was an alterations with a girl from off the street during our stay which was very frightening.
- Verneice (7/5): Excellent - I didn't have breakfast at BP Nothing
- Judith (8/5): - The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The location was good, pretty central to alot of things.
- Brydie (9/5): Good service, clean, comfortable, spacious room. - Good service, clean, comfortable, spacious room. Breakfast was very simple but ok. Free wi-fi was good. The staff obviously went into our fridge. They left free breakfast everyday in our room on the bench but took the bread I was saving out of our fridge.
- Zach (10/5): -
- Paul (6/5): - Ok price. Advertised that breakfast was included. On arrival it would have been nice if we were told that u had to preorder breakfast. We didn't know so we missed out on the free breakfast. No really impressed.

- marshall (10/5): - everything
- brian (8/5): Nice but needs work - Clean comfortable and handy My room was right above the smoking area so I couldn’t leave the window open and there were several blow flys in the room when I arrived.

- David (7/5): -
- CADaniel (10/5): - Everything was fantastic! No complaints.
- David (10/5): - It was nice and clean, just what we needed for the convenience of the girls' netball. Staff was helpful. If needed, need a change of towels. The juat asked, and they brought them to the room. Accommodating for a later check out to the best of their ability. The bin in our room was empty every day. I wouldn't say it was something I didn't, but it says breakfast included, and that was great for myself, but the friend I stayed with was gluten-free, and that was not accommodated for. So maybe a gluten-free breakfast option could be available even if it's just 1 or 2 choice.
- charmaine (8/5): Would stay again . Good value for money - Staff were very helpful with my late checkin . Rooms were clean and comfortable. I had an upstairs room which was nice and quiet . Bed and pillows were great . Was very close to sporting ground I needed to go to everyday . Not great water pressure in the shower . There is a Caltex across the road but not a lot of food options close by

- Cliona (8/5): - Banjo Paterson was exactly what we expected and needed for the night before getting on the ferry to Magnetic Island the following morning. No frills but clean and secure. The gentleman who met me at check-in was very polite.
- Kirsty (7/5): The owners were fantastic - The service was amazing. The place was comfortable. Some patrons where disrespectful when arriving late They started cleaning pretty early in the morning and we were sleeping
- Logan (1/5): Not pleasant bed sheets were dirty not worth paying $160 for dirty sheets. Would like a refund please. - Nothing The bed was made and looked clean at first glance. It wasn't until midnight, after we had already gotten into bed, that we discovered the fitted sheet was covered in stains and outdoor debris. My boyfriend and I felt incredibly itchy the entire time we were in the hotel. Our eyes were left red and my eye was also swollen. We had no other clean sheets in the room. The room cost $160 for the night, and seeing those sheets made us feel that nothing in the room was truly clean. I tried to contact the hotel owner, Greg, but he insisted he had made the bed himself and saw nothing wrong. He said he would check the room and get back to me. I offered to send him photo proof, and when I asked for his number to send the pictures and my complaint, he stopped responding. Despite sending him texts, I have not heard back from him since that initial phone call. I am requesting a refund for having to sleep in dirty sheets. I was too distressed to bring it up at checkout and simply wanted to leave the property right away.
- Bianca (8/5): -
- Amanda (10/5): - Comfortable bed, free continental breakfast was great, room was nice and appeared to be recently renovated. Good location, and friendly, helpful staff. Would recommend and would stay again 😊
- Peter (6/5): -
- PHILIP (9/5): -
- Kym (8/5): -

- Karen (5/5): -
- Charles (10/5): -
- mark (9/5): Polite positive employee-thanks mate. -
- Michael and Kathleen (10/5): To relax and visiting places in townnsville - Very clean staff very helpful
- Leeroy (6/5): Safe, clean, comfy. Wasn’t the best choice for just one night but recommended if you’re out of optns - Like the cleanliness, car park, everything okay except, Didn’t get to stay for breakfast. wifi connectivity was not good in the allocated area
- Dolly (10/5): -
- Sarah (6/5): -
- Norina (10/5): -
- Sharyn Read (9/5): - It was a comfortable room and the staff were very helpful Not much it was exceptional
- Nicolas (10/5): Excellent. Aside from the homeless people. - Everything: location, rooms, check in and out, value, comfort, the staff, carpark, EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. Except... The homeless people who are given rooms and end up causing trouble, disturbing other occupants, making noise all night, and that wander around the carpark and the hallway walking up and down past your door at 4am angrily talking to themselves? That's one thing, that could be so easily fixed. They detract from the family-friendly vibe, make it difficult to relax, and shouldn't be allowed to abuse the rooms and the hotel. In my eyes they're bad for business, and will sour a good reputation.
- Rachel (8/5): -
- Lisa (10/5): wonderful staff, tidy, clean, easy to find. - I booked late and staff were happy to accommodate my stay. Room was nice and clean. I have no negative comments
