My stay at this hotel did not meet my expectations. I was really looking forward to a relaxing weekend, but the noise from kids using the pool early in the morning made it hard to enjoy. Although the price of $80 a night is appealing, the issues with my room, like the air conditioning and a worn-out mattress, made it difficult to feel comfortable. On a positive note, the wood-fired pizza I had was quite good, and the location had its perks.

I had a mixed experience here. While the hotel's location near the ferry terminal was ideal and the staff was accommodating, the room conditions and noise disturbances left much to be desired. The amenities, while promising, didn't quite live up to expectations, especially concerning poolside tranquility and dining efficiency.

I had a fantastic experience staying at this hostel. The location was perfect for exploring both Magnetic Island and the Townsville city center, and the atmosphere was really relaxing. While the rooms were basic, they were clean and served their purpose well. On the downside, my dining experience wasn't great; it took forever for my food to arrive and the service was a bit disorganized. Still, I can't wait to return because this place felt like a little oasis during my travels.

I recently stayed at this hotel with my family, and we had a solid experience overall. The location is great, right in the heart of the nightlife, which is exciting but also noisy at times. The staff were friendly, and the pool area was nice and clean. However, there were some issues with room cleanliness and amenities that could use improvement to enhance the overall stay.

The hotel is centrally located, very close to bars and nightlife, but this also made for a noisy stay at night.

The food, especially the roof dining options and the $1 oysters on Fridays, was a highlight of the stay. Breakfast was decent but could be quicker.

The pool area was a refreshing spot, but improvements like shade and a handrail would enhance safety and comfort.

I recently stayed at Rambutan and was pleasantly surprised by the fantastic rooftop restaurant with its great views and diverse menu, though the rooms could use some improvement in space and layout. The hotel has a great atmosphere and is located within walking distance of many attractions, making it convenient for exploring. The staff were welcoming and attentive, yet a few issues, like noise and room layout, could be addressed for a better overall experience.

Rooms
7.0
The rooms were quite small and somewhat cramped, especially with the large beds, which made it hard to move around. I initially had a room with no view but was quickly moved to a better one overlooking the pool, which was much nicer.

The staff were extremely nice and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay, from check-in to housekeeping.
Location

The hotel is very central to everything in Townsville, making it easy to explore local attractions and restaurants, although the immediate area can feel a bit quiet during the day.

The hotel has a lovely pool area, though more shade could enhance the experience, especially during hot days.
