Overall, the room provided what we needed. The floor was gritty and, i don't think it had been swept the day we arrived. There were 3 of us staying, only 2 coffee mugs. extra pillows would have been nice. A jug of milk would have been appreciated so we could have a much needed tea. The screen door of the shower was broken and missing a panel. We did eat in our room from there restaurant menu provided .The meals were lovely.

This dated motel is located on the northern entry to Rockhampton. Suitable for the budget conscious car traveller, staying 1 to 2 nights, wanting a clean, comfortable bed, clean and renovated hot shower plus a microwave and tea/coffee facilities. Meals are available on site or a shopping centre and tavern just 1 km down the road.

The staff were amazing with great onsite food options. Parking directly outside your room was also good. The room itself though was horrible - broken tiles in shower, stained table clothes, dripping tap, and a burn in the carpet. It’s just very, very old and needs major refurbishment

We stayed for 2 nights as we wanted to do a day trip around the area and this was the perfect base for us. The room was quite big as was the bathroom and all rooms in our wing had a door opening to quite a large open space with small individual tables and chair for each room to relax at. Didn’t try the in-house dining option. Would stay again.
