There was a syringe that was left in the room and some of my clients belongings were missing after the cleaners came in to clean the room. That also when the syringe was found at my clients head rest pillow on the bed. I would recommend drug testing all your staff and they appeared to be under the influence of some explicit drug.

Kerri

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Comfy beds, walking distance to restaurants and the city, spacious. My only feedback is to put blockout curtains on the bedroom windows, and a blind on the windows in the ensuite as the outside lights shine in all night, and the sun wakes you up around 4.30am in the mornings. Another suggestion is to put a door on the ensuite entry as it is currently all open, with no privacy, and the smells come into the bedroom.

Phil

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
We were very disappointed to be charged a cleaning fee when we left the room clean and tidy. No feedback just sent an email with a cleaning invoice and funds debited from our account. Particularly disappointing when the oven didn’t work for 4 days and we were very accommodating on our last day to have the stove replaced which was very inconvenient and the installation woke our sleeping child when we were assured it would be a quiet process. It all left a bitter taste in our mouths.

Bit catfished from photos

Apartment was great. But misleading in photos as pool is not the apartments but not the ridges. There is no reception so have to walk over to the Ridges. Many photos in ad is of The Ridges not the apartment. Also had a leak in our apartment for unknown source and made our room smell like stagnant water.

Would stay again. Great beds, loved the inside of the rooms, very clean and new looking. Pub down the road was a bit noisy but white noise on phone blocked it out. Fire alarm went off by accident one night but was dealt with.

What a lovely spot to stay in Townsville. This would be the nicest stay we have had there. Handy to everything in Palmer Street, and a short walk to the city. Very handy to the stadium as well.

The apartment is very clean and spacious. Secure access, need a swipe pass to access the building. Beds are comfortable, kitchen well equipped and the laundry in a separate room opposed to being in the bathroom. I will definitely book again.

I took my suitcase to the car at 9:40am and came back to the apartment. I couldn't use the card key. Already blocked!! The check-out time is 10:00am. It's too early to block the key. Besides that, close to restaurants,pubs,a convenient store and the stadium.
