Joseph the manager was welcoming and friendly. The room was very clean and tidy. The only negative would be the very very firm bed. The hotel attached was small and offered a reasonable range of dinner options. Staff was friendly.

We have stayed in quite a few different motels in Rockhampton and wondered why we have just found this one. The staff went out of their way to help us. The rooms were very spacious including a large bathroom and shower. Everything was very clean which was a nice surprise after all of the other motels. The staff were all very friendly including the cleaning staff which made our stay extra enjoyable. We would recommend this motel without hesitation to any Rockhampton visitors.
