Our first issue was finding the place as there is only a small crummy sign which is barely visible at night. The parking is terrible with only a few crammed spaces. Be prepared to park on the street or have someone reverse or bang their door into your vehicle. Ms personality at reception seemed very dis-interested. The room was depressing.... More

Stayed in a large room with double bed and three single beds, huge ensuite, tv, basic kitchenette and table / chairs - good for us (family of two adults and three children aged 5, 8, 9 for one night). This is the best value for 5 so close to city. We walked into the city centre and esplanade (only 1... More

Large size rooms with little furniture to fill the space. Old stained carpet, with tasteless decor, murky windows and shabby walls. Bathroom and toilet were ok however the hygiene seal was broken on arrival? Open Kitchen facilities incl mini fridge, sink & microwaves. Bed was comfortable but not the King size we were expecting. Close to Townsville mall with easy... More

Friendly, helpful reception staff at the very central Central City Motel. Our double room was a decent size with unremarkable fittings. In spite of the air conditioning, which was noisy and drafty, the room was stuffy and stale-smelling (but not technically dirty). We didn't get any sleep thanks to a loud, obnoxious, drunken couple next door. The rooms are in... More
