We were staying for a local football competition so it was ideally located for our stay, spacious, had everything we needed for a long stay. Only criticism was the shower doors leaked water on the floor a lot.

Great location with beautiful views of the river. Walking distance to a varied selection of restaurants, cafes and takeaway as well as the supermarket, plus The Lagoon for a swim, the library and art gallery and plenty of parkland. Apartment was clean, spacious and kitchen functional.

Great location with an amazing view of Ross River. Relaxing and enjoyable stay
Rebecca, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was very clean and the room was a good size. We were right on the end next to the road so it was very noisy, hence 4 stars.

Very helpful staff. Lovely river walk and near municipal facilities. Nice cafe too.
Dianne, 3-night trip

The outlook over the river was very pleasant and relaxing. The apartment was well equipped and comfortable. Having secure parking was a big plus.

Easy access to the lagoons for the kids. Roomy apartment and clean and neat and tidy. Great value for money, really cheap price for the quality of the property.

Michelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a great place to stay with our family. The two bedroom, two bathroom, full kitchen unit was very quiet and comfortable. The beds were not very comfortable - I believe there were broken springs in the mattress, however this is my only complaint. We will definitely stay here again.
Niki, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The unit was smelly and very dusty. Oven was dirty and we where not able to use it. Kettle and toaster discusting. Will definitely not stay there again and don't recommend it.
Pat, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely outlook over the Ross River. Near main road with some traffic noise. Security is good. Rooms only serviced once per week so you need to ask at reception for additional servicing at no additional cost.

8/10 Very good

These units were great to walk around riverway and shopping centre.

8/10 Very good

Efficient apartment close to everything we were interested in. Nice to have a washer & dryer but instructions on how to work them would have been appreciated. Had to learn by trial and error. Appreciated the on-site parking but next time we will rent a smaller vehicle. Our large car was a tight fit. Also appreciated the extensive walking paths near the facility. We took long walks every day.
Robbie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a wonderful stay. 4 nights. Close to everything we wanted. Some reviews mentioned road noises. I only heard a emergency vehicle go pass on 2 nights, but in Kitchen. Couldn't hear any noise in main bedroom.

Privacy May Be an Issue for You
I value my privacy which is the main reason I choose to stay in apartments rather than in hotels or with family and friends. I was not impressed by having a group of strangers uninvited walk into my apartment at 8:45 am, without knocking, and without any valid cause - I was just getting out of the shower when I heard them in the corridor and had a few seconds to wrap a towel around my waist. On another point of security, there should be a safe provided in the rooms for laptops, cameras and passports etc.
Gary, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not too bad, nice location, interior just starting to wear and tear. Only gripe is the lack of daily servicing considering the price.
MARK, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous location in Townsville.
Great location. We asked to move to another apartment as ours was very noisy. We were close to the hwy. The staff were fabulous and moved us to a much quieter apartment facing the river. We also asked for a late check-out which was accepted. The location is about a 5 minute walk to the Riverway lagoon. A must if you’re staying in the area. It’s free with great facilities.The library is next door with a good cafe.
View from our balcony.
