Pros:

The location

Cons:

Facilities are very basic eg no fan above bed which means have to have air con on do you wake up all stuffy. No wake up calls. Staff weren't thorough in cleaning egg found hairs when I checked in, button in plastic container on floor (not mine)

Good jumping off spot for Magnetic Island day trip
Pros:

Good location by car, secure parking. Room clean and well set out, albeit very much on functional side. Known for very friendly and helpful staff. Walkable to Ferry to Magnetic Island or short drive. Some very acceptable dinner options in the area.

Cons:

Pool exists, but a “why bother”.
