Disliked: Room comfort
First impressions if the motel are good and of the room are it looks okay. However, on using the shower the shower basin was slow to empty, on using the bed it was a shocker, sheer junk, needs replacing. The bedside lamps didn't work either. Breakfast was good and reflective of a good continental breakfast.

Quiet, modern and clean, nice little cafe opening out to a great swimming pool, short walk to Iluka Park and Town Beach and fairly close to the Mackay CBD .... Best of all the price for a overnight stay is good value and quite competitive against other Hotels that don't present as well as Oceanside Central Hotel

Location was a little far away for what we wanted. Excellent for a one night stay to get your head down and refresh before continuing your journey. Ideal for a cheap budget stay .
