I like the idea that you can go to reception and choose what you want for breakfast the following day and take it back to your room. The room itself was clean and had a kettle, toaster, fridge, crockery and cutlery. It also had an ironing board, iron and hair dryer. If someone asked me what my stay was like, I will tell them that the staff and very friendly and the rooms were very clean. I travelled to Townsville by myself and met my daughter, son-in-law, grandson and son-in-law's mother there.

I really can't think of anything that I didn't like about my stay.

The room we were given was comfortable and clean and having the continental breakfast included in the cost was a bonus. Very few places that we looked at in Townsville, that were within our budget, included breakfast. We liked how we could pick up our own breakfast the afternoon before and then make it when we were ready the next morning. I have orange juice every morning for breakfast so I was disappointed that that wasn’t available. Although, I will just bring my own next time. Having a variety of cereals and spreads e.g jam available was excellent. The area around the pool was also clean and tidy and a nice place to sit.

The only thing that I could fault was that at one point, when my husband and I were sitting outside at the table having afternoon tea, there were people around us smoking. Should definitely be a non-smoking area as we are non-smokers and were not happy breathing in secondary cigarette smoke.

Our ground floor room was recently renovated, fresh, modern and clean, plenty of room. The continental breakfast which was included in the price of the room was great, Monte Carlo provides real milk in addition to long life, a good selection of spreads and yoghurt, varying types of bread, cereal, tea, coffee and sugar. The service was friendly and professional. Value for money can’t be beaten. We have stayed in both run down, ill equipped, and higher end hotels with less amenities all at a higher price tag. Monte Carlo comes out on top in all categories. The higher end places might have nicer soft furnishings but that’s about it. We come to Townsville quite regularly and think Monte Carlo will be our new home away from home.

Nothing we didn’t like, only small suggestion would be bedside tables, however this was easily navigated with the large bench across from the end of the bed for phone charging etc. If I had to be nit picky, updated blankets for the beds but if you’re only looking to keep warm it’s a non issue.

Lovely old building with tons of character on the outside inside wonderful modern rooms/units. Access cabin was large and well laid out.

Cleanliness was a little on the low side. Tile Floors had dirty smudges, toilet was not fully cleaned under seat, draws full of crumbs from toaster, conditioner was empty and fridge and freezer were both uncleaned from previous guests. Car parking for access rooms not at all easy to park or load/unload disabled guests.

Everything I needed was provided, the staff were lovely and the room was cozy and clean, the bed was warm and comfortable and the location was convenient with access to nearby shops as well as the event I was attending. I felt safe and secure as a solo female traveller and the parking spaces were wide though that I didn’t have to fret about damaging mine or someone else’s car squeezing into a space. Will be staying again if I’m lucky enough to get a booking!

Nothing of note.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and a very good size. Our room was equipped with facilities for disabled or elderly this was handy to know for future reference. Larger fridge was good with a small kitchenette, was handy to keep the cost of the stay down food wise. Complimentary continental breakfast. Easy access to and from property.

Hard to find fault with anything. Maybe a few cosmetic blemishes. Which I am sure most places have.

The motel itself was lovely. The rooms were clean and contained all that was needed (Well, except shower caps, lol) I loved the idea of the seating around the pool (in and out of the fence) and the lovely manicured gardens.

Really picky little things that don’t matter in the grand scheme of things but- The car park is not very suitable for big cars when it’s completely booked out. You have to walk to the office in the morning to collect packets of cereal and milk to take back to the room which was an inconvenience so we didn’t due to restricted time and having to be at the hospital early. The shower head is attached to the ceiling so if you have nightmare hair, bring a shower cap with you. (You can thank me later) The hot water also seems to be set so if you do like a good HOT shower, you will be a lil disappointed.

Size of room and it’s comfortable. Conveniently located with ample parking. Good value for money.

Stayed in room 8. Cleanliness can be improved. Maybe 7/10. There was cockroach on my bed and some red patches on the carpet. Kids weren’t sure whether it’s dried blood or paint. Floor was quiet when I wiped with a clean cloth so although it looked clean the floor was actually quite dirty. Also there was a lizard inside the shower that refused to leave! 😅

Shower was hot, bed comfortable. Room had small table and two chairs plus two seat lounge. Request for downstairs room honoured with direct parking outside door. Close to service station with a NightOwl for snacks etc

Breakfast was not available until reception opened at 8am - too late for us Traffic noise in front rooms made it hard to nap in afternoon before night out, didn’t notice it during the night

Spacious, clean and well priced. Nice pool. Very comfortable beds. Breakfast was free but you had to get it when reception opened at 8am. Lovely, amenable staff.

A little remote from CBD. The room was supposed to be for 3 however there was only enough bowls for one and the cutlery was short also. We didn’t know our room was up stairs, nor did others who I saw struggling with luggage. People would also sit out at the tables near the pool late at night and talk quite loudly. From our room we could hear all this.
