Hotel is old but rooms are clean and quiet with new split system aircons and the usual appliances. You will get a good night's sleep here if you don't want any noise disturbing you. Location very convenient being in the Mackay CBD. Staff allowed us to use the reception freezer to keep an ice pack cold for my daughter's medication. Thank you!
