    lovely pool area
    unclean bathroom
    uncomfortable beds

    Had a good time overall, but the bathroom could've been cleaner, and the beds weren’t the comfiest. But, the pool area was choice for unwinding after a long day!

    poor management
    loud guests

    what a disappointment! the bathroom window lacked curtains, and I was treated to the delightful chorus of unruly guests at the pool who seemed untouchable. I woudl ve been gracious if my request for a room upgrade had been acknowledged, but alas, who cares about special treatment anymore? I almost thought this place woud be decent, but just couldn’t.

    awesome location
    unreliable wifi
    unsafe bathroom window

    Awesome location with walkable access to shops and eateries.

    The WiFi was incredibly unreliable during my stay, making it difficult to keep in touch. The bathroom window felt unsafe, offering no real sense of security. There were only a few TV channels to choose from, leaving us with limited entertainment options, and the parking situation felt constricted.

    soft mattress

    Townsville vibes with a twist 🌴

    Rooms were lekker and clean, aircon worked like a charm. Chommie at reception was super friendly and made the check-in so easy. Pool area at night was a whole vibe. felt like I could just chill there forever!

    The mattress was a bit too soft for my liking, had to adjust myself a few times during the night.

    comfy beds
    outdoor pool
    bbq area
    minor noise

    Our stay was really nice, the beds were super comfy, and having plenty of space for parking the trailer was a huge bonus. The outdoor pool and BBQ area were perfect for unwinding after a long day, and we enjoyed them a lot. A minor hiccup was a bit of noise from the nearby road, but it didn’t spoil our time. 😊

    The Robert provides excellent conference facilities, making it ideal for business meetings for groups of up to 20. the fully licensed restaurant and lounge bar offer convenient dining options, enhancing the overall experience. The comfortable rooms facilitated a productive stay, ensuring I was well-rested for my business engagements.

    Our stay felt special, thanks to the friendly staff who made check-in a breeze! The spacious pet-friendly twin room was comfortable, and we enjoyed quality time at the lovely outdoor BBQ area. Don’t miss the convenient dining options they offer! Just be ready for some noise at night.

    Super comfy stay!

    Had a nice night here with my fam! Staff was super chill and helped us check in early 😄. The beds were really comfy and the parking was super easy since we were towing a trailer. Wish the Wi-Fi was more stable, though. We also loved hanging out at the picnic area outside!

    welcoming staff

    Couples should be cautious

    The guy at the reception was super friendly, made me feel welcome right when I arrived after a long day! ! The private balcony in the corner room was a nice touch for a romantic evening, overlooking a beautiful old church.

    It certainly wasn’t budget-friendly, but the atmosphere had its charm.

    spacious room
    useful kitchenette
    neglected pool

    The upper-floor room offered ample space and a small kitchenette area, which came in handy during my short stay. The WiFi worked well, making it easy to stay connected.

    The exposed air-conditioning pipe was a concern, especially when it rained, creating a distracting noise. The pool area showed signs of neglect, with cracks and chips making it less inviting for a swim. the overall condition of the room felt dated, limiting comfort during the stay.

    guest noise

    The Robert boasts a captivating pool area with shaded seating perfect for family gatherings and barbecues. We appreciated the pet-friendly rooms, which comfortably fit our furry friend alongside the spacious kitchen area that made our stay convenient. The location was easily accessible, just a short walk to the local cafes and retail stores.

    Noise from other guests.
