Really liked the reversible sign that could be stuck to the window so say whether the room was to be serviced or not. Also loved the sustainability of the multi use shampoo, conditioner and lotion bottles. Great work.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The rooms are fairly nice and comfortable and even have room makeup service if staying on. I wasn't particularly impressed with the amount of dirt on the entrance to the rooms. Its not hard to quickly run around with a blower to send the dirt back to the outside of the verandah. There ar bins supplied outside for emptl cans etc along with rubbish bins placed in several spots . The parking is undercover and I did see some tradie trucks parked underneath. Along with acres of room in front and becide for truck trailer parking. Great restaurant on site with bar. Overall I definitaly will saty again. Especcially as Mount Isa has very limited classy ecomodation and this place has it all. You need a vehicle if you want to head into town,

Arrogant English chap would not let us choose a room. Gave us one with difficult parking saying “take it or leave it”. Noisy place near lights on major highway. Avoid

Good staff and good food plus it has a bar. Staff are very helpful, nothing is too hard. A touch noisy being near the highway but not a problem for me. (One thing to note is a lot of places here in Isa have some vehicle noise as workers and travellers commence starting cars from early hours to early morning.)
