Windmill Motel and Events Centre
Family room needed a family size fridge!. And I believe the air conditioner in room 108 needs to be cleaned, as my whole family became sick while staying there.

Quest Mackay on Gordon
Room was spotless, staff were courteous and accommodating. The only issue or concern was the exit to the parking seemed to be left open which raised concerns for safety. Would definitely stay there again.
