It is closer to everything, just a walking distance to the Strand, city, public transport, Woolies, Banks, the church. The room was clean except water pressure wasn't good well it wasn't for the room we stayed in. But other than that we really enjoyed it and the staff are friendly.👍💜

If you want the fanciest place in Townsville this is not your motel. If you want somewhere welcoming, comfortable and clean you can't go past The Robert Towns. We were travelling with our large dog. She was as welcome as we were. The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. This made the occasion We attended stress free. Thank you to all who made us feel so at home.

Pleasant surprise”

I arrived late and it was a last minute booking. Peter looked after me and had the key in the after hours safe. The room seemed better than I'd booked but I wasn't sure. Found out it was an upgrade to the middle priced room. Very comfy and had a few cooking items which is wonderful for a budget traveler like me. Sandwich maker, electric frypan and even a 2 plate cooker. Pots pans etc. I was worried about being on the street but no bad noise at all and I loved the view of the church. I would stay here again again without a doubt.
