Mackay Resort Motel ★★★★

📍 154 Nebo Rd, West Mackay

"Was alright for the discounted price I got it for but the room was a bit dated. I booked the executive spa room but was a bit disappointed with the spa itself - very old and lacked pump power. Also the bath faucet was positioned in a place that prevented a second person from sitting comfortably in the spa. The bed was comfortable and the room was reasonably quiet. The pool looked nice although I didn't use it. As was the case with the restaurant. Overall a tidy upmarket motel."

Sun Plaza Motel - Mackay

"Payment was a bit difficult since they wouldn't automatically deduct the money from the card, and also the front desk closes at 18:30 already. Since we checked in after that, I had to try to figure out a way to communicate with the front desk and figure out their email address. In the end everything worked but it was a very complicated process. The room was very frugal a bit run down and the blanket was too thin. If you're looking for someone cheap it's fine, but better not take a pretty girl there."

Mid City Motor Inn ★★★

"The surrounding environment is good and the hotel looks good, but the room is quite different from the appearance. It is a half-renovated youth hostel family room with many old traces. The good thing is that the bed is clean and comfortable, and the hygiene other than the bed is very average. The so-called breakfast is some bagged snacks that can be taken back to the room. We didn't take it when we checked in because there was no reminder. At night, I remembered to ask the front desk to lock the door after get off work, and I saw the "breakfast" on the table inside through the glass. There are plenty of parking spaces, but the parking spaces in the yard are not paved roads."
