The staff at the casino were so accomodating for my elderly mother and sister. The simple considerations like finding a room with a walk in shower. My mother found the rooms luxurious and the food in the cafe delicious, the staff friendly and the atmosphere refreshing. Thank you

Oaks Townsville Hotel
The room was great, and the staff was wonderful. The internet was not working well at all. It was difficult to connect, and then when we did, it would constantly buffer or kick us off.
