Reviews for Q Express
Review 1:The only bad thing is we didn't get to stay long enough!
Review 2:I liked that the staff were accomodating to our needs with a toddler and a baby, also loved it was a last minute booking and had no hassles what so ever and didn't have to put a deposit down just paid when I checked in
Review 3:I couldn't switch off the light. It was hard to find.
Review 4:The rooms were nicely cleaned. As well, the bed was comfortable and the location was close to amenities.
Review 5:The room and ammenities definitely didn't match the photos on the web site... Very dated room with maintenance issues which meant 2 of the beds in the room couldn't be used...
Review 6:Late check in...
Review 7:Close to facilities I needed in between moving house: staff were friendly and helpful, clean room and spacious enough for a family of three. Overall a pleasant stay.
Review 8:The a/c wasn't working in our original room
Review 9:The staff was willing to help us with the a/c that was working. She was unable to get it working too, so she transferred us to a new room.
Review 10:Room is very comfortable with fridge, microwave, tea and coffee maker, tv, toaster and air conditioning. There is all the necessary and everyone has the own park for the car. The position is excellent and price is the best price.
Review 11:The WIFI isnt free, although they state everywhere that it is. They have realised there is money to be made from us here, and now slug everyone $5 for WIFI access...for shame!
Review 12:The location is pretty good, and the facilities are basic, but are good considering the price you pay.
Review 13:Nothing
Review 14:All the above.and the water pressure in showers is awsome have a good shower in a short time.nothing is to much trouble for the beautiful running the place.i will never book in anywere else.
Review 15:No water on day of departure due to a burst watermain which was no fault of the motel.
Review 16:Close to shops as we didn't have a vehicle. Easy location for friends and family to pick us up.
Review 17:Parking was a bit strange. Was a cockroach in the shower eek. And also only 1 towel supplied in a room fit for 3? Lucky we had our own towels.
Review 18:Free Internet.
Review 19:The tea coffee sugar and milk were not replenished for the second day, maybe because it was a sunday, Im not sure but its a bit rough waking up with no cuppa in the morning
Review 20:we were checking in late and leaving early in the morning.The staff had organised our key.The bed was an absolute dream after traveling with our young family and the room was very spacious for us.Very clean and well looked after.The staff member we dealt with was Georgina,an absolute gem,very friendly & more than accommodating..the location was perfect for us,only a few minutes to get to our location...would stay there again for sure!
Review 21:only thing i could fault is i tried to ring back after leaving to pay and got no answer i also called back into the office and no one was there i rang whilst there and no one answered.turned out not to be an issue tho as payment was taken from card i gave initially.
Review 22:ease of online booking and friendliness and helpfulness of staff on phone. overall appearance and cleanliness of rooms
Review 23:The carpet was very very dirty, not suitable for crawling babies or toddlers. its only vacuumed but never steamed. have to wear foot covers all the time.
Review 24:location is great. simple and comfort.
Review 25:No room service. Bins not emptied each day. Beds not made. For the price we paid we would of expected some room service. No phone In room. No face washer or tissues. Could not lock the door.
Review 26:The room was ok
Review 27:There were not any coffee cups in the cupboard, the grubby mark where they should have been was there. I was given two cups at reception. Upon check-out when we were doing our final check of the room and found the errant cups...in the microwave, half full of coffee from the previous occupants! Disgusting...
Review 28:Not fussed on the bathroom and toilet layout in the back rooms. Design is O.K for a couple but not for a family situation as it is difficult to dress in the shower and to remain dry you have change in the main area. The sink area needs to be enclosed with a door to allow privacy when dressing.
Review 29:Clean tidy room, close to attractions and easily accessible
Review 30:Walls are paper thin. Could hear into next room
Review 31:Super easy to check in and out. We were coming in late and they had organised our room key beforehand since reception has closed. rooms were nice.
Review 32:nothing, very happy with the room and staff
Review 33:the staff were great, late booking out, nothing too much trouble, the room had everything we need, stayed for 2 days , very reasonable rate, room was spotless, like the fact toilet and bathroom were not together, will stay again thank you
Review 34:Excellent value for our family of 5 ( 3 teenagers) plenty of coffee,tea and milk Hairdryer and ironi provided too Bathroom large and shampoo, conditioner provided too There was even a swimming pool but we didn't have time to use it
Review 35:no safety chain or bolt on door, no change of towels,no bins emptied, no ice cube tray, ability to hear conversations/noise in adjoining rooms, no phone in rooms, no instructions for aircon, no phone book in room, no popular take away food within reasonable walking distance, poor value for money, no ability to book day trips through reception, tv mounted so high it caused neck problems, toilet pedestal mounted too close to bathroom wall causing uncomfortable sitting position, no benefits for extended stay. would not recommend or stay with this company again.
Review 36:leaving
Review 37:there were no hanging rails in the cupboard and there were no places to put your wetpack in the bathroom. only 1 hanging rail for wet towels and it was in the shower. Your towel got wet while you were showering
Review 38:Microwave was filthy, couldn't use it. Tables and chairs at the swimming pool area needs cleaning, very dirty.
Review 39:Price is reasonable. Close enough to Stockland Shopping Centre, takes longer to go to the Strand. Nice pool area.
Review 40:There was a strong smoke smell in the room as if someone had been smoking in there. The next morning we saw the maid with a smoke in her mouth as she was cleaning rooms.
Review 41:Good price
Review 42:The showers could use a little repair the glass almost fell cause the shower curtain rod wasnt attatch properly. Also the office wasnt open on time
Review 43:Was a nice room, comfy beds really liked the homey feel to it
Review 44:Toilet roll holder located too close to toilet......easy to bump with leg. Smoke alarm directly above toaster....alarm went off.....Heard next doors go off too!
Review 45:Easy parking and exit of motel
Review 46:The rooms were very basic and their were other guests that were noisy and had no respect for other people. Didn't get to sleep until after midnight.
Review 47:There is no point in providing a toaster and microwave oven, with no cutlery, no plates and no microwave bowls, either need to provide them or say on the website you need to bring your own.
Review 48:Free wifi
Review 49:double power adaptor and power board, toilet to close to wall, sliding door not finished, paint on shower wall and a toaster but no plates or knifes.
Review 50:The bed
Review 51:There was some rowdy drunks in the room next to us who exchanged a few choice words at 1am - but that could happen anywhere!
Review 52:Leisurely walk to a lovely little coffee shop / deli / vintage emporium .... that opens at 7am! (which was convenient as I was out walking my infant child so the rest of my family could sleep!). Port a cot was ready; room was great for us travelling with a 2 year old & a baby.
Review 53:Only 1 power outlet on each wall & used a short 4 pack on the floor need at least a double power outlet on either side of the bed
Review 54:Lounge in Room was great clean & Tidy . Beds were comfortable
Review 55:The only thing that bothered me but its only nit picking...would be the fan could not be used because of the noise it made.
Review 56:Was worried that for the price the accommodation would be horrible. But I was pleasantly surprised. If back in Townsville Id definitely stay again.
Review 57:The shower had nowhere to hang your towel,and the door in between the rooms wasa bit hard to close.nothing too important though.in all I would stay again.
Review 58:The mattress was lovely and Comfortable and the bedding and sheets were beautifully white and fresh.
Review 59:My room wasn't serviced, but there was no information to say whether it would be. Something to wash the cups and glasses needs to be supplied.
Review 60:Nice clean room, and very nice manageress.
Review 61:The only negative was a little traffic noise as the hotel is on a busy road and my room was close to the front of the complex, but this was only a minor irritation in an otherwise pleasant stay.
Review 62:I had booked a single room but was kindly upgraded to a queen deluxe. The room was spacious and had been refurbished. The bathroom was a very good standard. Excellent restaurant, Ciabatta, is only a 4 minute drive away.
Review 63:We stayed two nights and there was no housekeeping in between. Tnere is no hairdryer in the bathroom. It is also quite far out from the center, so you really need a car.
Review 64:The room was very clean and big and the staff friendly.
Review 65:This property is well located for Charters Towers Road and all the shops along there. It's also a short walk or taxi ride to the Mater Hospital in Pimlico, which is why we chose to stay here.
Review 66:Noticed several small bugs in the room. When I woke up in the morning I had like 10 bites near my ankles. Some of those bug killing pods would be good in the room. Room was clean so could be bad luck tho.
Review 67:Finally a room that wasnt outdated and very good priced for a single bed room.
Review 68:The layout of the bathroom,toilet and vanity to be commended, excellent! The toilet separate from the shower with huge vanity unit between the toilet and shower creating great space for toiletries etc. Wonderful idea!!! Take note other motels !!!!!
Review 69:The sink is too small for the kettle The water seeps out of the bath cubicle in showers, and doesn't drain very well
Review 70:Free fast wifi Private parking Good location
Review 71:That the room was not cleaned daily, or even every second day, when we arrived on a Friday and finally asked on monday for the room to be cleaned it was that the cleaner is busy but she will see what she could do about the cleaning. It was easier to stay here instead of moving.
Review 72:Free wifi worked well
Review 73:The air conditioning unit was set into the wall above the vanity and on either side there was opaque glass that let in a lot of light - this was fine during the day but curtains would have been nice for sleeping at night so I wasn't woken up at the crack of dawn by the light. The kettle didn't fit under the tap so it was difficult to make a cup of tea.
Review 74:The room was very clean and the extra single bed was a pleasant surprise. The staff member at the reception was absolutely lovely - she was very welcoming and also very helpful and kind. It looked like the unit had been recently re-painted and the toilet and bathroom had a lovely decor. I particularly liked the shower - the water pressure was fantastic! The free wi-fi was terrific- no problems with logging on or getting and keeping a strong signal.
Review 75:towel rack was not assembled on wall. hubby moaned no cookies lol
Review 76:our room was exceptionally clean. beds were comfortable. room had been refurbished, nice tiling. carpet new smell.
Review 77:Air conditioner struggled to cool the room. Room was unserviced - something that we were not aware about until being told after arrival. Towels were changed once during our four night stay after a request from us to do so.
Review 78:Location and Wifi and the owner allowing us to choose rooms from what was available when we arrived.
Review 79:WiFi not available. Room was not clean. Shower passed all water out to the bathroom floor. In general was one of the worst so far that we have stayed in here. This is since arriving in Australia 7 Nov 2014
Review 80:Supposed to be 24hr check in but when we arrived nobody was there til hour and half later. Also when we booked on booking.com we were notified that our room would come with a free cot so we didn't take our portacot. show up at q express and we're told they don't have cots and No clean towels replaced next day
Review 81:BBQ area and pool was nice
Review 82:no one cleaning the room for 4 days my staying period. the bed and pillow not nice the tv very high of wall, neck pain when watch so much
Review 83:good.. have fox movie and sports internet connection was okey and free
Review 84:Trying to locate it! Tom Tom would not acknowledge street name apparently street has 3 names and Bowen Road does not register with it. Suggested they make entry on web site to alleviate this problem.
Review 85:The location was good not to far from eateries etc. For a busy area motel was quite quiet.
Review 86:Shower screen in unit 3 not long enough and water floods out onto the floor. We stayed 3 nights and apparently rooms are not serviced everyday. We found this unusual and disappointing.
Review 87:Room was clean and recently renovated. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Review 88:Lack of electrical sockets in room. Had to boil kettle in toilet. Also unable to fill kettle under basin tap
Review 89:Easy to park and far enough back off main route.

Review 91:warm friendly welcome to our goodbye departure was the best ive ever received in Motel living.. Nothing was to much for the staff to makes us comfortable...
Review 92:Would prefer a microwave at least in the room and need a few more power points as had to disconnect bed side lights to connect medical equipment.
Review 93:The bathroom area has all been remodelled and is now much much better than the set up was before the name change.
Review 94:I did not get my room serviced. For 3 days we made our own beds, collected towels from Reception & washed out our coffee cups & glasses in the bathroom sink.
Review 95:Was a lot outdated, needs modernising a bit
Review 96:Location and price was very good and it was very easy to find. Bed was comfortable and was within walking distance to some local shops
Review 97:First impression of the staff..extremely helpful and welcoming even on the telephone before arrival We were pleasantly surprised by the beautifully presented motel room, everything chic and new. No shabby old bedspreads or curtains, worn carpet or tired bathroom. All so fresh, new, clean and modern. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The price was incredible. Thankyou
Review 98:The light's were on all night, they shone through the top of curtains so bright I found it hard to sleep. No Jug for water in fridge. Coffee cups had no handle so you burnt your hands because they were made from thin metal. It was raining and the over flow was outside my door which went straight onto concrete making a loud noise all night.
Review 99:It was a fair price. Good location
Review 100:Wash basin was too small we had to fill the jug under the shower, had to dry the jug as the water was all over it. Could be a bit dangerous when turning it on if it wasn't dried properly.
