This property exceeded our expectations. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment and it was huge, with lovely views of the river, mountains and stadium. The location is very convenient, walking distance to the Cowboys leagues club and stadium which was the purpose of our trip. There are options within walking distance for dining, takeaway and groceries. Check in and check out was very easy also. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Townsville.

Back again

We have been visiting Townsville for the last 15 years for work and now for health (nothing serious). For the last couple of years Islington at Central has been our preferred place to stay, the apartments are a good size, it's close everything and has secure parking.

Friendly service. In relatively good condition on arrival, however there was rubbish behind, under the beds and on the floors. The carpets and showers did not appear to be vacuumed/sanitised from the previous visitors. Exhaust fan above the stove was not working and ‘zapped’ one of the visitors hand. Notified the front office, never heard back.

Carpets were stained and dirty. Dishwasher had a massive out of order sign stuck to it. Room smelled like it has never had fresh air through it. Kitchen was good. Cooking utensils average. No oven trays etc. Having a laundry was excellent. Good location. Outdoor pool was large. Walls had marks everywhere. Could definitely use new paint and carpet. Wont stay again until there renovated. Friend stayed one floor up from us. And her floors were the same.

Had a late check in, key was not there. Had to call and wait for someone to come and sort a key. Aircon in loungeroom and kitchen didnt work, no communication that they didnt work. They are great apartments in a great location, just a couple disappointing factors that could have been communicated or done better.
