Light outside room window runs all night shining in bedroom. Rooms not serviced, given wrong room to start with. No hours on door for reception.
Young man on reception at check in was lovely.

1 night only
The room was great. The bathroom is dangerous with a bath/shower that is hard to get in and out of without slipping. The bathroom is also like a sauna due to no coverings on the windows which is a easy fix.

I very much enjoyed my stay at Marco Polo hotel. I will be staying again on my frequent visits to Mackay.
Theste checkin was easy, room was clean, spa tub jets only half worked but bathroom was biggest I've ever seen in a hotel.
Overall I recommend staying here without question.

Covered parking outside each unit. Comfortable bed. Good bathroom.
Nice, quiet place to stay. Room serviced our needs for the night. Only small criticism was that there was only one remote for both air cons and both tvs so we had to keep going back and forth with them and the WiFi wouldn’t connect. And possibly could have done with spare blankets or thicker blankets on the beds.
