All good, but very busy and noisy for a week's stay. Hospital and university close by. We did not know Toowoomba, should have done more research about the area. Would be ok for one or two nights.

The room was spacious, neat & clean & the reception staff were lovely. Unfortunately the room we had was right at the front of the inn on the main road & the traffic noise was quite bad till very late. But, it needn’t have mattered as the aircon was the noisiest I have ever heard & woke me up repeatedly, keeping me awake thoughout the night. As it was August, we really needed to leave it on & which, really shouldn’t have been a problem, I got 2 hours sleep, which before an early start for a long drive the next day, was less than ideal.
