Shamrock Gardens Motel, hotel in Mackay

Located in Mackay, 1.5 miles from BB Print Stadium Mackay, Shamrock Gardens Motel has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

The breakfast provided was awful. I think you should allow guests to select items from a larger list. I do not eat white bread, drink juice, eat yoghurts nor breakfast cereals. Also you could invest in a relatively cheap coffee machine that uses coffee pods. Instant coffee does not cut it for a paid breakfast.

Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.
