Early start the next morning in Proserpine, so I decided against staying in Airlie, which I usually do 3 or 4 times a year. Arrival was fine, parking was fine, room a decent size but tired. The lights go off at 9.30pm outside, no communication or discussion to be entered into. The walls are very thin (as are the curtains in regards to light) and you can hear your neighbours turning on showers and flushing the loo the next morning. And if that does not wake you, the sound of guests starting their cars will. There is nothing between you and the outside world in regards to sound buffers. Expect to wake up very early.
Being early for work by now, I set my computer up inside to get some work done, and when I sat on the chair it broke. I worked outside on a metal chair and table for an hour, then packed and left after telling the cleaner about the chair. Considering the central location when doing business In Proserpine it is unfortunate the motel should be a last resort.
