Default brisbane motel help

We hope to be flying out to Townsville in April. to get the best time of day to fly from lhr, we will have to stay overnight in Brisbane. Looking online we have found a motel on the airport site.
can anyone tell me if the price for a family room is per person or per room?
Has anyone stayed in the motel?
thanks in advance

Does it have a name? It might be easier to assist you then.

If you are talking about the Formula One Motel, then the rate is per room, about $59 or $69 i think, per night.

Sorry that was really stupid of me. we have seen a few motels online. Airlodge international and Airport Motel, seem to be very close to the airport, which would be good as we are travelling with 3 small children.
thanks

I looked on Wotif.com and there were a few airport motels for Brisbane listed - Airpor Clayfield full rate (i.e. not the Wotif discount) family room is quoted as $115 - queen bed and 3 singles.

Details on :
Motel Formule 1 Brisbane Airport (10 mins to Airport)

18 Navigator Place, Hendra
Brisbane QLD 4011
Australia
PHONE:
(61) (07) 3868 3457

web site
It's part of the accor group of hotels. I stayed in one in France and it was pretty basic but OK.

More info;
At Motel Formule 1 we can accommodate up to a maximum of 3 people per room using existing bedding. This usually consists of a queen size bed and a single bunk bed in each room. Unfortunately, extra rollaway beds and cots are not available. Linen is provided.
Each room has a remote control colour television, as well as ensuite bathroom with shower and toilet
