Good stay for 1 night but dated

Room was dated and had damage to the ceilings. The TV didn’t work and the fly screens on the windows had holes so insects would come in if the window was open.

A wonderful stay in Nowra

The rooms have been refurbished and are looking modern and fresh. There are both soft and hard pillows, a nice couch and a great large widescreen TV. The motel is away from the highway so it's very quiet and there is a great coffee and donut cafe across the road. Will stay again

We only had an overnight stay, and it was absolutely perfect! George Bass Motor Inn was the 7th hotel or motor inn we have checked in, on our 3 weeks road trip, and it was the best! It's spacious, with all amenities provided with quality. Everything was presented with great impression, and the beds were very comfortable!!! Kitchen had most things we needed, and what a big fridge!! Sadly, we only stayed overnight. Wish, we were not just passing by needing a place to rest and sleep. But we definitely recommend George Bass Motor Inn. Should we be going back to Nowra, this is the place to be.

Not great, not terrible

as the title says, it's just ok. Very basic, but ok for a short stay. Room is a bit dark, kind of clean, relatively quiet, with parking available.

Once I settled in, my stay was great. But I arrived to check in and the receptionist was not there, despite it being open hours. She arrived 1 hour later with no apology or recognition. So I couldn’t properly check in to my room for some time. Generally a good stay, great facilities, clean, location is great, it was just soured by the poor customer experience at check-in.

Business in Nowra.

Well appointed rooms. Excellent customer care, especially by Millie. Larger rubbish bin in the room would be useful, even though there are bins outside. Remember to hang card on the door if you require a room service.
