This is a great place for travellers to stay overnight as part of a leg. Great location close to shopping, Maccas and KFC plus next-door to other eateries. Bathroom door was hard to open and close and had to lift it up to move. TV had no channels. Shower was 11/10 tho. Great pressure and nice and hot. I would definitely stay here again.

This motel is very clean and very basic. Only two pillows, no spares, no blanket on the bed and a thin cover in the wardrobe. No hand towel or face clothes or shampoo. As often happens the photos look much better than the reality.

Unfortunately I cannot rate this motel well. Dirty bathroom with mould, a broken shower curtain rail, windows that would not lock, broken screens, and insufficient bedding (1 sheet and 1 blanket in winter is not enough).

This room is nowhere near $210 we paid for it. So overpriced. The coffee table was sticky with a thick coat of grime. Bathroom door didn’t have a lock, no light in toilet. Previous guests old toilet roll left around. There were extra large cockroaches in the kitchen probably due to dominos shop behind motel. There were tiny insects everywhere. Hard to tell what they were, but you could see them all over mobile phones and feel them on your legs. The occupants of other rooms seem to be long term residents waiting for housing who had their cars there for years which an inch of dust all over it. Not a comfortable feeling walking around. Just after midnight someone had either a chainsaw revving or a petrol blower revving for about 10-15 min. Most of the lights didn’t work and it was so dark outside you couldn’t see where to go to get upstairs. I’m currently saying in the most beautiful motel at Hervey Bay for $155. Clean and recently renovated and much cheaper.

You do not get what you pay for.

We paid for Balcony, free breakfast and free internet. We received a ground floor room with only block out curtains so we could not open for natural light. Other wise you are in a display window. All fly screens were torn. No breakfast, no toaster, no microwave and no plates. Internet did not work at any time. We did ask for a microwave and toaster, but never got one. Excuse for not getting what we paid for was that she/owner has to pay high fees to Hotels.com.
All furniture in room except bed, bedsides and table and 2 chairs
Contents of unit minus the kettle.
