The service was fantastic. We arrived after check-in, but they have a perfect system for late check-ins. The room was nice, spacious, and clean. One warning to those who may be sensitive to smells is that they use scented plug-ins. Our room smelled strong and gave me an instant migraine. I had to unplug it, set it outside, and air out the room for a while. Also, the smoking area seemed to be at the end of the first floor and the smell of smoke was strong as we exited our room as we were on the other end of that hallway. We are just not used to it, so it made me feel ill. But if the smell of cigarettes doesn't bother you, it may not be an issue for you. If I stay again, I'd ask them to remove the plug-ins from my room ahead of time and ask for a room away from the smoking area. Otherwise, it was a lovely stay!

Over night stop!
Stop over en route to Gold Coast, reception helpful with advice on dining options, but being adjacent to Motorway resulted in a very restless night, did notice that ear plugs in bathroom the next morning maybe they would have helped!!!

Highway traffic and early morning construction noise were off-putting. Also, the property listed laundry as something offered at the motel. It turned out to just be a limited laundry service offered from 10-5 daily, not an onsite washer and dryer. The receptionist was nice enough to direct me to a local laundromat, but would have preferred to have had it onsite.

Great location and very clean
I found the Motor Inn very comfortable with excellent room provisions allowing for my own preparation of breakfast. Having a Microwave, toaster etc was great. Bed comfortable and bathroom although a little dated was totally fine and very clean. Traffic noise in the morning was not excessive despite being reasonably close to the Highway. Very convenient location and very friendly and helpful staff. Would stay again
