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.

Annie the host was very nice and friendly. Great location and close to nearly everything. Room was very average and is overdue for major renovations. It served its purpose. Fine for 1 or 2 nights but that’s the limit.

Owners were very friendly. Beds and room were comfortable and clean. Light over single bed was broken, and sliding door to bathroom kept coming off bottom runner. Ceiling fan only worked on full speed. Very close location to shopping and beach. Coffee shop near by as was supermarket. Enjoyed our stay.

Location was great close to everything you need. place is very run down, and when booked given option of 2 double beds and 2 single beds at booking only to find that room doesn't exist when we arrived. So 5 people had to share 4 beds with very limited linen and comfort.
