Motel real close to town centre

It was a comfortable overnight motel stay conveniently located very close to the centre of town. Everything worked well - aircon, fridge, shower, and the basin was in a separate room to the toilet and shower, which was good.

The place was decent, but as motels and hotels move increasingly to having guests check in by methods other than a normal reception desk, I found this place to have the next best method to a traditional check-in and ask for any assistance. People should book to stay to find out!

Hotel was fine for the cost but the bed was way too soft and the room is very tired looking. Bathroom was very clean but there were cobwebs on the light and windows.

This motel has an excellent location in the middle of Broken Hill, close to shops, restaurants, takeaways etc. It is on one level, with most parking outside the units, which makes it good for older people or those with mobility issues, who don’t want to climb stairs. Facilities were comfortable, with a good shower and comfortable chairs. Keys were available contact free outside the office, probably a COVID precaution, so I didn’t speak to staff. The only drawback was traffic noise, and a strange continuous noise about 5 am, which seemed to come from a nearby room.

The room we had was disappointing, it smelled of sewerage and gave us a dreadful headache also the bedding was inadequate. I would not recommend anyone to stay there, would have gone elsewhere but no vacancies available.

Room 7 they put us in had a leaking toilet base and the entire room smelt like sewerage and covered up with air freshener. It failed.. advised that no other rooms were available. To top it off, there were covid positive people in isolation in the rooms on either side. We didn't stay.

Lovely older motel - but I mean in the sense that it's almost historic. Nice big rooms. Handy location on the main street, and walking distance to everything in the middle of town. Would stay again.
