This is a really great motel. It was lovely and quiet and I actually slept really well which is unusual when away from home. The room was very clean and well maintained. There was a microwave, kettle, small fridge as well as crockery which if staying for a few days would be very handy, especially with so many shops at the end of the block. Staff were lovely and helpful. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

WE use the Ruthven Street Motor Inn for our stays in Toowoomba. Usually the pricing is reasonable and the rooms suit our needs. It is also conveniently located to get around Toowoomba should your visit require that.

The only issue being that there were no staff in the office even though the sign indicated they would be there at that time we arrived (around 3pm). All contact was via the mobile and the lock box.

We stayed overnight in Toowoomba to break up a long drive. We arrived late and left early, so our stay was brief. The motel was suitable for what we needed though.
