The room smelt terrible and was not clean, particularly the bathroom. The service was poor, milk and coffee not replaced from one day to the next. Noise from guests leaving at 4.30am woke me as the door didn’t even lock properly and I had to put a chair against the door… terrible experience and I paid for three nights.

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.
It was a very clean and quiet room with a modern bathroom and good facilities. Great value for money! :-)

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I was not able to use this booking. Staff said the motel was full and that they neither take bookings from wotif nor expedia.
This booking was a waste of time. I would like my money refunded please.
It was clean and convenient to all places. The signage at the front was not so good, hard to find and drove by it a couple of times when going back to it…. A grey sign with grey wall..not so good.

Liked: Cleanliness
Clean and tidy rooms with basic cooking and bathroom facilities. Motel is close to fast food outlets and a brief drive to a shopping centre. Unfortunately, the motel was fully booked which meant lots of noise. Between that and an uncomfortable mattress, it was very difficult to sleep. A fair place to stay for a night.
Good basic accommodation. We chose as storms predicted so wanted covering for vehicle. Friendly hosts. Plenty of food options walkable distance. Overnight stay as close to hospital.
