The room was really spacious, a little dated but not too bad. Please get some bigger wine glasses rather than a tiny thimble from a 1960’s RSL.

Liked: Amenities
Staff were courteous. The room needs some improvements. The one sink (in the bathroom) requires drain cleaning. Water did not drain away rapidly. The bed was large, firm and comfortable. The bulb was missing from a lamp beside the bed so I couldn’t use the bed lamp. The table and chairs were very handy for eating food. Lots of restaurants are nearby so the location is really good. It is good value accommodation; however, the place smells strongly of some type of air freshener. I was overwhelmed by the strong smell upon entering the room. Why use such strong air freshener? Cleanliness could be better. I had to wash a couple of chairs because they had hair on them. The place is well priced and close to the city centre. Parking spaces were located out front and close to the unit.

It’s clear management takes pride in the appearance and comfort for the people who stay at this motel. Its quirky “shearing shed” theme nudges it above other motels in Dubbo.
