La Cochon Rose Motel

The room was big enough to stay in. Had a toaster which most motel's don't and enough dishes for all guests. The hot water in the shower was brilliant and hot. The beds were comfortable and had electric blankets comfy

The carpark was very small. I was not advised ahead of time that the carpark can't really accommodate larger vehicles. We came with a ford raptor and it took a while to maneuver to leave the car park. The heater also wasn't the strongest. We went in winter and the room was quiet cold.

I was travelling with our Managing Director for business, and the property was not up to a commercial standard. I only booked this property as it was a country town and other Motels in this town and surrounding towns were fully booked. The photos on booking.com showed a quaint old house which while not 5 star it still looked quite reasonable for a rural area. However, the "apartment" was upstairs in an old, abandoned pub, we walked inside and were greeted by a pile of disused furniture in the foyer area and one single light on to show the stairs to get to the apartment. Once inside the apartment we walked around it, many of the windows would not latch close, it was freezing and drafty, there was a hole in the living room window, there were no smoke detectors or fire extinguishers in the property, there was one emergency fire exit upstairs and it was blocked by a pile of unused furniture. It was completely unsatisfactory and we left as neither of us were comfortable staying there. We had to drive 2 hours back to Ballarat to find accommodation for the night, I text the owners as we left the property Monday night and have requested my money ($273) back but have had no response and it is now Wednesday.

Nothing.

I booked in and nobody was there to check me in. Nobody answered the phone number. Had to travel a long distance to get accommodation

Location and good value

Little outdated but clean and functional.

Convenient quiet location. Affordable clean rooms.

Could do with some new carpet.

Clean and convenient location

Excellent location, near the Dancing Kelpie bistro. Very comfortable bed, efficient fridge and aircon, very easy check-in process via phone, excellent value.

The TV needs to work on more than two channels, but this is a very minor quibble.

location, right in CBD, easily walk in town; pet friendly !

a bit dated, small wash basin, 2 TV channels, parking bit tight,
