Guest Reviews

• Brett McLeod (7/5): Does the job - Lovely Friendly staff Being a joined to the hotel area and backing onto the hotel carpark it was very noisy at times. Budget accommodation and it is what it is.
• Harriet (6/5): - Room itself was great size, and clean. Comfortable bed. Its next door to the bookies and our room backed onto the car park at the front, so could be noisy late at night. No TV remote to use the TV.

• Galea (4/5): Issues that could be improved on.. - Bed, hot water in shower. No liquid soap in the shower, no plates to have our own breakfast cereal in the morning. Very strong smell when we opened the door to leave in the morning.. no staff to leave the key with or tell them about our issues.
• Brodrick (1/5): - Nothing at all customer service was shit Customer service
• Chris (7/5): -
• Lorraine (7/5): Loved the clean room staff were friendly and welcoming - Clean and tidy Bit old but still clean and tidy
• Wylie (10/5): - Clean comfortable and great location
• Richard (2/5): - The meal was great, especially for the price. I understand that it's not the motels fault that customers stayed after closing and drunk in the car park until 3am smashing glass and open doors. Not sure what the go was, but I never realised females enjoyed urinating behind cars so much. Its not the motels fault the fire alarm went off in the early am hours. These things happen. The icing on the cake was the tradesman drilling into the walls and installing cable at 5am on the morning. Directly out from our room. Went to have a go at him but he bolted. I tried phoning the manager to complain. A staff member took the call, after explaining the issue she stated she would fetch the boss. The phone was just left sitting on the bar while the manager was on the way. Unfortunately I could hear them in the background so wasn't expecting it to be picked up. So after a couple of minutes of waiting I hung up.

• Clayton (10/5): - Clean and tidy although it was a small room friendly staff and amenities Nuffing tbh
• Rebecca (7/5): The facility is older and bit outdated but very clean and comfortable. Perfect for a quick stay on a long journey. - The staff were lovely, carpark is away from the main road, room was clean and smelt fresh, bed was comfortable and not much road noise. Car park is a little tight to navigate but still ok.
• Hay (6/5): school holidays account for over pricing, lower end accom. suited our needs (last minute booking) 3⭐ - There is a restaurant onsite apparently, we were too tired to attend, but still no breakfast offered. Water pressure,odour in room, toilet tissue ( why we always bring our own) no breakfast
• Mark (7/5): -
• Leanne (8/5): Clean comfortable accommodation in a convenient location. - Clean rooms, comfortable bedding. Convenient location. Bathroom clean with excellent water pressure. Hot water was amazing. Good size television for the room size. Like the entry to rooms, no key, passcode instead. Easy access to ding facilities. Car parking was a bit inconvenient when other guests parked in our spots. Could have used two pillows per person. Some plates would be handy given there was a toaster in the room.
• Gaylene (8/5): - The food
• Gaylene (8/5): - The food was well over priced never got everything we ordered then had to wait for the rest while everything was cold
• Brian (7/5): - The room was large and bed comfy Could do with an iron and hairdryer and maybe the cleaners need to check that the microwave has nothing in it and that the body wash bottle in the shower needed to be filled
• Jordan (1/5): -
• Fay (6/5): -
• Joss (8/5): Convenient place to stay for overnight in Rockhampton - Able to park large vehicle & pop up caravan. Nothing I can think of.

• Damian (8/5): Very good -
• Belinda (7/5): Good - Location to sporting event Out dated and smoking area right outside our room
• Rebecca (7/5): Good -
• Lucinda (6/5): Pleasant - Location, basic room without 'frills' but it was comfortable and very clean Parking spots outside of rooms are far too narrow and configured in a way that makes it virtually impossible to reverse back out/turn around to exit onto the street.
• Simon (5/5): It’s a cheap place to stay, don’t expect much from it - Bed wasn’t too bad Main issue with the property was the fridge given it froze our fresh food even while in the fridge and no heating, which during winter isn’t the best They only had a basic window air con unit that only did cold
• Lilli (8/5): Don’t judge a book by its cover. - The bed was so so comfortable. I normally wake early but here I woke up after 8.30 am. Incredible Bistro area a bit dark

• George (8/5): Pleasant, comfortable - Especially liked the parking facilities as had my vehicle loaded, ideal for travellers relocating!
• Lake (8/5): Very good -
• Sharon (4/5): Motel room dated and noisy. Hotel food terrific. - The food in the hotel was wonderful, the staff friendly and atmosphere good. The accomodation was very dated, whilst it was clean, some of the fixtures were showing definite signs of old age. The noise of the window rattling and hoon drivers outside were not conducive to a good night's sleep.

• Melanie (5/5): Staff really friendly but room was under par - Staff were really friendly and helpful. Food at restaurant was good. Location is good. Room needs updating and some maintenance done. Hot water took long time to come through shower head. At 1.30am someone tried to open our hotel door and were rather loud and then tried to open my car door. Suggest moving smoking section away from rooms.

• Phil (7/5): Good -
• Marlise (7/5): Friendly and welcoming - We received a very friendly welcome. The room, the bed and the bathroom are very basic but clean. The air-con too noisy for our liking. We appreciated the tea/coffee facility. We picked this Hotel/Motel due to the possibility for a decent meal. The menu was a real surprise and the meal was excellent. Also the service was very friendly and professional.
• Ieremia (4/5): Disappointing -
• Judy (10/5): Exceptional - Staff were friendly, very kind, very considerate, and very accommodating... especially appreciated considering the stress we were experiencing (daughter being flown into Rockhampton by RFDS in early labour). Liked also that we could dine on site at bistro.
• Cameron (3/5): Poor - Curtains stayed open, so there was no privacy, Carpark spaces to close no room to move. Shower head was disgusting look like it needed to be replaced. No batteries in TV remote. Room looked nothing like the photos on the booking app. Will never stay there again. The staff were great though very helpful and pleasant to talk too.
• Matthew (1/5): Don’t pay for this motel with Booking.com. They will charge you twice. - The furnishings were nice. It could use a microwave and wifi to connect to the smart tv. The manager said that they don’t accept Booking.com payment so I had to pay twice for the same booking.
• Deanne (7/5): Good for the time we were there - Pub Parking
• Deanne (7/5): Good -
