- Chris (5/5): - Hot water was non existent! No one around to report it too
- Thu (5/5): It’s good enough for just staying 1 night. - Contactless check-in / check-out 👎There’re no towels for guests
Furnitures/Appliances are very old school style.
- Warren (7/5): - Nice staff Too far from pubs restaurants. No way to get there. 20 minute walk. No taxis
- Kaur (9/5): -

- Eva (7/5): Ok for one night. - Good location on the way to Wilson's Prom about 45min from the entrance gate. Easy communication with the staff via booking messages. Everything is old and/broken. Lots of duat on cuttlery, dishes, floor. Ant colony just in front of my room.
- LISA (10/5): Quick overnight stay - It was very cold when I checked in but the staff had already put the heater and electric blanket on for me which was very much appreciated. The room was cosy and the bed comfy and everything very clean. I had no transport so I couldn't find anywhere close enough to walk for breakfast. If there is somewher close it would be great to advertise it
- Dianne (7/5): Comfortable bed - We didn’t require breakfast. The turn to travel into Leongatha is dangerous because you can’t see the traffic outward bound to Korumburra because of the hill. I turned towards Korumburra and then did a u turn when it was safe. The owner of the motel was friendly and accessible

- Sue. (7/5): -
- Joy (7/5): Leongatha was good and motel very quiet. - Not what we didn't like but power flicked out on bed side of the room at around 9.00pm and we had certainly not overloaded anything, and this made for an uncomfortable few minutes until we hooked up power board etc from across the room so we could have electric blankets etc.
- jlej (6/5): - We had no breakfast but it was handy as we needed to be at hospital early in morning Maybe bathroom more updated
- Maria Corazon (9/5): -

- Brenna (8/5): -
- Trevor (10/5): could easily have stayed longer in this comfy motel - great handy location close to all you need.freindly courteous staff that look after you. very peacful location. dont really notice the traffic noise from highway. i think its the best place to stay in leongatha for most travellers and highly reccommend nothing not to like
- Todd (7/5): Good -
- Robert (6/5): Pleasant -
- Dianne (5/5): Passable - Bathroom needed a good go over with bleach
- Sheree (10/5): Exceptional -
- Holden (3/5): Once bitten twice shy - Very old and dated, I had to go out a purchase an electric heater as the one supplied was useless. The couch was filthy and very well used needs tipping!!
- Aphro (8/5): Very good -

- Stephen (8/5): Very good -
- Krista (6/5): Pleasant -
- George (6/5): Pleasant -
- Joy (7/5): Good -
- Robert (7/5): Good -
- Paul (3/5): Well located to rail trail, but cleanliness needs to pick up - The motel was easy to find and convenient to the rail trail The room was very musty and I felt itchy throughout the stay
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Louise (8/5): Very good -
- Daniel (1/5): Never stay here again - Nothing Everything
The shower floor was cracked in two different places so it sinks when u stand on it
The fan was dirty dosent look like it’s been cleaned in years
The beds were un comfortable
People in the rooms next to you were loud until 3am then started at 6am
And just the motel overall condition and surroundings looked shit
- Janice (5/5): Wouldn’t stay again - The view. Basically clean. Tired, old, frayed around the edges.
Kettle didn’t work. Old smell to the place. Fridge needed defrosting.
- Fee (4/5): Disappointing - Easy location, close to where I needed to be. My child found dirty lighter in her bed, room smelt like cigarette smoke. Due to time of night and length of travel with young children did not have time or looking for different room.
No staff available on checkout
- Maria (8/5): Very good -
- Davies (6/5): Pleasant - No internet and if there was, no password given
- Yarran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ian (6/5): Pleasant - Convenient to town Too close to highway traffic
Room was dated eg cracks on wall facilities average
- Lisa (8/5): Very good - Pleasant, but a little disappointing.
- David (8/5): Very good -
- William (5/5): Grossly overpriced for what was offered. - The room size was good. The bathroom needs a complete overhaul. The screen door for the shower was totally unacceptable and needs replacing as does the towel rack. The loud air-conditioner had to be turned off so we could sleep as it was too noisy. At $140 the motel was the worst value booking by far on our trip.
- Amanda (7/5): Quirky and very retro but comfortable. - The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. We had a new kettle, toaster and microwave and as we were there 2 nights they changed our towels on the second day which was a pleasant surprise. It was a little way out of town to walk anywhere and even though on the main highway we heard no road noise at all. It was very retro - most things could do with an update including the air conditioner which only had one speed - loud and icy!
- Dalibor (8/5): Very good -
- Lloyd (6/5): Pleasant -
- Colleen (6/5): For an overnight stay, we were comfortable and had all that we required. - Comfortable bed and clean overall. The towels were too thin, could do with some new replacements.
- Rodger (8/5): For what I needed ,fine ! - Look a bit dated ,bathrooms need attention ,a reasonable walk from town (no taxi's/Uber ) but beautifully quiet.An outlook over ope fields np traffic noise and one of the best sleeps ever . A bot closer to town !
- Angela (10/5): it was clean easy quiet area - easy to get too , clean
- Michael (5/5): Passable -
- Leon (7/5): Okay - Nothing flash,but good value for money,clean tidy and comfortable ,would definitely return if the need arises
- Steven (7/5): Pleasant, good value accommodation. - The room was pleasant and comfortable. You can park right in front of your room and there was a garden with a barbeque that could be used. The hot water pressure was quite low and perhaps the bathroom could be updated but realistically this was good value for money.
- Barbara (7/5): Even tho needs an update it was comfortable - The bathroom made my 44yr old bathroom at home look modern! The aircon could do with an update
- Christine (8/5): Very good -
- Brendan (1/5): disapointing - poor condition, ac ineffective,shower facilities dirty not functional , bed suitable
- Sandra (7/5): Was comfortable and we were happy - The location was good All ok but it did have a leaky toilet and sink leaked which made the hairdryer not work
- Fiona (2/5): Very poor - Water pressure in shower was fantastic. We were near the back of property so no road noise. Staff not over friendly at check in. Room was VERY musty smelling. Towels were tiny and paper thin. Arm chair was stained. Everything was very old.
- Lachlan (8/5): Very good -
- Geoff (6/5): Pleasant -
- Brad (8/5): Very good -
- Ashley (8/5): Very good -
- Gavin (8/5): Very good -
