Guest Reviews
- George (2/5): - Yes But your manager was very rude to me - he shouldn't have his job
- Kellie (8/5): - Handy location
- Judith (10/5): - Great one night stay.
- Cheryl (10/5): - Handy location, friendly host and nice clean rooms
- Janice (8/5): - Very well set up for breakfast, very convenient
- Chris (8/5): - All good
- Vivian (10/5): - This is a well run motel. Always clean , walking distance to Chinese restaurant for dinner, clean tidy and quiet. My husband actually slept for 7 hours so he was very happy. Been here a few times now, well worth it.
- John (8/5): - No soap for the shower. Bath with shower curtain, old decor.
- Tay (6/5): - Reception was rude
- Janeen (10/5): - It was a comfy bed and the blankets were warm. We just needed someone to crash out after a party and leave the next day so we didn't need any fancy extras. It was good value for the price.
- Barry (10/5): - Stayed one night. Got there late, left early - did not see much at all!
- ian (6/5): - Breakfast inadequate. No fruit at all on second day, with Continental Breakfast. Owner/ manager out of his depth in hospitality.
- Julie (6/5): - Could hear lots of noise from car parking area unfortunately
- Anthony (8/5): Toowoomba - and we’ll stay here again. - We stayed in one of the Riviera’s executive units. The unit had a combined living, dining, lounge and kitchenette area with a decent-sized flat screen TV and a nice sofa and coffee table. The separate bedroom had a king-size bed which was extremely comfortable and a second smaller TV. The bathroom was clean and serviceable. There was undercover car parking adjacent to the front door. Included in the quite reasonable tariff was a continental breakfast - cereal, toast with a range of condiments, and brewed coffee and tea. Not the Ritz, but good enough to start the day! The accommodation is rated 3.5 stars. We will come again.

- Mary (6/5): - I like the location of this motrl but the property is in need of a make over, mould on the bathroom curtains and a loose robe hook on the back of the door. Power point in the kitchen not securely fixed snd the plastic edging , the point , around the floor tiles is a trip hazard . Walked from bathroom to front door , the point of the join snagged my toe causing me to trip and resulted in a broken toe. Reception was notified in the morning.

- Glenn (10/5): Great value for money in Toowoomba - We stayed in a one bedroom unit. It was excellent value for money. It had a separate living area, complete with kitchen facilities. The king size bed and daily continental breakfast were added bonuses. It also had a washing machine and dryer that was shared between two units. This was very convenient especially when travelling. The motel was conveniently located and although on a busy road, inside the unit was quiet. The only drawback was that the shower was over the bath, something to be aware of, if you have mobility issues.

- Douglas (10/5): - We found it very convenient for our needs for the limited time we had there. Great beds and the new updated A/C was nice. The included continental Breakfast was wholesome and fresh. A bit rushed due to size of room but was great. Purchased some of the local jam also.
- Shanti (8/5): - I liked that it was clean and affordable. After seeing a hot plate in the photos of the breakfast buffet, I was expecting to see eggs or something warm. As I walked in on the first morning there was no hot plate. I was also expecting/hoping for a sofa and got chairs, however the bed was comfortable and the chairs were comfortable enough. Area well maintained and friendly staff.
