Guest Reviews
- Jeska (7/5): - Clean and quiet
- Jeffrey (10/5): -
- Bobbie (1/5): - Not clean., hair on the floor. Room smelt like cigarette smoke. Water in bathroom sink would not go down . Plates n cups not clean. Will not stay here again
- Marriott (10/5): -
- John (6/5): Convenient - Available Ok
- Stafford (8/5): - Nice traditional motel .
O Old
- Paul (10/5): - Great Location and value for money.
- Carmen (2/5): Dirty, noisy and unkept - Great location, close to cafes and town centre. Very dirty and unclean. Curtains were filthy, power switches filthy. Coffee cups in drawers had lipstick marks on them. Very thin bath towels. Ironing board in cupboard with no cover and in dire need of new microwave. Overall, in desperate need of a good clean, paint and overhaul. Also was very noisy. Workers leaving in groups at 0500 in the morning, talking loudly, starting cars. Also, to top it off there were no bedside power points at all. I have a cpap machine and could not plug it in. We stayed in the pet friendly room and got charged an extra $80 for our 2 small cavaliers. We are currently staying in a more in Mackay which is $100 cheaper, but 100 times better. Worse motel I've ever stayed in.

- Lee-Anne (8/5): - Good value for money

- Nathan (9/5): Cbd gladstone stay - Very well positioned, dining woollies & shops just out the door Not much- nothing to Bitch about anwayz
- Ian (8/5): -
- Peter (4/5): Would go to Gladstone again, but would not stay in this motel. - Hot showers. The room was not like the pictures you see. The room we had was in the middle of a renovation. Bed was so uncomfortable and needs replacing. Mould on the ceilings and behind the bed.
- Ross (6/5): Average Stay In Gladstone - It was reasonably priced, clean and comfortable. The location was good for us. The staff struggled we the use of the English language and were never at the Reception during the stated opening hours. They had to be rung when we wanted to check in and out and if we needed something. The Reception also had a strong odour from cooking which was very unpleasant.
- Alyssa (7/5): -
- brett (1/5): Diss appointment in both Booking and the accommodation for lack of communication - Went to find my booking confirmation via Booking and there was nothing there, as I had booked a while back I couldn’t even remember where I had booked. There was nothing on my Booking portal saying I had a booking so I made other arrangements. Then last night I get a no show email and was paid full rate. No phone call no email nothing telling me my stay was on the day, and no way of tracking my stay.
- Jasmine (1/5): - Nothing Everything
- Deborah (6/5): Nice enough - Spacious room with a nice bathroom Door didn’t lock and the sign that said to latch the door was useless as there was nothing to latch. Bathroom door came off the rail and dead bugs behind the door
- McKinney (6/5): -
- Ophire (1/5): -
- Celina (3/5): -
- Live (7/5): -
- Gebie (2/5): Not happy - In the CBD Noisy rude people
- Colin (7/5): -
- Sarsha (7/5): - Customer service was good My request was not answered for early check in, so arrived and nope come back at 2pm after cleaning, extra fee for my sausage dog which was not listed when booked and have never paid before at this accomodation. Payed the extra $40 to walk into the room with fluff and dust all over the floor.( NO WHERE NEAR CLEAN, PLUS NOW MY EXTRA $40 TO CLEAN ROOM) No antenna cord for TV so no connection. Will not be staying at this property again. Receptionist car parked in my car park until reception closed, had to inpack from front of driveway.
- Karen (4/5): Basic but good price - Good Location Very basic accommodation but served a purpose for a quick overnighter.
- Sherratt (1/5): Unhygienic - Nothing. But was glad i received a refund. The place was unhygienic! Im pregnant and walked into the room. Stains all over the bed & fridge. Floor wasnt even clean. Staff tried to charge an extra $300 for having a dog after i even paid for our accomodation and notified staff we had a dog with us when made booking.
Staff did offer another room but the bathroom door didnt close. I didnt feel it was safe for me with cleanliness of the place. Staff did however refund my money with no hassle which i was very greatful for. Location was right in the heart of town. If your wanting a clean room to stay in i would not recommend this place.
- Keith (8/5): - Clean
- Joseph (6/5): Ok - Location and friendly helpful staff Although clean it needs an update/ refurb
- Angel (7/5): - The room, the shower, the facility. The location near junkie ville.
- Clement (7/5): - Great location and staff. Rooms were not really that clean, the toilet was clean though!
- Alana (4/5): Overnighter only. - Definitely an overnighter, not for comfort or long stay. Bins right near the pool smelt so bad while swimming.
Floors under bed were dirty.
Wouldn’t stay again.
- Nic (4/5): -
- Welsh (5/5): -
- pauline (8/5): - The closeness to everything
- Lisa (8/5): -
- Jutta (7/5): - Schwimmbad Bereich ungepflegt
- Matt (10/5): -
- Melissa (4/5): Dirty, avoid. - Location was very central, pet friendly (dogs only) The room was dirty, food splashed on walls, bench tops, kettle, toaster, microwave and floor. Cutlery and cups had not been washed, there was dish soap but no dish cloth or tea towel. Floor hadn't been mopped, as our feet were black. Fridge was rusted, seels broken, and was filthy.
Photos are deceptive and for the price we will not stay again.
MAY I SUGGEST TO THE MANAGER, HIRE PEOPLE WHO CAN CLEAN CORRECTLY, BECAUSE YOUR STANDARDS ARE PITIFUL.
- Jennifer (4/5): Average and certainly wasn’t as expected and won’t stay there again. - Air conditioning noisy with not normal noise, remote for aircon temperamental, wifi didn’t work, tv wasn’t working . Was unable to discuss these issues as office had shut and I left before it opened.
Bathroom sink flickmixer tap loose and falling off. Walls dirty.
Curtains hanging off curtain rod as broken hanging rings.
- Elle (10/5): -
- Paul (8/5): - Very Central Location.
Fantastic Value for money.
Great Correspondence from the after hours team. Will definitely stay at the CBD Motel again. The people next door SLAMMING THIER DOOR CONTINUOUSLY FROM 4AM UNTIL 7AM WHEN THEY FINALLY VACATED THE PREMISES. Very inconsiderate Indeed.
- Ray (2/5): Totally unsatisfactory. Staff did not understand ENGLISH. Direct6ed me to cafe that was closed. Ve - After falling through a chair as it had the seat not attached and was very unstable when I sat on it, before I fell through and injured my back.
- Raymond (1/5): -
- Ohl (4/5): -
- Manjit (3/5): Ain't returning to this dump. - The reception staff was a very sad person. No enthusiasm for the job, no smiles.
He didn't give me the WIFI password.
I could not access the free-to-air TV.
The room had plates and cups but no forks/spoons.
- Darren (2/5): - Central location. Have you ever had a shower while sitting on a toilet?
Coz, it was raining and the roof leaked into the ceiling and water was raining down inside the bathroom. Pillows were very thin and made it hard to sleep. Toaster tripped out as soon as it was used. Had to go to the office to tell them to reset the fuse.
- Virginia (8/5): - The location , and the Staff was great very friendly and helpful. The door locks , could be more secure.
The bathroom was good big , but there was a smell like urine coming from the drain in the shower cubicle ?
- Jess (1/5): -
- Peter Smith (10/5): Perfect - The motel is great. Nice friendly staff, good location in the centre of town. Great bathrooms. Overall excelent value for money.
- wann (2/5): - noisy neighbours, broken and dented walls, smell, walls were covered with curtains to cover the broken wall. Bathroom door would not slide close, it was rusted, vanity had leaking taps, air con needed to be clean.
- Choudhary (8/5): -
- Josh (4/5): - No smart tv as advertised, the double bed is just 2 single beds pushed together. Room looked nothing like the photos when booked
- rhiannon (4/5): - The aircon The cockroach on the roof only 3 pillows hard to contact staff sat on a chair that was broken and fell through it and the pool looked like it had been spat in and my car park had been taken
- Aditya (10/5): - Cleanliness and freshness of the room most.
- Lingampelly (10/5): - Great location, the motel room is good.
- MARK (10/5): -
- Melissa (3/5): Avoid - It was central and pet friendly, (dogs only) Everything it was filthy.
- Senada (6/5): -
- Melissa (1/5): Discrimination and disgusting - They throw you out three days before you should leave claim you stole (totally fabricated) and refuse to give money back and refuse to tell us what we took plus police have informed us we have a right to know what we aledgedly stole
But refuse to even report to police but legally should be doing both
Regards mark jan nowick The brothel knocks on doors the lack of working fridge failed power points lack of refund when forced to go claiming we stole
Scamming business don’t ever book with any place they own
- Singh (10/5): - I loved the ambience of room it was so good one thing that amazed me was that the room had bathtub in a very reasonable price andl it is located at the perfect location where mostly everything is at walking distance which makes easy to access to anything overall it was wonderful experience staying with them.

- Felipe (8/5): -
- Colin (3/5): Fortunately just an overnight stay. - The price was acceptable The state of the room was very poor. The previous occupants had been smoking in the room and hung a sock over the smoke detector, the smoke smell lingered. Old bed linen and towels were left in the cupboard, the kettle was missing as was one of the plates and some cutlery
- Peter (1/5): The rating score doesn’t give an accurate description of the property - Nothing Staff were terrible. No one at the property. When I pressed the buzzer I was told I had to pay on line before getting access to the room as it was a Sunday and there were no staff. The property was dirty with rubbish everywhere.
