Guest Reviews
- Marie C (8/5): Ideal location especially if you're not driving - Close to restaurants, tourist centre, supermarkets, coach pick-up & drop off poing Dark shower curtains, heavy plates bowls cups
- Julie (10/5): - Everything
- Allan (10/5): Great location - Everything Nothing. It was great
- Graham (10/5): -
- Winn (10/5): -
- Chenmin (1/5): Unforgettable Night - Bedsheet is clean. We checked in quite at around 7pm (this considered late as sky went fully dark at 5.30pm) and we see the few extremely huge Australian Rat, as big as Cats outside our room waiting for us. The areas are extremely dim and hard to locate rooms. After wandering around Australian Rat area for 10 minutes, we are finally found the room, it was such a disappointment. The room is extremely old, it look like 70s in movies, the whole room's carpet are dusty and smell like old fridge. We are so afraid to walk in the room with barefoot. After ventilating and aircon, it was a bit bearable and we can only quickly force ourselves to sleep and hope we can end the suffering as earlier in the morning as possible. There is no shower gels, no shampoo, no toothpaste/ toothbrush. The only thing you will have is a piece of soap and that should be all you used for your body. Towel look old with stain so be prepared to bring your own. Kettle / Boiler have some stains and smells so don't even try. And it is not cheap though.
- Ian1952 (8/5): Comfortable and central. - The motel is very well-located just a short walk from the main street of Margaret River and all of its shops, restaurants, etc. The arrival and departure are handled through a drop-box outside the room (with information via email), so it was quick and easy. As a consequence, we did not see or interact with any of the staff. The room was comfortable and equipped as expected. Nothing really - it was a typical, good standard motel room.
- Christine (8/5): -
- Tobias (8/5): -
- Matt (8/5): -
- Rhonda (9/5): Was a great motel. Would stay again. - The location was central to all the attractions. The room space & facilities at the motel were excellent.
- adolfo (8/5): -
- Maria Grazia (8/5): -
- McDowell (8/5): -
- Jacinta (7/5): Comfortable - I thought the beds were comfy and the tv had lots of channels, the airconditioning was also very good. The showers are so small and very old. There’s mould in the grout. Bathrooms could use a renovation definitely.
- Basopo (7/5): -
- Carmel (9/5): A great property to base yourself in the middle of Margaret river. - Location was great.
- Paul (10/5): Fantastic - Great room and location
- Andrew (7/5): Great - Location is perfect right in the centre of Margs Very clean Could do with some shower gel
- Fiona (8/5): Comfortable - will be returning - Great location. Good value. Basic but met our needs. This is the third time we have stayed here. Noise through walls can be heard on occasion from adjoining rooms. No nespresso :(
- Noriyuki (10/5): - Lauraさんがとても親切
- Patrick (8/5): -
- Rene (8/5): Great room and location - Room was completely comfortable and a great location close to all amenities Nothing
- Paul (10/5): Thank you - Staff Nothing
- Louise (8/5): Been staying here for work travel more than 10yrs so would love to see a bathroom & kitchenette upgrade - Convenient location, 3 supermarkets within walking distance and cafe across the road for morning coffee. Checkin a breeze and efficient The bathrooms although adequate badly need renovation, lighting in here is poor
- Stuart (8/5): - Not huge rooms but comfortable and clean with a newish bathroom/shower. Great location in the heart of town.
- Brooke (7/5): The location was very convenient and it was a comfortable - The location and the comfy bed The shower dripped a lot and was very small.
- Wafina (7/5): Good location, good price for a short weekend stay. Comfortable bed, clean room, hot showers. - Bed and blankets were comfortable and warm. Air con (we used heating function in this instance) worked very well. The small kitchenette is well-equipped with everything that we needed. Overall room cleanliness was good. Shower was nice and hot. Location is superb, walking distance to everything in the main area of town. Ample parking just outside. A couple of feedback for the bathroom (shower and sink) situation below. Shower floor does not appear clean (lots of dark spots) - possibly due to age of the room, or need a good scrubbing on the shower floor. Bathroom sink emits strong sewerage smell in the evening so we had to just plug it and use a LOT of the bathroom spray and we ended up using the kitchenette sink to wash our hands.
- Penny (8/5): Very happy. - Bed was very comfortable Not fully self contained, but manageable.
- Jan (10/5): -
- Craig (8/5): All good - Great location close to main area good car parking Large room . Easy to get to the Winery’s and point of interest Hair dryer did not work
- ChloeJSS (7/5): Great location and did the job for a short stay. - The room was spacious, with bathroom and kitchenette. Great location just a short few minutes to walk to the main street in Margaret River. Not a great start with a dead fly next to the sink. The kitchenette cabinets and bathroom felt a bit dated.
- Diane (10/5): Great value for money - Great location just off the Main Street, easy parking, good size rooms and bathroom.
- Toralf (8/5): -
- Aleesha (7/5): - Clean, spacious, basic, good for the price Parking wasn't great as wasn't many spots near our unit, self check in was confusing to find unit and people outside our door all night you can hear everything
- David (1/5): We didn’t - Nothing After staying in many good properties on this holiday, many through booking.com, this was a shock as it was appalling. Looking at the property as advertised in booking.com this bore no resemblance to the property we visited. We decided that we could not stay here so we sought alternatives at short notice, a problem due to it being ANZAC weekend upcoming. We managed at great cost to secure a room at Margarets in Town apartments and believe that we are entitled to some compensation for the inconvenience. We also consider that this property was so far below the normal quality that Booking.com provides that you should review your listing of this property or at least display pictures of the property as it really is. Externally it looks like an American motel from the 1950’s.
- Mike (4/5): Nice location, bring your own shampoo! - Property was convenient to Main thoroughfares in Margaret River, including dining options and coffee shops. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the Drift across the street. I thought it unusual that shampoo was not provided. We travelled several hours to reach the location and didn’t realize emails were sent to us regarding access to our room.
- Robert (9/5): -
- Rick (10/5): - Location

- Amy (8/5): Conveniently located right in the centre of town. A short walk to most of the local restaurants and shops. - Convenient location. Ease of check in and out. Room was basic but tidy and clean. The only negative thing we experience was some noise from people walking past late at night. Besides that all was quiet and good.
- Ronald (10/5): A great location short walking distance to the hub of Margaret river. - Great location - facilities great, staff very helpful and pleasant. Nothing
- Pamela (7/5): - Convenient location. Easy to find. Meal sources within walking distance. Nothing
- Alejandro (10/5): Perfect Stay - the location of this place is excellent, close to cafes, supermarket, and everything in margaret river, room was amazing
- heather (9/5): Central comfortable - Central practical not luxury but very comfortable
- Brenton (7/5): Great location but could use a freshen up - Location Very old
- John (6/5): -
- Gabriela (10/5): Very comfortable - Liked the fresh linen, clean rooms, spacious room as well, stayed in a family room. It has a microwave and a bar fridge. Super quiet place, but right across Woolworths, cafes, and half block from the main street. NA
- Becky (7/5): - Location and the room
- Emma (10/5): Amazing - It is a beautiful little place to stay and so convenient in the heart of Margaret river
- Susan (8/5): Relaxing and convenient - Very clean, close to the shops and restaurants, felt very safe
- Bianca (10/5): -
- Arjun (7/5): - The service quality is consistent with the rate charged per night. There was a mop and bucket located inside the room near the kitchen, which I found distracting. If management could arrange to have these items stored elsewhere, it would enhance the overall experience for guests staying in the room.
