Guest Reviews

- Ken (6/5): - Very dated property
- Grech (8/5): comfortable and friendly service - It was great to have an electric blanket. The split system heating was also great No sink in the bathroom wh8ch meant we had to brush or teeth and wash our hands in the kitchen sink.
- Shona (10/5): -
- Stephen (10/5): -
- Iain (8/5): - This was an average budget hotel, that served our purpose for the weekend
- Susan (2/5): - It looked liked the Bates Motel with Norman Bates... l felt scared & unsafe... l would not recommend staying here...
- Denis (6/5): - White doona had stains on it. Sheets not ironed. Air conditioner stuck on 20 degrees. Glass shelf in bathroom hadn’t been cleaned in years. No information in room especially how to access Austar/ cable channels.
- Wayne (6/5): Adequate for our needs - Good location Old and look’s tired
- Roger (8/5): Okay for an overnight or a couple of nights. Convenient location and we will stay again. - Good location, room was clean, bed very comfortable. There seemed to be a shortage of plates and cutlery, perhaps due for restocking? No toaster!, there was room in the bathroom for a hand basin.
- Corenia (9/5): Superb -
- John (8/5): I enjoyed the motel and Ballarat. - The motel was comfortable. It was close to a shopping centre. The facilities were very good. It was good value for money.
- Sean (7/5): Good -
- Lee (7/5): Ok - Convenient Facilities in room
- Rebecca (1/5): Bad -
- Amandeep (5/5): Passable -
- Hadyn (4/5): Overpriced for room content - Spider webs in the bathroom Room needed a freshen up - smelled stale
- Margaret (4/5): Disappointed with the bathroom - Shower was cold after 2 min. Paid $230 fir a cold shower not good enough. And the toilet did not flush the whole time we were there. Told the manager and he wasn't to concerned he went and fixed it . Not sure who long it would last. Very disappointed. Only good thing about our stay the beds were very comphy .
- Chanakya (8/5): Very good -
- Thomas (7/5): Had a nice stay - Location Could do with updating
- Rachel (10/5): Exceptional -

- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Prashan (7/5): It is good location with freedom. - Isolation & good to be alone. Freedom
- Sandi (6/5): - $240 was ridiculous for a pretty basic room!!
- Belinda (7/5): Close to shops - Close to my mum’s that I want to be near. Staff were friendly and helpful. Property is run down but I think the owner has done their best with what they have.
- Yvette (7/5): Good -
- Andrea (5/5): Passable -
- Grant (6/5): - Location is good, although traffic is fairly heavy. Unit was well worn & needed at best a good clean, walls included, at worst a new paint job. Bed was comfy, but the blinds were not adequate to block out the light. Bathroom was adequate but there was no bench/basin in it, the kitchenette bench is where you clean your teeth, wash your hands, shave, wash dishes & get food. The lights above the mirror in the kitchenette don't work, so shaving is in semi darkness. I've blood to attest to that. Yes, not everyone uses an electric shaver, esp when it's left at home. I stayed a week. There's a microwave, toaster, jug to boil water but no hotplate/oven. So you'd better be a microwave wizz or have $ to buy out. The 2 cups are very small. So, not uncomfortable but when I sat in the one armchair upon arrival I got a wet arse & found the chair had been spot cleaned and was soaking. Outside, small table was the bucket of water & cloth & under it an ashtray full of butts. The pool, unusable, covered with debris, the bbq area a mess. Gardens 😦, Online photo. prob 20 yrs ago, Worse though was on day 4 or 5 I was woken by scrapping and machinery and loud voices at about 6am. The unit next door was being renovated, I think. Which lasted 2 days both starting around 6am. Not impressed. No warning from management at all. And my car was covered in dust from building material being cut outside the next door. So, I don't normally give bad ratings but this place is getting it full force.
- Darren (10/5): Happy people happy place. - Old fashioned but great host who was always there for you Relaxing and close to town but far enough away to have a pleasant nights sleep

- Nicole (6/5): Pleasant -
- Vishant (6/5): It is ok for the money you pay. - There wasn't any thing special about the place. Room had mosquitoes, there is no phone in the room to contact the reception, beds are too closed to the door which relates to outside noise.
- Graham (8/5): - Facility comfortable enough for an overnight stay in the low priced tariff bracket, clean enough, quiet, location ok, just the property is tired and needs a spruce up.
- Rodney (7/5): very good for a seventy's style building -

- Luke (4/5): In dire need of renovation. Not comfortable. Won't stay again - No shower gel. Very dated. Bed not great. Lounge very uncomfortable. Only stayed 2 nights but staff entered the room when we were out during the day. It's the middle of winter, we didn't get back to our room until after dark and expected to walk into a warm room as we left the heating on, only to walk Into a freezing room as the staff had turned the heating off. Felt very invasive to come Into the room when we were out and make the bed on only a 2 night stay.
- GEEVAKA (6/5): - Wouldn’t stay there again. The motel needs a good renovation.

- Shareen (1/5): Very dirty, smelly & run down. Advertised appliances not supplied or not working. A full can of air freshener didn’t - Very dirty, smelly & run down. Advertised appliances not supplied or not working. A full can of air freshener didn’t remove the smell. Worst place we have ever stayed
- Sarah (5/5): Comfortable place for a stop over - Great location to Ballarat pony club Very old & run down
- Kirk (6/5): Pleasant - friendly staff good bed show had no water pressure so I could not take a shower, water also went from hot to freezing cold. tap pressure in the sink was great.

- Bonnie (10/5): Comfortable overnight accommodation at an affordable price - Clean and cosy Nice staff Only one side of the bed had electric blanket
- Elvis (6/5): - The basin for ensuite was actually the kitchenette…there was hardly any toilet paper on roll and the spare one was half way…unfortunately was left with none by the morning.
- Cathryn (3/5): Very Very overpriced 2brm - Location Extremely overpriced 2bdrm room. Very shabby. And Dirty. Nothing like the pic on website. Accomodates 5 people but there is nowhere for anyone to sit other than a tiny faded kid sized 2 seater foam sofa . No table. No chairs. Tiny bench that is also the bathroom vanity. Dishes had to be washed before they cld be used. Toaster filthy. Walls need washing and painting. Filthy blind needs replacing. And for $320 per night! Sure it's rated 3 star but I think that is overly generous. Might have been 3 star.once. And $320 a night is outrageous.
- Margaret (9/5): Superb -
- Mckenzie (5/5): Passable - Friendliness of staff, comfortable bed and good parking. The lack of cleanliness. Overall it was clean and tidy, however there were some mould stains on the bottom of the shower curtain and the exhaust fan wasn't powerful enough to vacuum the steam, so there was water all over the floor in the bathroom.
- Debra (3/5): Poor - No basin in bathroom
- Iman (10/5): Excellent value for money. - The gentlan at the reception was super helpful. The room was convenient and comfortable. Excellent value for money. Certain things can surely improve. But given the cost, we had an amazing stay.
- Pete (6/5): Basic Motel but clean and comfortable -
- Debbie (4/5): - The room needs a good clean and a real musty smell in the room also
- Ingrid (6/5): Old but served our purpose - It was a last minute decision to go and it was the cheapest option I felt like it could’ve had a bit of cleaning done in bathroom but i think it’s a one man run motel so its pretty good considering
- Bre (9/5): Superb -
- Adam (10/5): wonderful and hassle free and friendly - Great location and friendly staff made our stay truly hassle-free. The room was clean and well-kept with all necessary amenities.
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
- L J (6/5): - Quiet location. Easy access. Comfortable
- Deborah (3/5): Expensive for what it was. - It was close to where we had to go. The shower pressure was great. The room was tired, shoddy workmanship in repairs. Painting repairs were terrible, no shower gel in the shower. Skirting boards were dusty
- Tia (8/5): I would stay again. - Location was great for what I needed it for. Bed was great. TV great. Very Clean My son drove me there & the first thing I noticed was the GREEN pool. Guessing the pump needs replacing or something like that. So my first impression wasn't good. But I was pleasantly surprised how clean it was for its age. Staff was very accommodating & very friendly. I hope they do something soon about the pool as it is off putting.
- Lisa (4/5): Disappointing -
