Guest Reviews

Peter (8/5): -
Leanne (7/5): -
Susan (1/5): -
Robbie Duncan (1/5): - Absolutely Nothing. The room was from the 1980s despite them having updated pics on their website. False advertising There was thick dust on the ledge of my bed . im asthmatic so i complained. they then put me in another dusty room with black mold on the windows . after complaining and asking me for a refund and they refused. I was then put in one of their renovated rooms with stains on the carpet and soap scum build up in the shower. These rooms never get cleaned properly
Deborah (7/5): - Close proximity to our venue on the night Unfortunately we had very rude and noisy people arrive on our second night yelling ,banging on doors to let them in no respect shown for other guests rang management and was told they would look into lt this went on nearly all night needless to say it spoilt our stay there
Dane (8/5): - Good value for money. The traffic was a bit noisy but bearable
Hugo (2/5): Short - The staff were lovely. We were a little let down by the overall cleanliness of the property as there was a lingering smell. You get what you pay for.
Vorschuetz (5/5): - not much Sometimes you have to clean thorough
Julie (8/5): - Basic Small Clean
Michelle (8/5): Was very comfortable - Comfortable and easy to get to Some things needed cleaning re information book/ fridge
Manuel (5/5): -
veness (9/5): -
Daniel (8/5): -
Peter (8/5): another 2 good nights stay at the tower motor inn - Friendly staff easy check in and great value nothing
RONALD (3/5): We ended up here due to a family emergency booked last minute. - Location Very dated, old and not welcoming,
Emma (5/5): -
Chris (6/5): - It was cheap and bed was comfortable Too much road noise
Courtney (10/5): -
Katrina (7/5): Easy, comfortable bed, great water pressure in shower. - Location A bit dated and walls are thin. Neighbour in next room kept us awake most of the night with their snoring (can’t blame motel for his snoring I know)
Arvydas (8/5): -
Dominic (5/5): - Room was as described 24 hour booking and check in via kiosk seems to attract trouble. All night noise and no one onsite to control it. Rooms were made up the first night but nothing after that. Assuming because it was a long weekend.
Lochlan (7/5): -
Karen (6/5): Not terrible but not great either - Room has recently been renovated. Room is well appointed. Aircon worked well. Bed comfortable (although moves a bit when you move). We were down the back so didn't really hear any road noise. I was lucky enough to check in when staff were present. Even though recently renovated there were stains on the carpet and limescale on the shower glass. Facewashers both had black gunk on them and I had to ask for new ones. Poorly vacuumed. Listing says there is a laundry but there is NOT an onsite laundry - they send you to a laundromat a five minute walk down the road. Felt expensive considering the poor maintenance/cleanliness/staff availability/misleading listing information.

yang (10/5): -
Stu (8/5): Perfect for a short stopover! - Love little motels where you park out the front! Nostalgic! The new rooms or the deluxe rooms are fab. The older rooms are absolutely fine for a short stay but they do need to focus on a little refurb of those rooms soon

Jeremy (8/5): Simple, convenient, clean and tidy - Simple, clean and functional A bit dark around the buildings. Property not maned as you sign in and get keys from machine and return to machine. There is no one from motel there.

Lol haha would stay here again in an instant. Nothing , just well managed, well maintained and value for money , sorry can't fault the place ✋
Kira (7/5): -
AdrianWendy (9/5): Ideal for an o/nite stop . Close to town centre for food . - Ideal for an o/nite stay. Basic but adequate for our needs and the price is right! Bed v.comfortable! Close to traffic
Kevin (2/5): - It was clean No smart tv Bed needs replacing
F. Taher (7/5): Alright for a night. - Alright for a night. A little bit of renovation.
Lu (2/5): - The picture and the actual room is so different! I saw the insect on the bed when I was wake up. I won’t come back again!
Sarthak (7/5): Family Mt. Gambier trip. - Good budget motel. The shower head was very poor quality as we could either use it for extreme hot or extreme cold shower so none of us were happy with it. Rest other facilities were not so bad.
Sally (5/5): Run down, smelly and not clean. Needs a little TLC - Location Very run down, patched holes in the door, room stunk of smoke, had to clean faeces from the toilet. Messaged the property to be told they would check the rooms as we were out for the day, didn’t hear nothing back. Dogs barking in the rooms next to us and could hear flushing of toilets from adjoining rooms. Would not stay here again, poor even for a motel
Mohit (9/5): -
Finch (8/5): - It doesn't smell of glen20 The bathroom
Alan (7/5): -

Joseph (10/5): My adventure to mount gambier tower motor inn - The bed was extremely comfortable, the best sleep I had all week. There was plenty of secondary lighting so the room was well lit and not overpowering The tv worked and I was able to relax and watch some movies The bathroom was spacious compared to other motels, The room was clean and smelled good with good airflow, There was extra blanket available for the cold night, and the electric blanket started working immediately to make the temperature perfect to fall asleep. The outdoor patio area was very cool. The staff were still available on site when I returned to motel at about 10pm, its good to know they are there to help if needed. The air-conditioning had a bad smell to it when turned on, making it unusable , but it was a cold night so it didn't affect me. This smell quickly faded away due to good natural airflow of the room The fridge would intermittently become noisy for periods of time. It wasnt enough to annoy or wake me up but I was extremely tired so would probably sleep through anything. The shower water pressure would intermittently drop during shower, to just a trickle. The walls are quite thin, and you can hear next door bonking. Checkout at 10am felt a little early, but i suppose it could be worse. Ended up waiting at airport for 3 hours but it went fast.
David (7/5): - Clean comfortable and close to sttractions No WIFI although provided never able to find a connection therefore unable to plan days outings

MARIA (2/5): a very old and not welcoming place. - nothing!!! The rooms were very old. They need updating and renovating. The cupboards didn't have doors, but fabric curtains. There were no bedside table lamps, the rooms smell badly, the front doors were difficult to open. Would not return to the hotel, very disappointed!
Sheree (9/5): Clean, tidy and not noisy. We have been here before and will be back -
Dan (7/5): Good location and room for price - Great location - careful if you book a budget room they very very dated qe actually arrived and upgraded as a bit too dark and dingy for us - the .ore expensive room was good for price, friendly staff resolved quickly Outdoor cooking facility did not meet expectations
George (8/5): Price good we only stayed one nite😊 - Neat quiet comfortable clean Slightly out dated
Miguel Emeterio (7/5): - La ubicación La limpieza, encontramos una cucaracha y el suelo estaba pegajoso
stephen (6/5): - Rooms need some renovations as they are looking a bit old Towels could be newer
Marc (5/5): -
Jenny (3/5): It was a quick stop overnight was glad to leave. - Easy check in for a late arrival Room not like the photos in the ad dated
Deb and Stephen (4/5): A place to sleep - Location was great. Not enough powerpoints. Old interior. Blanket on bed very old. Cups and glasses were below standard, extremely small. No freezer in fridge No internet, no access information on password and no interaction from staff to help.
Andrea (7/5): It was ok but probably won’t go back I’m afraid - It was the only place we could get but it looked good in the photos Probably a bit noisy being in the highway and the bedding was not good , quilting didn’t stay in the quilt cover and ended up all scrunched up in the bottom of the cover
Jeanette (10/5): Good little place. - We stayed in the renovated room. The bed was pretty comfortable. Shower was good. It really had everything but a bath 😂. I would stay again. Was a drive to the main street. The windows were awning style we slept with the windows closed and air conditioning on and it wasn't warm, only because I am from Melbourne and am paranoid 😂. That is a me and Melbourne problem. But it's a good little place to stay.
Craig (8/5): Basic accommodation neat clean and good value rocking a bit of a retro vibe - The garden and bbq area were a nice touch
Shaw (8/5): - The price was perfect. For a late night check in, the process was easy and hassle free. The shower was nice. Location was great, easy to find.
