Guest Reviews
- Deborah (8/5): -
- Greg (7/5): Location is convenient, rooms are spacious, a well-priced option for the travelling worker. - The room is larger than most. The Shower water pressure, temperature and flow was brilliant.
Everything was there and mostly worked. The motel is suffering from age, yeah that 'ol Chesnutt. Bathroom fittings and mirrors scared by years of the overuse of harsh cleaning chemicals.
The door seals were non-existent so noise from the adjacent main road could enter.
The room a/c wasn't making any warm air, so I inspected the air filters. They were totally clogged. Gave them a wash, but it turned out the a/c doesn't have reverse cycle for heating. Nights were getting down to 12 C.
- Ellen (8/5): -
- Ozzie (7/5): Other than location, it was all goo - Clean, friendly staff and great food It was falsely advertised as in Airlie beach but it was in Cannonvale
- Scott (9/5): Comfortable, clean, quiet. Very happy - Clean, comfortable, quiet. Nil
- Raquel (9/5): -
- Lauren (2/5): Average. Wouldn’t stay again. - Location was good. Easy access via car into Airlie The bathroom was extremely run down, as was rest of room. Rust throughout, stained shower, peeling paint everywhere. The room faced into the bar area and so the noise sounds like it’s from within your room. Super noisy and made it hard to sleep.
- Hannah (8/5): Comfortable stay - Comfortable stay and spacious room. The shower pressure was incredible! Rooms are older but well maintained. Room backs onto the pub and there was very little noise experienced. Great location just a few minutes outside of the main hub of Airlie.
- Anna (10/5): Great place to stay - We stayed here a few nights, and then came back to stay again. Really nice rooms, great value for money, comfy beds, flatscreen tv, great location, bus stop across the road to get to Airlie beach, check in anytime. Parking undercover just outside the room. Water, tea, coffee, biscuits, supplied
- Jeffrey (9/5): -
- Nair (10/5): -
- David (10/5): Not the first time we have stayed and is always a great place to stay - Close to where we needed to be and fairly priced considering school holidays and the unit was very neat and tidy Sometimes the traffic trying to get in and out of the property was a little hectic
- Caroline (10/5): -
- ShannonShaw (9/5): - The rooms are simple, easy to get into and large in terms of walking room. Loved that the aircon was on for us already when we arrived. Thankyou to the receptionist, she was absolutely lovely :)
The water pressure in the shower is amazing and you definitely don't need to worry about the hot water because that is definitely HOT! Which was great for us!
Overall, a great stay :) The bathrooms could go with some TLC, rust in areas etc.
The beds have seen better days. They felt comfortable but definitely have been well used and felt like you sunk, like some springs were broken
- GENELYN (10/5): Always a great stay. -
- Michael (8/5): Ok for a short stay. - Good location. Great courtsey bus. Meals and drinks were great. Smokings out the back when we start on that floor. We were in Room 3. Kettle hard to fill under tap Maybe have a jug in the room. No toaster allowed Interesting indeed

- Nelley (5/5): -

The only complaint would be that the conditioner and shower gel containers in the shower were empty. Apart from that the accomodation was way above par excellence.
