Guest Reviews
- Kerry (1/5): Disgusting! - Leaving the property. Horrible smell in room
Carpet near bed was the issue, like someone had vomited, carpet was damp. We couldn't walk on the floor coverings without thongs/socks on. Cockroaches all through the bathroom and our linen. The next morning, we got ready to get out of there, and we had cockroaches in our clean clothes. I sent the property a message regarding the smell, I was offered free snacks being 2 packets of chips and a muesli bar. I followed up with another email regarding the situation with the cockroaches and so far have been ignored. Disgusting property, comparing this property to other properties of the same price in Casino, this one is a waste of money!
- Greg (8/5): -
- Kerrie (9/5): I have stayed here in the past and will stay here agin.; - This is an older motel but for what you pay today is very reasonable. Nothing flash but comfortable. The bed and pillows were lovely, the linen crisk and clean, lots of hot water. Lovely host. There was traffic noise from the road but this dropped off after 10pm.
- John (10/5): Exceeded expectations - Everything
- Carol (9/5): Would stay again if passing through. - Updated, clean and everything you would expect.
Cleaner forgot to leave towels on the bed but when we called they were very opologetic and rushed to bring us some. Very hard to fill the kettle under the low hand basin tap.
- Jo (10/5): - MANDY WAS VERY HELPFUL AT CHECKIN AND CHECK OUT. Everthing was fine

- Gillian (8/5): - Friendly staff
Close to hotels for dinner
Easy walk to train station -
- Elizabeth (4/5): BYO comfort - Pleasant staff who checked in on us regarding arrival time. Very noisy. Not just passing highway noise (as expected) but trucks just outside idling engines all night while drivers grabbed fast food across the road. At least provide ear plugs please!
Not well equipped. Toaster and microwave provided (as advertised) but why no plates or cutlery to go with it? All the other places we stayed provided this.
Sadly this was the most expensive but least satisfactory accommodation we had on our trip. A few changes would make all the difference.

- theo (8/5): -

- Cecil (9/5): Great - Clean and quiet Nothing
- Keith (6/5): Basic - No breakfast of any kind provided or offered, not even basket with light breakfast cereal or bread/butter/jam/vegemite satchels even though toaster provided. Excellent location to town centre. Tiniest shower ever encountered in previous motel accommodation stayed in, certainly wouldn't be suitable for person with slightest of disability, king room but tiny overall.
- Paul (8/5): good value - location
- Tracy (7/5): -
- annie (7/5): - A 800m de la gare, mais terrain plat et peu de circulation.
Lits confortables, douche tb. Il suffit de traverser la rue pour trouver deux grandes enseignes du fast food, mail quelle rue! Pas de passage pour pietons et enormement de circulation.
Bcp de bruits due a cette route, bien perceptible dans la chambre.

- B&C Consultancy (10/5): comfortable and welcome stay - Friendly and helpful staff, clean and tidy room which was close to everything needed Nil
- julie (10/5): - It is exactly what you would expect a country hotel. Extremely clean and very well appointed.
Only negative is it’s probably a little over furnished. In the unit we were staying in there was a table and chairs that was not really needed and encroached on the walk ability around the bed. I will just get rid of them. There is already two chairs under a bench with perfectly suit for eating breakfast which is about all you’re going to want you’re not going to go for a full dining experience since there’s not a great deal of cooking facilities in the room.
The hotel is a very easy walk to everything in the main street and even though it is on the main thoroughfare through casino it was quiet. If you’re into that sort of thing there is all of the takeaway’s straight across the road McDonald’s KFC etc. Otherwise there are two pubs in town. We ate lunch at one and dinner at the other and both were to a very high standard.
- Rick Lennox (9/5): - Friendly staff, had all the lowdown on where to eat and drink
- Gemini77r (7/5): Good value, rooms
exactly as advertised - The location to the town centre was great, good value for money & quite comfortable Traffic was a bit noisy, but that's not surprising as it's located on the B91 Highway
- Cheryl (9/5): Highly recommend it. Town centre just around the corner - Great location. Comfy beds ,clean ,had everything we needed
- Debbie (8/5): - Very handy to town nice and clean a little dated but still worked well for us. Staff very excellent
- Famey (10/5): - Comfortable bed and great staff

- Lyle (8/5): Very good - Central to fast food and excellent pub Bistro meal.
- Errol (10/5): - Clean and very comfortable
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Brian (8/5): Very good -
- Carol (3/5): Unfortunately, we won’t stay there again, which is a shame because the acting manager at the time , was very pleasant - Nice welcome, comfortable beds, hot water No cover on duvet. Patterned bedspreads not inviting. Couldn’t switch off air con with remote, noisy fridge, bright light from tv screen when switched off. Rather small and dark room

- Suzi19 (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent room, comfortable and clean. Nothing
- Ross (8/5): Very good -
- Bradbury (9/5): Above expectations - Management are exceptional and really look after everyone's needs.
Security cameras are located all around the property.
Central to most areas of Casino. Parking is an issue for larger vehicles.
- Cheryle (9/5): Superb - Easy walking distance to the local RSM club and shops.
- Murray (9/5): Just ideal - Nice and quiet. Central location was handy to everything. Room was exceptionally clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. Nothing to add as the motel met expectations.
- Glenda (6/5): Poor value - Pleasant managers(new) plenty seating Several mirrors Tight parking, overwhelming smell of electric room “ freshener” pulled it out
Poor value compared with similar sized town with better facilities
- Stephen (5/5): Great location but staff pretty ordinary and value for money is not good - Location Staff
- Roy (9/5): Superb -
- Dakota (6/5): Pleasant -
- Noni (9/5): Superb -
- Simon (8/5): Very good -
- Hillary (4/5): Smelly business trip - Room smelled terrible. Was a musty smokers smell. Note to the manager- The plug in air freshener won’t get rid of that smell. All my clothes in my luggage smelled like that room. The bath towels also smelled horrible once they got wet. Will never stay here again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): -
good motel but a couple of things could be improved.
Lighting in the room is very harsh and could be softer.
Only one small bedside table shared between beds. Colour of the bricks very dark and depressing
- David (10/5): Relaxing, comfortable, welcoming. - Position, decor, staff All good
- Rachel (10/5): Excellent highly recommended - It was clean modern and beautifully presented and nothing was a hassle the hosts were very accommodating Nothing
- Neil (4/5): Disappointing - Location, you could walk to restaurants Very small room, tv not working, shower screen would not close properly. Charged over $200 for a budget motel. Will never stay here again.
- Paul (7/5): Good -
- Margaret (9/5): Superb -
- Christine (9/5): Superb -
- David (9/5): Good place to stay - Check-in was smooth. Very helpful staff. Clean room
- Justin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Keith (6/5): Pleasant - Location walking distance to pub and fast food. Smallest, tightest car parking. Smallest room we used in a long time. 2 interior lights very bright but bedside lights very dim. Expensive in comparison to others on our trip.
- Paul (9/5): No problems - Location good For that kind of motel it was excellent
- Helen (7/5): okay - Clean and comfortable The fact that I booked a FAMILY room 3 months in advance and someone decided that as there were only 3 adults we should bunk together in a twin room without even a phone call to me or offer of a refund. It is NEVER okay to presume.
- Elisa (9/5): Superb - Convenient clean and friendly staff
- Pauline (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zachary (9/5): Superb -
- Emma (10/5): Clean, warm and super friendly and helpful staff - Room was very clean, staff were super friendly. We called late and asked for a last minute family room and to check in late at night. They were super helpful and even turned on the heater before we got there so the room was nice and warm. Nothing
- Pauline (10/5): Easy to reach from station offered a very comfortable stay after long train journey - Location to railway station.
Comfortable bed.
The owners were very obliging. Totally happy with everything
- Wendy (6/5): Very clean facilities, friendly staff. Room quite small, lots of road noise, small carparking - Comfortable beds Noisy location on the main road
- Haley (10/5): Central location, very clean & comfortable - Very clean & tidy, extremely comfortable beds, directly across from McDonalds/KFC, everything you’d expect in the room- toaster, kettle, hairdryer, even makeup remover towels!
- Carl (8/5): Great little motel for an overnight stay on a long road trip. Close to everything you need, comfortable beds & frien - Central location, close to shops & places to eat. Road noise, as the property is on the main road.
But nothing too extreme.
- Tracey (5/5): Passable - I booked two rooms approx 5 months ago and about 3 weeks before we were to arrive, I received a phone call to say that there was only one room available but we could all share the one room. I then saw that there were still rooms available on booking.com and my friend booked a room in her name. This seems to be a very common occurrence on booking.com as it happened with every booking that I had on our trip.
- Kell (9/5): Superb - Staff were great and so helpful
- Bruce (8/5): Very good -
- Patricia (4/5): - No one in reception for check in on saturday, rang number on door straight to message bank tried several times, lucky my daughter was also staying there, so she rang and was answered.
Was clean but was very noisy traffic.And very bright as light stayed on all night right near our window.
- Annette (8/5): Very good -
