- Jeffrey (1/5): Too noisy. - Pub side was good. Food was good Room was noisy from the drunks fighting and car horns into the early hours of the morning.
- Terry (4/5): Disappointing. - We had no problem with the motel and its facilities. The meal was good.
The huge drawback was the noise from partying individuals all night in the outside area , this did not cease till 4 am.
When you are travelling all day and really need rest this was unacceptable.
For this reason we would not stay again nor recommend to friends.
- Sai (9/5): - Hospitality Washrooms
- Robyn (8/5): Good stay that was very conveniently located. - Friendly staff, great location to access all that we needed to and Woolworths across the road, good bottle shop , meals available at pub , ground floor so easily accessible for someone with limited mobility, car park right outside unit We found the beds a little soft, and not that comfy, but okay . No freezer in the fridge .

- Lisa (5/5): Had a reasonable sleep. Meal was good but bar man messed up both our drink and meal orders. Manager was responsive to ou - Handy having the restaurant on site. Bed was fairly comfortable. Good shower. Our room was very dated for the price and had some disrepair. Peeling paint, missing tiles, water damage. Room smelt damp and musty.

They had a large party they were catering for, but our meals were provided within normal time, and the meals were fantastic.

The bottle shop clanging their bottles right out side my bedroom window Being working up by inconsiderate staff members, it was dirty and over priced.
$36 for a Caesar salad with extra prawn and calamari, 3 prawns, and 3 pieces of calamari, stupidly over priced

The menu was good and the meal excellent. In desperate need of sprucing up a little. The room was pretty ordinary, it needed a good scrub, filler, new bathroom fittings and a coat of paint. We were told that smoking outside the room was not allowed but the people next door had a full ashtray and we could smell the cigarette smoke which managed to seep into our room. Yuk!!

- Cliff (8/5): Tandara Motel 23/12/25 - The location was great, right on the Highway, a small amount of highway noise. Bed was super soft and having the hotel 15m away was fantastic.

Lovely clean room, well appointed with microwave and lovely decor. Being beside the pub made the room very noisy, lots of loud drunk patrons later in the night, might pay to put disposable earplugs in the rooms for guests.
