Can't rate as we did not take the trip due to a medical emergency. The Motel was phoned (after the cut-off date for refunds) to let them know that we wouldn't be coming. I had hoped that if they were able to let the room, that we might be offered a credit note.The weekend was going to be very busy with a large National Trust event happening, so I am sure the room was re-let.
\Anyway, no such offer was made. We get to Bathurst quite frequently, and our usual B&B is no longer available, so we were looking to find a replacement. Guess who has missed out!

We had a rather large room with a kitchen (found someone's food in the microwave)
A really large bathroom. Breakfast was included.
Lovely location. Not far from town, close to lots of eateries.

Considering the motel is situated next to a major road, the room was very quiet.
Great shower & bathroom size, super hot water.
Comfortable beds.
Kind & helpful staff.

Apr 1, 2024
This motel needs ALOT of work. The rooms are extremely run down and need a very thorough clean (don’t look under the beds - YUCK!). Rooms were not serviced daily as you would expect from a motel. For $240 per night I expect a lot better. Very basic breakfast and not very hygienic (tubs of butter, jars of spreads for everyone to share/use). Facilities around the motel in bad state too. The road in is full of potholes. Kitchen facilities are very poor. Plug for sink didn’t fit therefore couldn’t wash up. The sponge supplied was used and dirty therefore assume the utensils were not cleaned properly. No hot water to the kitchen sink. A strong smell of gas within the kitchen area as we were located close to the gas hot water systems. No fluorescence tubes in any of the bed lights. Would not recommend this motel to anyone until they do a very big makeover.

Great location to stay overnight.
Really wonderful that the property made an effort to supply the free breakfast to customers (this is mind-blowing for Australia).
The only thing they can work on is Internet connection. For 2023 offering unreliable internet at maximum 1Mb per second that does not even let you watch any video is ridiculous.
