Good basic accommodation. We chose as storms predicted so wanted covering for vehicle. Friendly hosts. Plenty of food options walkable distance. Overnight stay as close to hospital.
It was clean and convenient to all places. The signage at the front was not so good, hard to find and drove by it a couple of times when going back to it…. A grey sign with grey wall..not so good.

Liked: Cleanliness
Clean and tidy rooms with basic cooking and bathroom facilities. Motel is close to fast food outlets and a brief drive to a shopping centre. Unfortunately, the motel was fully booked which meant lots of noise. Between that and an uncomfortable mattress, it was very difficult to sleep. A fair place to stay for a night.
Great budget motor inn. Got a free room upgrade. Bed was comfy & room was clean. Had fridge, microwave, toaster & kettle and everything we needed for our stay. Short walk to Hungry Jacks & Subway & guzman y gomez.

Place was clean and tidy and easy parking.
Only downside was the aircon wasn't working to heat room and it was a chilly 4 degrees. The good news was there were lots of blankets and we were warm enough.
Booked for an overnight stay prior to surgery.
Friendly hosts.
We had room #14. It was nicely appointed and had a spa bath.
Had a cute little bottle of fresh milk in fridge which sadly is becoming rare.
Close to several eateries...short walk.
We would stay again. Affordably priced.
Checkin was quick and easy. Room was clean and comfy. Close to a variety of food places. Room was on the road side wasn’t that noisy. Bed could do with a topper on it. Bed hard. Overall stay was good
All good. Clean, tidy room, comfortable.
Laundry facilities which i find very handy. Nice people.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location was good.
Service was terrible.
Reception was not open during regular hours.
Early checkin was flatly denied even after a long drive.
Fridge milk was opened.
Blow flies coming in through a broken air vent were a major pest.
It was a very clean and quiet room with a modern bathroom and good facilities. Great value for money! :-)

We stayed overnight in Toowoomba to break up a long drive. We arrived late and left early, so our stay was brief. The motel was suitable for what we needed though.
