    There was no breakfast unfortunately so would have liked a toaster in room as well as other crockery, as there was already a fridge, microwave, jug so having a toaster would be good.

    Layout of the family room for four people

    So close to Echo point. We had a short walk 7am to see the mist blanket it was so beautiful. That was in May.

    Bathroom was a touch small, could barely turnaround but was clean and modern.

    Amazing location so close to The Three Sisters and across the road from a much more expensive hotel. The exterior was a bit dated (I had to double check I was at the right location) but the room interior was modern and clean. Was very quiet, despite it being nearly full, I rarely heard any noise from the other rooms. Room was also well insulated, despite it being nearly winter, had to turn the heating off most nights as it got too warm even on the lowest setting (great problem to have). Really couldn’t fault it, especially for the price.

    The television in our room wouldn't work, as it couldn't connect to the WIFI. Our lovely receptionist Alex managed to find us another room (although we did love the room we were in, aside from the TV issue).

    Excellent location, really modern and comfortable room and lovely staff. Good heating, nice beds and an easy walk to Echo Point lookout and not far to RSL and cafes.

    We were there for four nights and found the hanging space to be inadequate. We would have liked a few plates and cutlery provided. Needed some instruction to use the tv.

    Good and ample parking, all one level, quiet. We appreciated the comfortable seating provided by the lounge.

    Staff were lovely, and the location is perfect for exploring the area. Cleaners do an amazing job considering the old style facilities, they would be difficult to keep clean. Everything was comfortable and great value for money.

    The ensuite was FREEZING. BUT its saying something if that is the only negative I could find

    Nothing not to like. Room was immaculate, had everything needed, even a fridge and microwave! Air conditioning was so good I had to put the heating on at one point. Everything was very comfortable Location was amazing, on a very handy bus route, 4 minute walk to echo point where I started my hike (very handy if you like a sunrise or sunset as don't have to get up super early with it being so close)

    It was noisy when other rooms put on their aircon. There was no water pressure which was sad because it was a beautiful bathroom.

    The location was awesome. It was much nicer and more comfortable than I would have picked from the outside and price. We could walk easily to 3 sisters and surrounds. The room was comfortable - small but not too small. I had an issue which management assisted with swiftly and with no complaint. Will definitely stay again.

    Nothing to complain about it was an enjoyable stay.

    Location, Location, Location. You don’t need a car because you are a 5 minute walk to Echo Point lookout and the tourist information centre and the 3 sisters lookout. Parking is free when you are staying there. Parking on the street is $4 per hour. Scenic World is a 5 minute drive and 20 minute walk away from the motel.
