Great location close to the heart of the Gympie city centre and dinning options. Courtney bus pick ups outside front ,very nice clean rooms and comfortable bed. Tea and coffee making factory in the rooms with a fridge, toaster and Kettle. Breakfast room service another good option, Only down side was poor water pressure in the shower.

Convenient location, relatively quiet. Check-in was quick and easy. Bed reasonable comfortable. Some furnishings needed maintenance. Towels and pillows thin. Shower poor, with low pressure and hot and cold tap handles mislabelled.

Manager very kindly offered us a refund when there was an unfortunate but unforseeable issue with the huge and amazing looking spa bath requiring minor maintenance so it could be used. Room was otherwise clean, tidy, spacious, comfortable and private. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. The breakfast menu sounded great.

Good sized queen room, bathroom with shower and toilet, no bath. Tv works fine, plenty of space. Overall, very good for a 3-star motel. Pool was the best part.

6/10 Good

I thought the room was good but i go to sleep early and start work early so need a good sleep. I was woken at 9.30 pm by young children running up and down the carpark screaming their heads off. I wanted to go out and tell them to shut up but it looked like all the adults thought it was fun so didnt want to get into a argument as they seemed drunk.
