    Comfy bed, easy access from car, good room size, friendly staff,

    Excellent. Bed was best so far, access is easy. We always choose to stay here when in Toowoomba. Third time now and always been excellent. On the negative and I don't know if this could be improved but the shower taps are really difficult to maintain constant temperature of water and with a disabled hand difficult to turn and they're in an awkward spot where you have to be under the shower to turn the tap on. Our only minor issue. Otherwise comfortable, practical and friendly.

    Booking problems”

    I booked this motel over the internet, it showed a slightly old fashioned room with a cooker, just what I wanted, so I booked it. When I arrived (with my dinner in the Esky) I discovered that the cooking facilities were in fact a kettle and a toaster. Ever tried making albondigas (Spanish meatballs in sauce) and tallarines (a kind of pasta) in a kettle or a toaster? When I questioned this the management confirmed they did have rooms with cookers but had rented them to a motorcycle club. Booking by phone is the answer, you get more accurate information.
