sometimes its not so much about the location (although it was nice), the backdrop (the mountains were v nice), the view (the red brick building was ok,,,), the property (I believe although did not actually see the pool / jacuzzi), the room (it was pink?), the bed (it was a bit springy), the mini bar (it was empty), the tele...

All i expect is for a place to be clean nothing more but this motel fails badly. When you find dirty sheets you are put off. I just have one word do not waste your time and money. More

This may be the only motel in Thirroul, but don't stay here. It is run down, in urgent need of repair and very, very overpriced. The railings on the upstairs balcony were not attached to the wall - very dangerous. There is no hair dryer, no iron, no ironing board, no drinking glasses (water or wine), no remote for the... More

It was convenient for us as we were visiting people in the area and were only staying for one night. The entrance/exit to the motel is on a sweeping bend on a busy road so getting in and out is a bit of a hazard. It looks as though the rooms are gradually being painted and refurbished. Our room was... More

The motel looked dodgy, but being the only one around(that we could find) had no choice but to stay. The tariff was $125.50, to which my husband hopefully asked"does that include breakfast?"Of course not. The room seemed clean, and relatively quiet but the facilities were woeful- old TV with dodgy reception, bathroom in bad repair, wobbly table etc. All we... More

This motel is the only motel on road from stanwell tops to outskirts of Wollongong. No money has been spent on maintaining property, rooms are dirty, carpet lifting, filthy, bed shocking, Paid $115 for double room - worth $70 at best. Staff helpful enough and location good (if on main road), but still not worth staying here. More

This is a fairly old, run down motel on the main road in Thirroull, and is noisy particularly if you are not lucky enough to have a room at the back of the place.Beware also,as only a few rooms have air conditioning, but still beware if yours is one of them. Two rooms away my friends did have an A/C... More

After reading awful reviews we were a bit worried but didnt have any choice as we needed to stay in the location & didnt have time to look around. Walking distance to shops, large rooms, good shower, comfy bed, have stayed in a lot worse so no major complaints, it is what it is. For us this was a room... More
