we found this on What If, don't do it, its not worthy of the 4 star they display, the stair case is filthy, the rooms are very very basic, TV, iron, toaster, kettle, thats about all..................................................................................................................................

The SUMMIT MOTEL was the worst experience of my life. On the website it say check in is at Midday onwards. I arrived at midday and was told it was a 2pm. The reception person pointed to a sign on the desk and told me to come back at 2pm to check in. As i'd arrived from Sydney, a sign on their reception desk advising the 2pm check in wasn't very helpful.
IT GOT WORSE!!
I then went and set up our site at the V8's and following this went to the collect a staff member from the airport before having dinner and watcing the State of Origin. At 930pm i returned to the motel to check in. A sign on the door advised reception closed at 9pm and to call the adjacent phone to get access to the room. From 930 to 10pm i tried calling the phone that was engaged consistently, speaking with guests who couldn't help, calling the reception that was shut and naturally no-one answered and calling other Motel's located in Queensland. All avenues failed. At 10pm i retired to sleep in the car reluctantly.
CAN YOU BELIEVE!!
Following a very long cold night, finally 8am arrived. I walked in to ask what happened the night prior (naturally i looked dreadful and was tired and upset). Instead for any reasoning i was told i was lying and that the phone worked fine and the whole situation was my fault..... that i didn't know how to use he phone.
On hearing the whole situation was my fault, that i was lying and that i should 'p*ss off' the conversation escalated.
Finally i walked out worse of advising them i'd be writing some harsh emails.
i'll leave it to you to decide if you're interested in staying at this venue!!

The Summit Motel is built on two stories around a car park. Upstairs has a communal balcony with a wider end that serves as bit of a terrace.

Unfortunately due to this design most of the upstairs room open directly onto this terrace. And then it is just luck if you have a quiet night or if the traveling work crew turn up and plough into the beers from 5pm onwards right outside your door. I had a bit of both. The block build of the place doesn't keep any noise out, i could hear people shower, talk etc and the drinkers outside topped it off.

The room itself was ok, not bad for the money on a good, quiet night, not so good on a noisy night. Probably wouldn't stay again just because for me peace and quiet is essential.

This motel's management has no interest in building relationships with business travelers. When I called to cancel my accommodation after missing my flight I was told I will be charged. No offer of let's go halves in room rate or so sorry to hear that but we do have to charge you how about next time we will be sure to give you a extra special price. We all have choices where to book this won't be one of mine in the future
