10/10 Exceptional

Best motel we've stayed in for a while

We checked in over Easter weekend ,reception was closed but there was a number to call so we checked in by phone. Everything was great and really nice

10/10 Exceptional

We will be back

The good service from reception, room quality and walking distance to town, shops and botanic garden area, away enough from main road and an on site restaurant mean this place has everything for a great stay!

Air con was a bit noisy. Overall a pleasant stay

Carol, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good service. Ok for overnight stay

Modern but needs some maintenance. A bit noisy due to its proximity to the main road. Service was excellent.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Well Insulated

Modern motel with large room. Close to highways and rail, but a brick wall noise barrier ensures comfort in the room.

8/10 Very good

Was ok

8/10 Very good

Oasis in Emerlad

Had a great stay and value for money. Rooms were very neat and tidy with modern feel. Restaurant food, fantastic and not overpriced. The only downside was the toilet wasnt cleaned properly on the outside and if your staying in the rooms adjacent the main road there is a bit of traffic noise though this drops off as the night progresses and recomences in about 5am. Great place will stay again. over

6/10 Good

Was allowed to book in on Christmas Day Unfortunately the pool bathroom was very messy and not clean

6/10 Good

Fair place to stay, needs some extra work.

We had too clean our units upon entry...woke up to no hot water, but the staff provided up to date information on what was happening...plus they opened a room for us to shower in two hours later. The sofa bed had springs coming out of the mattress, glad we didn't pay full price.

2/10 Poor

Terrible - under new management

Previously stayed approx. 6 times and always been impressed. Rooms are now filthy, toilets looks as though hadn't been cleaned properly in weeks, I had to change rooms it was so bad, it just feels dirty. Won't be back.

Easy check-in process, comfortable beds and I like the amenities in the motel style kitchen.

Was a nice place for a quick trip
Sean, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

None of the televisions were working in any room. They knew this before people arrived but there was no reduction in price. Very unhappy as we couldn't get any picture using the internet either.
Margaret, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Busy area Noisy with trains going past
Becca, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was clean enough but shower needed some exit mould. Light flickering. Fixed on request by friendly guy. Dirty dishes from someone’s room service left outside room for 36 hours. Entrance flooded during a storm. Person on front desk average, not overly friendly. Overall, adequate but will try to find something better next time.
Amanda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff were very helpful
Brendan, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Incredibly disappointed. Spa had faeces floating in it. The bathroom was unclean. The window sill had the word “yuck” written in the dust from a previous occupant.
