Overall Ratings & Reviews Lodge Outback Motel

The reception was unwelcoming

Hotel room was very clean, but old. Great for the price and had everything that you needing. Loved the biscuits.

Receptionist was rude

This place is due for a long overdue upgrade. Light fittings either didnt work or had globes missing, the water damage to the bathroom door skirting, lack of advertised TV channels , light switches in weirdest places for bathroom ( in the coffee making area). It was mainly clean, but would not recommended for a longer stay.

Never arrived due to work delays but it looked good

We liked the area and the look of the Lodge. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice and hot. The rooms just need a good clean and a spruce up. All the curtains need a backing for the light and heat.. The fan and Air-conditioner need a service as both very noisy. Undercover car parking would be great too.

Good facilities

Our upgraded room was satisfactory, but aged. The bed was very soft and difficult to sleep in as it sagged in the middle. The bathroom was quite small. Outside lighting shone through a window above the door. This had to be blocked prior to going to bed. The window curtain barely covered the window at night, requiring pegs to hold it shut.

For the price - it’s comfortable and at $100 per night with a great location it’s an under tapped property. And I would recommend it on these things alone. But needs a good clean and a renovation as the unit was old and dated.

Disappointed to book here. I wasn’t expecting much but the greeting was unfriendly. Found out later breakfast packs were available then to find that the office was closed. Why wasn’t this mentioned at check in. Simple things that can make people come back. Sorry, I won’t be coming back here

Unfortunately the owner of this motel is not interested in fixing broken tiles in the bathroom area, fix the door lock as needed. It is out of the hands of the managers as we were told the owner will not respond to these much needed jobs

good location,,clean, nice pool, grand old house attached which looks so good dislike is being asked for credit card details, when the room has been prepaid. If a Hotel or motel doesn't trust its guests in case they break a plate or similar, why should the guest trust the hotel with his credit cards details. sorry, but I loved the place but this policy prevents a return or recommendation to others.

Bland reception Dated Decor Tiny bathroom Poorly cleaned older style shower recess. Shower head broken, would not stay in place making it difficult to shower (NB, -It was replaced the next day ) black mould inbetween grout, yellow scum on white tiles made it feel unclean & uninviting. No bathroom light only heater ceiling light- making tiny room very hot Vanity unit was seperate thus inconvenient for accessing toiletries Kitchenette needs a coat of paint -chipped shelves Toaster not cleaned Ceiling fan has black dirty accumulated dirt overhanging the rotary Felt the whole room needs a thorough cleansing from ceiling to walls & floors The bed appeared to have clean linen & the mattress was on the softer side of comfortable

Minor maintenance issues were promptly fixed when management was made aware. Service was excellent and generous.

The bathroom hadn’t been cleaned in a while, dust, hair and grasshopper in the bathroom. Bed was comfortable though. The staff need to brush up on their customer service. Was only provided one key. When ringing site manager at 10 pm I was let in and yelled at. Very unprofessional and rude.

Reception was neither friendly nor interested. Room was badly dated, bedside lamp didn’t work as the plug didn’t fit the outdated power point, other fixtures had burnt out globes. Shower was cramped, had no pressure and the soap dish interferes with standing under the drips. Room was generally clean, bed was comfortable, room rate very good.

Overnight stay. Reception was a bit cranky on check-in, but was friendlier when we checked out

Room was nothing like the internet photos. Very rundown and needs a lot of work to bring up to scratch

Easy to find and get to, nice and quiet

Easy walking distance
