Gisborne Motel

The bed was very comfortable. We weren't there much as we went out each day for work. We loved that on the first night the heater was left on for us so the room was warm. For the price we were not expecting any 'frills' and this is a no frills motel. But it was clean, the price was great and the bed was comfortable so we were happy. We appreciated being able to heat our meals in the microwave. We were also provided with an extra bed for a minimal additional cost which was great. We did everything on line as we were keeping long hours. In spite of this Andrew still found the time to check in with us early in the morning on our first day to make sure everything was ok. A nice touch.

There wasn't anything we didn't like. For a basic, clean room with a comfortable bed, heating, microwave, TV, electric blankets and Wifi at a really reasonable price we felt like we made a good choice. This is hotel would suit tradies or people travelling for work who are not spending a lot of time in the room but who want a good nights sleep not too far from the center of town (or in our case, not too far from the next town of Woodend, where our work was based).

Quaint motel with microwave, kettle, little biscuits and tea and coffee with plenty of little UHF milk in the fridge. Air-conditioning was good and along with the electric blanket, this complemented room comfort. Gisborne has a generous amount a eating places, both sit-in and take-away; all with in two kilometres driving distance from the motel.

Esy check-in and check-out. Plenty of eating places, including supermarkets to buy food and return to the motel.

Really great attention to detail. Loved that the bed was re-made early each day. Plenty of clean towels too. Friendly team as always. Plenty of power points fro charging phone etc.

The shower in room 4 is faulty. It's very hard to get the mix - either scalding hot or cold.There appears to be a fault with the flow of water from perhaps both taps but certainly the hot seems to me either full on or off.

We were arriving late after a flight. Andrew texted through instructions on how to access our rooms and offered to put the heater on. It was very much appreciated. It was quick and easy to get to off the freeway. It took us about 30 mins drive from the airport and as we live North in the state it gave us a good head start for home in the morning.

Room was clean, comfortable and quiet with effective heating. Bowls and cutlery were provided, enabling us to have our own breakfast. Bathroom recently updated, clean. Manager friendly, gave us suggestions for eating in town. Ideally located 30 minutes drive from Melbourne airport.

Friendly staff - specially the Manager ( or Jack of all trades as his own words ) Room is right size and have facilities we need Wi-fi works well in our room 1 A. Easy access to Freeway Room heating works well Value for money

Hard mattress Dated decor ( A trip to KMart and under $100 a room can change the appeal a lot ) If we had an option to buy breakfast would have been better with young kids.

The rooms are clean and comfortable and the owner tries to help that you have a good stay. It has all that a Motel room needs and I go back often because I know that I will get a good nights rest there.

it was clean and comfortable. Perfect for a one night stop over. Owner Andrew went way over and above our expectations. Our flight was late which meant eating places in Gisborne were scarce. Andrew phoned and kindly offered to order us some dinner so we wouldn’t go hungry. He even had wine to go with our pizza!!

Nothing

Although the property is an older property is very well-maintained very comfortable. The owner was super helpful and I could not more highly recommend this motel. 

There was nothing I didn’t like about the property

it’s not a fancy new place, but I think good value for the money. quiet location. very spacious room. newish carpet in bed area. kitchenette with good facilities, microwave, kettle, cutlery etc. beds pillows towels all good. seemed clean.

receptionist not particularly helpful. cursed low-flow shower head. would have liked a hairdryer.
