The location is amazing! Perfect to move around if you dont have a car but also if you do the carpark is very good and the car sleep safe, excellent place to hace holidays. The room was very big for us 3 the bed very comfortable, the toilet+shower very big too, is not modern but we didnt look for that, we just wanted to have holidays in the beach and this was the perfect location and place to do it. We went for walks everyday to the beach and dinner out is just out the door all the places for eat.

Didnt have microwave thats all, being with a baby i would of like a microwave but the rest was all perfect.

Ideal location for my weekend in Wollongong. Short walk to beach & Entertainment Centre, shops & cafes right outside the front door on Crown St. Off-street parking very convenient for that part of town. Not flash, but functional and the staff were very friendly.

Rooms aren’t exactly 5-star but you know that going in. Crumbs under toaster in cupboard wasn’t a good look, stains on carpet, and the decor, fittings, switches & power points are all getting close to needing replacing or a refurb but it’s generally clean and a great place to stay.

Wollongong is a lovely old town. The room was dated, which I also love! I'm a child of the 1970s. The staff are so very polite, Kiera was more than helpful. We had booked into a room upstairs but when I asked about that at reception, she immediately knew I would prefer to be on the ground level, and beating me to it, she said 'Would you prefer to be downstairs". That's brilliant! I think she read my mind! Myself and the GF LOVED the place, it was everything we imagined and more.

The fact that we could not stay longer. People have jobs, and we're people! I feel like this questionnaire is prompting me to say bad things, but I don't have any bad things to say!

The Downtown Motel is an older 1980s style motel and is clean and comfortable with clean linen in the bathroom. there are limited facilities but a kettle and toaster and small fridge were in the room. The receptionist was friendly and accommodating and the whole experience was made easier by her assistance. Value for money.

Finding the entrance on the first visit can be difficult given the location in what is now a one way street.

Location was great in the middle of the city close to all the major places and the beach. Room is complete with all the requirements. Bed was big enough for 3 of us and comfortable as well. Staff was very friendly and helpful and always ready to help.

Wifi was bit slow and disconnecting most of the time. Noice of the music bar near by was bit too much.

The shower was amazing. Clean and tidy. Check-in was heaps easy, and the staff was friendly. Booking communication was excellent. It was a perfect stay that had an aircon, a bed and a shower, in walking distance to the beach, shops and hospital. Everything I needed.

There is nothing that I didn't like, but a kitchenette with microwave access would be great.

Excelent location. Close to restaurants and cafes. Perfect place for a night or a couple of nights. Clean and confortable. Good to have tea and even biscuits, a nice gesture. Good beds and good quality linnen

All was good for a motel standard. Maybe the lights could be warmer, the room was kind of dark. ...And the paintings on the walls, coul be better quality... They look a bit unproffesional.. just an upgrade

The rooms were fairly old but the bed was very comfy and good night sleep had. The toilet and shower were very clean and good shower. Being very close to shops,hotels and restaurants ,also it was very quiet .and very secure parking ,if we need accommodation again we will be staying there.

Can't really complain ,maybe only thing the air conditioner heating could do with an upgrade

This is the second time I’ve stayed here. The rooms are basic, which reflects the very reasonable rates, but clean. The enclosed car park is a plus. Convenient to shops, restaurants and public transport. An added bonus is the very friendly and helpful staff

I stayed for 4 nights while my husband was in hospital and would have appreciated a more comfortable chair than the plastic ones provided

Location, right in the heart of city and not far from where we needed to get to. Liked how we were forewarned before arriving regarding our booking i.e. we were informed we had booked somewhere where noise maybe an issue and was given advance notice to change. Liked how extra blankets provided and all other basic amenities were in the room. Liked how we were running late due to traffic and was contacted by venue to see how far and then waiting around after hours to check us in.
