It was cold, dark and the rain had started to fall. We were late arriving but that was no trouble. The staff were friendly and hospitable and suggested the restaurant within the complex for our dinner. Brilliant ! Some delicious options there. The room was basic but was clean had everything we needed. A mattress topper wouldn’t go astray. Tea and coffee and bikkies appreciated ! Above all fantastic service from the team.

Nice big rooms with undercover parking. Rooms a little dated but not an issue. Carpet marked and could do with replacing, would make a huge differece to overall appearance.

Very friendly Managers who started at Christmas. Surprised at how quiet the room was as the Motel is accessed by a side road next to the highway. Our room was located at the rear of the site and we did not have any traffic noise. There is a beautiful park directly opposite. We will definitely stay there again.

The staff were so amazingly accomodating . I will always stay here whenever we're in Gympie from now on. The best accomodation I've been in on a work trip for a long time.
