Colonial Inn Motel

good location

Unit was big. Great facilities and close to shops.

Nothing.

Location

Washing the dishes in the bathroom, not as clean as I'd expect

Location was great with Bus stop just across the street. Pub just 200mtrs away for meals as well. Pizzas places close. Nice Cafe for breakfast opposite Pub.

Motel a bit "Tired".

Affordable

Noise coming from the 2nd floor

Everything as service offer and we got perfect match.

Location

No, dish washer, shampoo,

Absolutely perfect location and the most accommodating staff. They went out of their way to make everything perfect. Great attention to keeping everything clean .

Excellent location for what I required. The premises overall needs a good deep clean and some paint. The staff were friendly but they can only do so much .

Cleanliness

Location was great, room was clean, nice towels in the bathroom

Beds pretty uncomfortable, shower was terrible, poor water pressure and stream

Lovely hosts, great location

Pillows were flat and the TV didn’t work

Was fine for what we needed

The water pressure was pretty low

Great location

It would have been nice if a small bottle of milk could be supplied

Price, location

N/a

Location is fab close to shops and bus stops. Very private and quiet rooms.

Location excellent Room older but fresh

car parking tight spaces

Price is good. It has the basics. Central location. Shops nearby. Daily room service. Washing machine and dryer for small fee. Electric blankets and good but double bed. No exhaust fan in kitchen or bathroom worried about causing smoke alarm issues.

Noisy location with busy road and much traffic. Schools nearby causing traffic congestion morning and afternoon. Lighting poor. Kitchen facilities: minimal, outdated. Mismatched and only to of each glasses, mismatched cutlery and crockery.

value for money

Could use some updating but for size and value was quite acceptable

Close to CBD

No PowerPoint in bathroom No detergent in kitchen

Colonial Inn is located well and reasonably priced.

The pillows were flat. It was a step up to the shower.

Close to amenities, good location, host was nice

Heat pump didn't work room was freezing, no milk provided for morning cuppa tea

Very tired looking

Close to town, easy to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Decent price for a night away.

Room didn't really look like the pictures. No heating in room apart from a noisy old dusty heater. Electric blanket didn't work either.

Close to venture we were attending

Double glazing would have helped with road noise, but I've heard worse before

Bed

Heater, shower, hot water tap in kitchen

Great location and handy to amenities

Quite tacky and run down . Bathroom was not a very good standard . Shower was very rusty . Needs an upgrade .

Location

Parking was abit tight for large vehicles

Clean and spacious property

Tight parking spaces in the property

Location & friendly staff. My car got a flat tyre in the car park & the staff were very helpful & kind

The facilities are old but that is fine & they are slowly doing bits to improve

We stayed in room 4 the first night, it was an absolute nightmare. Microwave - even the lady looking after motel could not make it work and had to get one from another room. Our door lock kept jamming so we couldnt lock the door. Nearly every electrical plug on the walls was dodgy and loose, TV didnt work on freeview the shower rail that holds the shower head etc, was nearly falling off wall Wardrobe door was coming off hinges, Toilet was a shocker, if you went it wouldnt flush away. If you sat it started flushing as lid of toilet hits the flush button. Toilet is about the height for a 5 year old. Cutlery etc in room was pretty bad, mismatched mess. dishes had to be washed in bathroom sink Seen better pillows on the dogs bed, so thin and awful Windows dont close properly, handles coming loose. all in all this place was dirty, dated and if we could have got hold of booking.com to get a refund we would have. There was nothing good about this motel and when our concerns were passed on to owner who was away, we were told this is a cheaper motel.- and that we needed to give 48 hours to cancel. Granted but still needs to be safe and clean and usable Lady looking after the place gave us another room, which was bigger, toilet worked and she swapped the microwave again. but still pretty bad.

The location of the property is great. The price was very reasonable

The check in experience got things off to a bad start. They couldn't find our reservation and eventually found it after providing the booking reference number from Booking.com. This took 10 to 15 minuets. Our room was located on the 2nd floor and it is extremely outdated and in need of some maintenance. There was no milk provided to make a coffee with but I was more concerned with the dodgy electrical sockets that couldn't hold chargers, as they just kept falling out. At night it sounds as if the main road is running through the middle of the room! The traffic noise was just so loud. The parking facilities are extremely crammed making it difficult to get in and out and it is very difficult to find the place at night time due to no signage that is lit up. The shower is a treat having to step up about a foot to get into the shower with no handrails for assistance and the water pressure is terrible. Glad it was only for a night but we were seriously considering about changing accommodation.

Very helpful staff. Great value for money

Not to kean on the big step down from the shower. A handrail to hold on to would be a great addition

Reasonably priced

Noisy.. sirens throughout the night and loud guests. The shower cubicle I thought bordered on dangerous. Quite a high step up into the cubicle of which the base was slippery steel. No handrail or anything to support. Getting out even worse! Big step , over edge to reach floor. Nothing to hold on to.Glass door pivoted and took up a good quarter of the open space to get out. Really poorly designed and definitely dangerous for the elderly or anyone unsteady on their feet. Front car park very tight when full. It’s recommended for smaller cars but this was not enforced by management and larger suv’s/4wds, made it near impossible to get my car out. Front roadside illuminated sign was not working which made it difficult to find at night in a row of motels on a very busy road.

Was in walking distance of CBD.

Place getting tired. Banged your head on cupboard above the sink. Needed a black out curtain. Lights from cars coming out of street opposite shone into room. No towel rails in bathroom. Ño rail in kitchen for tea towel.

Location

Tv reception

Es war ganz nett. Alles vorhanden was man wirklich braucht.

Renovierung fällig: Dichtungen müssen ausgetauscht werden, Küche und Bad total renoviert werden. Sonst war der Schlafen Bereich ganz komfortabel und groß.

客服人員總是很親切，很熱心的處理問題，房間就算沒開暖氣其實也很溫暖，熱水來的速度也很快。

Close to everything. Free parking

None

Free parking and close to downtown , bed is comfy and friendly staff

The room doesn’t have kitchenette it only has a small fridge , microwave oven, some dinnerware , no cooking pot and cook top. Room size is smaller than normal. The furniture is dated and needs upgrade.

Location

Old tired room, poor internet, uncomfortable bed

Location.

Parking was tight, rooms are old and in need of maintenance.

Location to city was walking distance. Parking outside apartment was possible. Priced right for how dated the room was, but knew that in advance from photos. Bed was comfortable and unit spacious. Room serviced daily, could not fault staff and friendliness.

Light over shower was not working. Crockery, glassware was just random pieces. Room was tired and windows hard to open and close due to age, but as stated above price reflected what was there.

It was convenient and the room we booked was great value

Lighting was poor. Dodgy electrical Double socket.

Great location, really enjoyed the place

Shower pressure was terrible, flushing of the toilet was meh also Wifi was terrible

Good location

Very dated. Bathroom doors did not close properly. Parking is very tight if you’re driving a large car or Ute.

Good size car park behind the motel

Very tight car park in front of rooms

Beds were clean and comfortable. Staff were quick to respond to our Cleaning requests. Location easy walk into CBD.

Some General house keeping not done. Needed a 'Spring' clean and some maintenance.

It’s location. Beds were comfy and we used one free standing heater and were lovely and warm. Had wall mounted heat pump but we didn’t use it.

While beds, floor, & bench clean the place needs tidied up. The net curtains weren’t gathered just fitted across the window not reaching the bottom and had the odd hole. The paint work all needed attention and the skirting boards needed cleaned they were filthy. The whole place just needs maintenance work. The tap in kitchen I turned it and turned it no water but owner said just keep turning and we got water. Was hard to find at night as there sign wasn’t lit up just vacancy sign lit .

Location and facilities were good.

Location, was upgraded, handy To Pedro’s house of Lamb, warm , great price

Oven didn’t work

Easy to walk to most places. Bed was comfortable.

Traffic noise but it was expected

Good location, close to city, clean and warm.

Slightly dated, but for the price good value.

Enjoyed the stay easy check in and out Overall ok

There was a 1 foot step up into the shower not good when trying to get out could do with a couple of handrails

It was a great price for a one night stay.

Location and price were great

The pace felt a little run down

Location excellent Within walking distance to everything

Location, free unlimited wi-fi, great bed, clean, ground floor, easy parking, quiet, easy walk to Merivale Mall. Full set of clean towels supplied on request. Good heaters.

Toilet wouldn't flush normally, required the button to be held to fully flush. Bedside light flickered and went off & on intermittently. High step into shower was not consistent with my warning of my wife being mobility compromised. The whole complex was showing signs of serious wear, dated and very tired.
