For only one night it was fine. Would stay there again. Only saw staff at reception when checking in, I’m sure they were lovey, saw some working very hard around the place but not to talk to. Bed cleaning and comfy and clan good bathroom/shower. Close to town and good eating places and shops. Great aircon.

I kept shower thongs on as carpet felt a bit funny underfoot, other that that it was fine for our needs

Dog friendly, fair price per night, good location.

You guys really need to fix the front door as it nearly came of its hinges every time I opened and closed it. Also, curtains are paper thin and broken so I’d really recommend some blackout curtains. Made it really hard to get to sleep with the amount of light coming through. Felt like midday when it was midnight.

We had a fantastic time at Merimbula Garden Motel. The rooms were spacious and clean, with good décor and crisp bed sheets. The room unfortunately had a faulty heater. But Arun, the staff, was very friendly, polite, and attentive and went out of his way to upgrade our room to a better and bigger one to ensure that we were comfortable. I can’t fault the place and will definitely go back.

When we arrived we were greeted with a friendly smile and was informed that we were up graded to another room. The room was great, facilities were good, there was a bit of a smokers smell and the pillows were a little too soft. Overall we had a great stay and will stay again. 😊

Great location, breakfast basic but plenty of it

Two thin blankets not enough, could do with updating to doonas. Draught excluder on doors would be beneficial and save money on their utilities bills.

Great location, all amenities that we needed for our one night stop over. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Room was simple but had everything we needed. Little fridge, coffee & tea, and the bathroom was quite spacious.

There was nothing that I really didn't like about the place. It's your standard motel, but much cleaner then others I've been to. I felt safe, we were comfortable and the staff were lovely, whats not to like. It's a no frills kind of place, but I'd stay here again.

Fair price, pet friendly, comfortable shower, clean

Lights not bright enough, it would be good to have some spare rubbish bin bags so we can dump our rubbish. No tissue boxes.

Clean, nice room, pet friendly, and great value for money. We stayed for one night. Could have easily stayed longer. Very pleasant.

Nothing really. Bed a little bit soft.

Quiet location only 2 minutes drive from the center of town. Hill location gives a nice view from the room across town. Comfortable bed and big shower.

Room did not have AirCon. Not an issue with our stay as the temp was only in the low 20's and cool at night but worth mentioning.
