Gladstone Cbd Motel

The room was dirty, with pubic hair on the bed and in the bathroom, and the sheets and bathroom weren’t properly cleaned. The stairs to the room were broken and extremely dangerous, as was the pool gate we had to pass through to get there. The man at the front desk was helpful and apologised, but the manager didn’t seem to care. We left for somewhere much nicer and cleaner at a similar price, and they refused to refund us.

The location was handy, right near most of the shops I needed, but that was the only good part. After the first night the mattress sheet shifted, exposing the edge of the mattress. It was disgusting, with lots of dark brown spots. I wondered if it had been left out in the rain and who had slept on it. I was so put off that I booked another motel because I didn’t want to sleep there again.

The staff were excellent and very helpful, including suggesting a couple of nice parks to visit. The rooms look recently renovated and were excellent, better than a 4 but not quite a 5. I only stayed one night, though the location seemed good. It’s pet friendly, which is great. Highly recommend.

A convenient, quiet location and friendly, welcoming staff made for a pleasant stay. My room was clean, well maintained and had the essentials I needed to be comfortable. It’s a good quality option for the price, and I’d happily come back.
