Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room did not match the photographs. The room itself had dirty curtains that were falling off the railing. They were not any blackout curtains. The furnishings did not match and the bedside table was completely unstable. There was a service hole that had half fallen out of the roof. I paid for a Queen size bed but only got as double. The bathroom had tiles popping off the wall, there was cracks in architrave, and a combined bath/shower facility that had a cheap plastic curtain attached to a rusted out shower railing. There were no handles or steps for climbing in and out of the bath/shower which has to be a hazard. Again, we were promised first rate consumables that never appeared, but I can say that the body wash matched the shampoo which also matched the hand soap. After the reception I got when I checked in, we were not going to use the restaurant so we went across the road to the Rydges where the staff and experience was the complete opposite. All up, one night cost me $414. Ditch this place - go to the Rydges.

Poorly maintained. No towels or tissues on arrival, torn drapes, dirty skirting boards, broken toilet seat, soap residue build up on bottom of shower glass, rain shower head had a build up of something discolouring it so we used the normal shower head instead and the shower drains looked dirty. Terrible value as one night cost approximately the same as two nights in an excellent hotel in Bundaberg. On a positive note the restaurant was good. Food and service was excellent.

I stay in motels for work all over Australia. Best Westerns are usually a safe bet. This one was disappointing from the check in. The staff were rude. Wrong personalities for front counter. Then i checked into room - there was a huge gap above the door, like the building has had movement and the frame is not fitted to door. Road noise came in because of the gap. The bathroom has a shower curtain that had Mould on it. No bench in bathroom to put your stuff down. i could feel every spring in the bed. Really disappointing. It was however close to everything.

The reception staff were not overly friendly or helpful and the room abd facilities were not with the cost of the room. I've cstayed in other motels in Tamworth with better room facilities that were cheaper. I stayed here became it was walking distance to lots of food options which was the only advantage of it.
