WE use the Ruthven Street Motor Inn for our stays in Toowoomba. Usually the pricing is reasonable and the rooms suit our needs. It is also conveniently located to get around Toowoomba should your visit require that.

We stayed overnight in Toowoomba to break up a long drive. We arrived late and left early, so our stay was brief. The motel was suitable for what we needed though.

I was not able to use this booking. Staff said the motel was full and that they neither take bookings from wotif nor expedia. This booking was a waste of time. I would like my money refunded please.

It was clean and convenient to all places. The signage at the front was not so good, hard to find and drove by it a couple of times when going back to it…. A grey sign with grey wall..not so good.

Liked: Cleanliness
Clean and tidy rooms with basic cooking and bathroom facilities. Motel is close to fast food outlets and a brief drive to a shopping centre. Unfortunately, the motel was fully booked which meant lots of noise. Between that and an uncomfortable mattress, it was very difficult to sleep. A fair place to stay for a night.
