DENISE

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Firstly, the reception was closed when we arrived at 2.20 p.m. A phone call located the 'manager' at the shops - she returned about 15 minutes later. Booking requested a downstairs room; informed on arrival that only 2-bed 'apartments' are available on the top floor. Offered two separate rooms, which would have cost more. Motel had at least 3 weeks to possibly inform us of the problem, but did not make contact. The rooms pictured in the advertisement are not what you will receive. They are old, dirty, and badly in need of refurbishment. The toilet had brown stains, the shower stall was mouldy, and the shower curtain was too short and filthy with mould. Breakfast cereal already in bowls on counter wrapped in cling wrap (unhygienic and also illegal) - not sure how long the four bowls had been sitting there. Coffee mug stained. Internal doors to bathroom and other bedroom do not open or close properly, one doorknob broken. Broken leg on single bed in main room, broken light in 2nd room, as well as the blind pull broken. Air conditioning is old and noisy - not heating effectively. Cobwebs and dead spiders around windows, hidden by curtains. Considering it was winter, and the night's temperature had fallen to -2 degrees, there were no blankets on the beds - fortunately found in cupboards, as the room was freezing. A friend also stayed here the same night, and his comment was "all that's missing is the chalk outline on the floor." Will never stay here again. Disgusting!

Rooms were ok but heating didn’t work so room was cold. No blankets on bed. Had to go find one in the cupboard which I think should have been already on the bed as it was the middle of winter.

We arrived in the afternoon and when we pulled up there were a couple of tradies vans, but it looked okay....definitely not as good as the photo on the wotif page. The receptionist was uninterested and not friendly at all, didn't even know if I'd paid through wotif. When we walked into the bathroom I would have left if we hadn't already paid....the paint was peeling off the wall. We went out for some sightseeing and dinner. When we got back there was no parking available on the property or out the front, we had to park on the opposite side of the street and further up. The whole motel was full of tradies and there utes, trucks, and trailers. Overnight they were quiet. However before 6am they were outside talking in loud voices, before 7am they were banging lage pieces of timber into their trucks, not a pleasant experience. We decided to get up and leave. The shower was the final straw....it sounded like a jackhammer and the water came out in spurts unless the hot water tap was full on. There was noone in reception to speak to when we left. Cowra is an amazing place, I recommend everyone to come and visit, but DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Sleep in your car instead if you have to.
