    convenient location
    limited parking

    The central location allows for easy access to shops, restaurants, and the beautiful waterfront.

    The parking situation can be tricky, as I had to park in the basement carpark when outside spots were taken, which was a bit inconvenient with heavy luggage.

    central base for effortless walks to attractions and parks

    i had a wonderful stay where the staff were warm and welcoming and the central location made exploring cafes and the waterfront an absolute breeze. The nearby parks like kooloonbung creek nature park were perfect for leisurely strolls.

    great location
    comfortable bed
    clean room
    soft mattress
    street noise

    The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Port Macquarie, making it easy to walk to cafes and shops. My room was clean and tastefully decorated with a comfortable bed, but the mattress felt too soft for my liking. I appreciated the spacious flat-screen TV and the well-maintained bathroom, although the lack of a bathroom fan was a bit of a nuisance as it fogged up quickly. Room service was prompt and allowed me to enjoy a quiet dinner without leaving my room. the street noise from outside was bothersome at night. Another downside was the confusing check-in process. The staff seemed a bit disorganized, which added unnecessary stress at the start of my stay.

    5.0

    The room was spacious and clean, perfect for a relaxing stay. The air conditioning worked well and the comfortable bed made for a good night’s sleep after a long day exploring the area.

    There were some downsides. The bathroom flooded during showers due to the lack of a door, which was a nuisance. I also noticed that basic amenities like milk and coffee were not replenished during my two-night stay. The noise from other guests packing their cars early in the morning was bothersome, and the lack of bathroom ventilation created an uncomfortable atmosphere. despite some improvements needed, I wouldn’t completely steer clear of the place.

    The modern bathroom and comfortable bed made for a pleasant stay. Unfortunately, parking was very tight, making it difficult to maneuver.

    The location was superb! Wonderful staff and spacious rooms made our stay enjoyable!

    Though the bathroom lacked a fan, causing fogging, the noise level at night was noticeable.

    Just spent a night at Motor Inn. The room was clean and comfy. The location is super convenient with cafes and shops nearby. Only downside was limited cooking options, but the on-site breakfast was a treat! Definitely a good spot for a quick stay.

    Great central location with cozy rooms

    I had a lovely stay, especially enjoyed the ample space in the room and the comfy bed. The balcony was a nice touch to relax and people-watch. It's conveniently located just minutes away from shops and restaurants, which made exploring the area easy. One thing that could be improved is the noise level at night. it was a bit louder than I expected.
