Reviews for Alluna Motel

Review 1:The Alluna had a big room, great sitting space, comfortable bed, clean bathroom and a lovely tidy pool & grass area. The owners were friendly and helpful. It was well located to walk to the main shopping centre and drive to the University.

Review 2:Our room was very comfortable and more than adequate to suit our needs. We were able to utilise a microwave and with the kettle and toaster we were able to make our own breakfast. The bed was very comfortable and the addition of two sofa chairs made it pleasant for watching television. The room had plenty of cupboard space, an air conditioner, hairdryer, iron and ironing board. We enjoyed our stay in this delightful motel and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The town centre was only a few blocks away so we walked there for dinner and enjoyed the nearby park along the way.

Review 3:Room was smaller than other family rooms we stayed in. A microwave would've been handy.

Review 4:Lovely people. Close to middle of town for shops and food. Clean. Great pool.

Review 5:A restless sleeper with a squeaky bed is not much fun

Review 6:The staff were welcoming, the room fitted the whole family, it was clean and great value for money

Review 7:They have a phone or doorbell or somethnminf connected to a bell, which is located outside of the rooms, presumably so they can hear it in all parts of the facility. When it goes off in the middle of the night it woke up both my colleague and I. It goes off quite early as well, disturbing a much needed sleep in. I'd sort this out, as it impacts guests quite a bit.

Review 8:Everything was great. Facilities etc were good for that level of Accomodation.

Review 9:Door to room was dangerously difficult to open. Manager came promptly when asked, but sprayed excess oil all over lock and it stank out the room for the rest of our stay. He tried, but was a bit over zealous. Our room a bit shabby but they in the process of refurbishing.

Review 10:Towels are too small & not sufficient, soaps are tiny, shower cap tiny, conditioning shampoo is awful.

Review 11:friendly manager on check-in, clean pool, real milk !! Quiet, clean room.

Review 12:Great motel for two couples as the units adjoined and shared a private balcony. The rooms were roomy, well appointed and very comfortable. Loved the sitting area. The rooms were fresh - modern prints, new vanity .decent size TV.

Review 13:Bed not thàt great, fairly hard and lumpy. A problem at checkin but owners sorted it eventually. Not an overly warm welcome.Just didn't impress me greatly.

Review 14:Room was clean and well maintained.

Review 15:Traffic noise excessive. Room smelt of strong bleach. Bathroom old/ cold and in need of an upgrade.

Review 16:Within walking distance to shopping area and restaurants. Bed comfortable.

Review 17:Very aged hotel, for the price it was underwhelming. The beds were fairly uncomfortable and the shower was either boiling hot or freezing cold. Also very annoying that the fan in the bathroom made it an arctic tornado the minute you turned the light on.

Review 18:Great staff, very friendly people. Well located close to the main parts of Armidale.

Review 19:Bathroom needs cleaning properly, hair left in there, also shower screens need a really good scrub. Beds and pillows need replacing. Owner has dogs that bark everytime someone turns up. Can also hear braking trucks. Poor TV reception.

Review 20:Shower tepid at 8 am had to rush it before hot water ran out. Neighbours a bit noisey but it was a Saturday night

Review 21:Easy to find, good wide parking, unit basic but nice and clean, staff friendly

Review 22:Very quiet rooms even though on the riad leading into town. A warm greeting and comfortable room. Was very cold night but with air con, heated blankets and oil heater we were toasty warm.

Review 23:friendly staff could not have done more for me. Updated my room even although I did not ask for it. The evening meal was delicious also breakfast. A good night sleep and close to town centre. Will go again and recommend it.

Review 24:We would have liked more cutlery in room rather than just teaspoons. I thought it was walking distance to town but was my misunderstanding.

Review 25:Staff were very welcoming even though we arrived late in the evening.

Review 26:The motel is well situated to Armidale and owners very helpful. The room was large with a double/single bunk bed, double bed and single bed. Plenty of beds and plenty of space. A small coffee area, with a fridge. A good size bathroom with a large shower. A lovely stay

Review 27:For an overnight stay, the Alluna suited our requirements well. The room was quiet and clean. The hosts were very friendly and happy to help. The motel is within easy walking distance to the main shopping precinct and plenty of eateries.

Review 28:The front door to room 20 needs attention. It seems warped and was very hard to close. The lining on the back was coming away. and there was a gap between the door jamb and the door itself. It could be a security problem.

Review 29:I liked the cleanliness and the standard of the facilities.

Review 30:Thought the pool was small but adequate when not many people staying there. People smoking near our room

Review 31:Help with Laundry as it was a sporting week with back to back games.

Review 32:The room was large and had air conditioning, a cupboard, lounge, comfortable queen bed, benches for two cases, tea/coffee prep area and equipment, fridge, en suite shower room, and a TV that showed free-to-air channels and some pay TV channels. There was a friendly greeting at the front desk with an offer of a small bottle of milk for our tea/coffee. Meals cooked on site can be delivered to your room, as there is no restaurant. Great consideration was shown the following morning in that, even though they needed to urgently turn off the water to repair a major water pipe leak in the garden, they still rang and asked us if we had showered yet, and waited until we rang back to say we had finished with the shower. All good.

Review 33:We only had two nights there. All else was good.

Review 34:We enjoyed our stay because we were provided with great service and attention from our hosts. The motel is easy to find and close to the centre of town.

Review 35:Prefer a restaurant meal to in room dining.

Review 36:Very well located to business centre. However traffic noise was extremely low. Meals were good and although the wine selection was limited

Review 37:Good location. Clean and comfortable. The pool was welcome on the hot day I stayed. Breakfast was good and while I didn't have dinner there, the menu prices looked very reasonable. Wi Fi great.

Review 38:The Queen bed was a little uncomfortable but the rest of the family slept well.

Review 39:The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room had extra facilities than most overnight rooms I have stayed in which made travelling super easy.

Review 40:Thin walls meant noise from next unit was quite disturbing for a while.

Review 41:Staff were welcoming and helpful. Room was as expected for the price and location.

Review 42:Door was difficult to open. Something wrong with handle.

Review 44:The pillows were very hard but if changed it would of been a perfect sleep.

Review 45:The shower pressure was fantastic. The hosts were very helpful and friendly.

To northernterritory, forget the high prices and the reputation of the powerhouseetc, you will find everything you need at "ALLUNA" andreasonably priced,, .breakfast was unbelievable, well presented inROOM,,WiFi was well used by the younger person. Recommend the"THAI" home delivered dinners to your room,also veryreasonably priced.... Our room was very quiet...altogether a veryenjoyable stay.

Review 52:The double bunk squeaks very badly, annoying. Lady smoking cigarettes next door, smoke coming into our room.

Review 53:Very happy, comfortable stay. Would recommend.

Review 54:Lights outside - I know it's security but I like it DARK to sleep and the light comes over the top of the curtains - maybe a pelmet in the next upgrade. Could have done with a couple of wine glasses.

Review 55:Really helpful, approachable, pleasant proprietor. Lovely new bathroom in our unit.

Review 56:can't think of anything

Review 57:Location is close enough to the CBD to walk but far enough to not suffer noise. Easy entry and exit via side road. Parking bays are ample. Rooms spacious and clean with good facilities. We had room 16 down near exit - great spot

Review 58:My husband in particular was not happy with the mattress of the bed and had a poor nights sleep. I was not too bad once I was able to position myself away from all the mechanical paraphernalia that belonged to the electric blanket (that we did not need). It kept digging into me when I rolled onto it. Not sure if the mattress is getting a bit tired or old or maybe it was just uncomfortable for us.

Review 59:Owner was very welcoming and was helpful especially with our evening meal. Room was very clean and tidy considering the age of the motel. Dinner provided was very basic but arrived hot and saved us going out.

Review 60:Prior guests hairs throughout the bathroom and floor. Fluorescent lighting feels more like a convenience store than a place to rest.

Review 61:Location, warm greeting

Review 62:Loved the new bathroom and shower facilities and that while the décor is dated, it is obvious that new owners are doing their best to upgrade to look and feel modern and inviting.

Review 64:The hotel is nice, clean and tidy. The staff at the hotel is very helpful and friendly. The location is good and easy to get to and exit to town.

Plenty of lights in the room at night, nice and bright in the day time. The parking space is a good size space and close to our room. We had a good and comfortable stay.

Review 65:The motel is in a good location it met all our needs for a one night stay. Peter was a good host giving top service. The in room dinner was excellant just what we needed at that time.

Review 66:Everything fulfilled our needs. We were warm, comfortable and could walk most places we needed to. Our room was roomy, clean and functional. We were passing through and stayed for 2 nights.
