Reviews for Melaleuca Motel
Review 1:This motel badly needs refurbishing. The wooden edges of the tables are sticky from age. There was a bug in my bed which crawled underneath my pyjamas! I caught it and didn't tell my wife about it lest she wouldn't be able to sleep all night. The washing basin was littered with dead small insects in the morning.
Review 2:Location at one end of a main street is good, quiet yet convenient.
Review 3:The only very minor issue was the exhaust fan cover in the bathroom was in need of cleaning
Review 4:Friendly and helpful managers, clean, spacious and very comfortable room with all usual facilities.lots of instant hot water.WiFi worked very well. Close to restaurants and attractions.Would gladly recommend this property
Review 5:We had a big spider in the room near the front door but we only saw him the morning we were leaving so I didn't have to sleep with it in the room but that didn't impact our stay at all we will definitely come back and stay again.
Review 6:The staff were lovely and friendly
Review 7:Owner was very helpful and accommodating. Rooms very clean. Free WiFi always a nice bonus. Great central location to restaurants and supermarkets. Spacious family rooms.
Review 8:As we were playing soccer early the next morning nearby, the host allowed us a late checkout to come back to the room and shower before heading off again.
Review 9:It would be nice is they could mention they have kettles and toasters also included in the room. It only mentioned about the microwave. We bought a kettle from home since we didn't know.
Review 10:Clean beds
Review 11:Kids Easter was ruined due to large infestation of ants in the room . Within hours of arriving everything was attacked and covered with them including the Easter eggs which had to be thrown out
Review 12:I thought the dirty carpet was a real turnoff. However, we were there only one night and the rest of the place was clean, basic and comfortable. Good for a quick visit.
Review 13:Located right in town and lovely harbor view. The hotel is older and could be renovated but was okay for the night.
Review 14:The beds were so comfortable with great pillows and real bedding! No itchy old blankets but real doonas on all the beds! Shower was excellent as well! We will definitely stay again.
Review 15:Minor Point: the bedside table was a bit sticky from some previous occupant. Bed very comfortable though.
Review 16:Comfortable stay, friendly staff, easy to enjoy. Great bed and easy going nature of management made us feel welcome, happy to stay again.
Review 17:Rooms and bathroom should be refurbished.
Review 18:Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent free Wifi facilities. Free guest laundry faciliteit. Car on front of your door.
Review 19:We were on the far end from the office and our WiFi was terrible. It cut in and out. The larger bed was very firm. Some outdoor lighting would be nice to get in the room after dark.
Review 20:Location was great and so was the kitchen area. The room was very clean and staff very friendly!
Review 21:Bed was quite hard.
Review 22:The room was large and quiet with parking directly outside the room. The carpet was worn. It looked like it had been painted but the cream ceilings and pale green walls are a little old fashioned. Comfortable for a night. Walking distance to restaurants, supermarket and pub. Wifi was free for 500MB with password for 1 device. It was quite slow but similar to wifi in many other motels.
Review 23:was given passwords for free wifi but couldn't connect although didn't bother to ask why, walls seemed a little thin and could here anyone talking outside or next door.
Review 24:Central location to the main street and foreshore, no traffic noise, bed and pillows were clean and comfortable, tv with good reception, water pressure in shower good, over all had a good stay.
Review 25:The shower pressure was pretty poor. The kitchen area had no sink meaning having to use the bathroom sink to prepare food and wash up.

Review 30:We had a very spacious, clean and comfortable older-style room, which was more than adequate for our 1-night stay. Owners helpfully advised the various dining options/locations for dinner that night. Our cooked breakfast arrived on-the-dot of the requested time, and got us off to a flying start to the next day. This was a good value-for-money stay.
