Reviews for Gosford Palms Motor Inn
Review 1：Very well equipped room. Nicely modernised bathroom with plenty of bench space for toiletries, hairdryer, etc. Not just tea and coffee making facilities, but microwave, toaster, bottle opener, wine glasses.
Review 2：The locks on the doors are very poor, felt very unsafe. My door was opened during the night, if not for the safety latch they would have come in easily.
Review 3：Clean and quite.
Review 4：If there was something that wasn't good, it was the ultra thin toilet paper, that you usually see in public toilets. Spending a few cents more per roll, wouldn't eat into profits very much at all, and it would complete a comfortable stay.
Review 5：Clean and Comfy, good position etc.
Review 6：I should say room's cleanness was 70% because we found somebody's hairs on the toilet floor and from a hair dryer. The locker from windows were broken on arrival.
Review 7：Reasonable price with good location for having descent buffet dinner
Review 8：typical motel room - not very big - walking distance to hotel for meal and handy to freeway to head to canberra - liked the fact the room had a back door to open to let breeze in
Review 9：Mattress was not good and found a few bugs in the bathroom but otherwise very clean. Also if you can lighten up the rooms I found it clostraphobic Dvd players although replaced did work with band new dvd and could not fast forward
Review 10：Staff was fantastic Loved the location.
Review 11：Nothing.
Review 12：Everything. After a few misses on motels, it was wonderful to find one that was clean, spacious and had friendly reception. It was as quiet as per its advertisement, and very handy location. We also appreciated having MUGS instead of tiny tea cups in the room - as himself likes a decent size cuppa. I liked the pool. Good in-house breakfasts.
Review 13：The air conditioner wasnt very effective so the room was quite warm all night.
Review 14：Our room was comfortable and clean fine for an overnight stay. It was close to some takeaway food places so we were able to get something to eat as we arrived late and left early.
Review 15：This was a one night stay and our first visit. The site was well located for this visit and had all facilities and requirements one expects for the value. We would stay again.
Review 16：Was disappointed the pool was not available as we were dancers who needed cool down in pool and were disadvantaged as other dancers at other hotels could access their unheated outdoor pools at other hotels in Gosford.
Review 17：Loved the free wifi
Review 18：Most avenues were good, except for our car space,we were parked next to the brick pylon, but as we had a ground floor this was a good position for loading and unloading the car with our family.
Review 19：The size of the rooms and location off the main road.
Review 20：It stunk bad smell from the bathroom told housmaids and they said that they had told care takers and nothing had been done room 3 betterplaces to stay in Gosford
Review 21：Things are in bit of need of renovation - but mostly superficial things. Woman was a bit unfriendly at check in but other staff were lovely.
Review 22：Neat and tidy. Well located to access most places on the central coast, just off the main road. Microwave in the room and laundry facilities. The wifi was nice to have also.
Review 23：It was a good, comfortable, clean facility that was very welcome after a long drive. Nothing outstanding on the plus side but, more importantly, nothing at all to complain about.
Review 24：The queen size bed was not very comfortable. The kids bunk beds were fine.
Review 25：The location to the Central Coast Leagues club was great as we had to attend a 30th bday party there. It was very quiet as it's off the highway and couldn't hear the traffic. Also the rooms had a new bathroom and were clean.
Review 26：Nothing to report here
Review 27：I liked the way that the relieving manager went out of her way to assist me with the accommodation when I needed it unexpectedly.
Review 28：Wifi is a problem. I receive weak singal on my phones, better on laptop but limited usage which means I cannot use the wifi on my laptop. However, not too much internet usage cause too tired.:)
Review 29：Cleanness is the most important factor Ii considered. This motel is very very very clean and tidy. Another good point is very quiet. In all, we would strongly recommend this motor inn to someone who has trip plan around that area.
Review 30：As travellers to this area for the first time, it was really nice to have such caring and helpful staff. Nothing was a problem and I would definitely go there again plus recommend it to anyone.
Review 31：their internet was down but the staff managed to work around this.
Review 32：location, they are walking distance to a local tavern that serves good value generous sized servings with an varied menu.
Review 33：Unfortunately the internet was down in the hotel, which meant no wifi either. Not much you can do about this, it's just our reliance on technology
Review 34：Very clean and comfortable. Good bed, quiet location
Review 35：No internet connection while we were there, not motel's fault and more inconvenient for them than us, but it was one of the reasons we booked there, so a little disappointing. Also meant we had to pay in cash.

Review 37：The free Wifi was good....however I was not able to access it consistently from my room for some reason.

Review 46：Would have preferred single beds or queen and one single
Review 47：I thought the motel was very good. The room was spotless as was the bathroom and the couch and chairs.
Review 48：Wifi was a little slow at times and not always easy to pick up
Review 49：Excellent value for money motel. Staff are very friendly and we appreciated the BBQ utensils they provided and the chocolates on Xmas day were a nice touch. The shower in room 5 is probably the best in Australia, awesome water pressure. Motel is very quiet, cannot hear the noise from the main road.
Review 50：Staff people are very friendly, every thing it good, swimming pool it every clean, my room look new and clean, for sure next time my family will come back here for holiday. I recommend people looking for a good price, good place and nice staff for a holiday this it the place...
Review 51：-Refurbished rooms -Convenient location, close to RSL, waterfront, shops and take-away places -Great wifi -Convenient parking -Quiet even though close to road as it is set back a bit.
Review 52：1) The washing machines are too old. 2) Noisy for rooms on ground floor.
Review 53：1) Excellent front desk 2) Well maintained, top notch Motel in terms of cleanliness 3) Value for money
Review 54：Double bunk bed bit rocky. Fridge could have been put in for our arrival as we had cold foods and it was a hot day.
Review 55：The location was easy to find the room was amazingly clean. Pool was also a bonus very clean to. Great little find we will be back.
Review 56：Wi-Fi coverage very poor
Review 57：We stayed for 4 nights. Bedding comfortable. Have to compliment the staff for their friendliness and the cleanliness of the motel. We were dealing with a funeral. We welcomed coming back to the motel at nights as a refuge. We can thoroughly recommend the Gosford Palms and we will certainly stay again should we be in Gosford again.
Review 58：Wifi reception wasnt the greatest in the room, but wouldnt stop me staying there again.
Review 59：The rooms were clean, staff very friendly and helpful. I would be happy to stay there again.
Review 60：Thiughtful management keft room light on for us as a 11pm arrival. Room clean n tidy n crisp sheets. Refuebed bathroom and bug coffee mugs a plus. Thanks a million.
Review 61：Very easy to find & near a shopping centre & restaurants. Presentation of motel & room very clean & practical. Bed comfortable shower was great. A nice & well thought out room very pleasant when entering & quiet which was a bonus. Friendly helpful staff we would stay here again.
Review 62：Mattress appallingly bad. Needs to be replaced. Unit had a back door with a very shabby lock, so didn't feel very safe. Downstairs unit, so very noisy in the morning with the noise of departing guests.
Review 63：Appeared very clean
Review 64：Not very sound proof could hear tv from next door during the night. Cigarette smoke coming in window from smokers next door.
Review 65：Very clean. Comfortable bed. No highway noise. Let us check in a bit early as the room was ready.
Review 66：The hair dryer probably needs some update. It's quite noisy but the hot wind is just too small.
Review 67：We booked 2 rooms, one family room and one twin room. Both rooms are very clean and I love the bed and the pillows so much! They are just so comfortable! This motel even provided us with big bottles of shower gel, shampoo and conditioner which I've never been offered before. Very considerate. Wifi is also good, a little bit slow in the nights when everyone is trying to use it, but sill accessible.
Review 68：Are the sheets polyester-cotton mix as we felt very hot! Suggest cotton blanket. Air-conditioner/ fridge noise disturbed our sleep. I turned both off. No ironing board. The iron- supports of the bench are not very attractive when viewed from sitting in bed- could the bench be fitted-in with drawers to hide the supports?
Review 69：Great shower and hot water pressure. Biscuits for our early morning cuppa appreciated- something which the Crown Plaza in Terrigal does not have!Large mugs for large cups of tea are a good thought. Comfortable bed mattress. Clever redecorating of a seventies-era room makes it good value.
Review 70：Very clean with comfortable bed, microwave oven in room as well as magnifying mirror in bathroom. There was also a windscreen washing brush in the car parking area, which was very necessary for us.
Review 71：Well, the whole reception was weird.
Review 72：When arriving At 8.45 pm The lady behind the reception started right away about the fact she couldn't reach us over the phone. The reception was closed after 9pm and we couldn't have checked in. We reassured her we were here way before 9pm. And asked what the problem was. She couldn't stop and started again and again. All in all a strange way of welcoming your guests without even asking one question. The goodbye was as strange when we left: she ran me over on the stairs and didn't let me pass and pushed through herself. 'Morning' she mumbled. When handed over the key, she gave us the feeling of finally having get rid of all those paying customers. We all thought the lady needed a holiday, and leave the motel business for some time. So much stress. Good luck with that!
Review 73：No mention of free Wi Fi when I checked in. Went out for dinner and reception closed when I got back so couldn't ask for password. No mention in the room compendium. Other establishments often have the password available in the room.
Review 74：Quiet street, easily accessible if coming from the south, very difficult from any other direction without a GPS.
Review 75：A change of management had left a few holes in admin.
Review 76：We liked the proximity, the room was quite spacious and the electric blankets were welcome on a cold winter's night. The bathroom was spacious, hot water plentiful and air conditioner (heater) efficient. While the decor is a little dated, it's clean and very comfortable.
