4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2013

The room was clean and comfortable and large enough to sleep 2 adults and 2 teenagers in comfort. Shower was nice and hot. Loved the big towels. Excellent value for money. Would stay here again. The only complaint was that the walls are a little thin if the neighbours have their TV up loud.

Stayed one night and found accommodation in large room for 2 adults and a 12 year old very comfortable. Motel was very easy to find and was relatively close to the Zoo and eating establishments. Room was clean and spacious.

One of many similar motels in Dubbo. Functional and ideal for one night but nothing flash. Room was clean and bed OK and reasonable bathroom. I arrived late a bit later than planned and manager had kept office open until I arrived which was appreciated.

My husband and I stayed at the Blue Gum Motor Inn on our way to Tamworth. The room was comfortable but quite dated, and the air conditioner didn't really work well, which was a shame on a 40 degree night. It wasn't expensive so I guess this was a case of you get what you pay for. The bed was... More

Thank you for you comments. The air cons have been working overtime during the last few weeks with temps hitting a max of 40- 45 deg. They are only good for pulling the temp down about 15 -18 deg so on a 40 deg plus day they needed a head start to cool the rooms down. They are all checked... More

The key issue to this review seems to be: not having a suitable parking spot for his new car on a night that we were full. With the except ion of disabled guests parking spot, there are no designated parking spaces and it is a case of “first in best dressed” There are sufficient parking spaces to cover for all... More

Great room. Spacious and well presented. Shower was a tad difficult because hot and cold would fluctuate for no reason. Meal from restaurant was lovely. Wonderful staff. Friendly and helpful. Comfortable bed. Flat screen tv. Ample parking. Would definitely return if passing this way again. Continental Breakfast was included in room cost. Delicious.

This motel is very reasonably priced. What you get is a clean room comfortable bed in a quiet location (even though on main road). As others have mentioned the towels are good. My only complaint would be the shower, although clean, the water saving shower heads are too constrictive. Can't get good flow or temperature. I ended up screwing off... More

This is the third motel on the left as you come into Dubbo from Sydney. It's worth stopping because it's your old fashioned basic very clean 'mom and pop' run motel - plus a few rooms have a bit more style and comfort thrown in - and all for a very modest tariff. It's on the highway but quiet which... More
