The motel was comfortable, clean and appreciated the microwave, fridge and tea making facilities. They also accommodated an early check-in.

No one was at reception when we tried to check in at 4:20 PM. Found a lot of dead little mosquitos in room. Our room was one of four on a back wing with no pavement in front. It made for difficulty parking and no one suggested we part on a side lawn. We could hear everything through the walls. The manager seemed totally uninterested in trying to help guests. Book elsewhere..

pros ; beds comfy , Walking distance to town , Quiet , Good privacy cons ; Room smells , Didn’t change bedsheets for a 5 day stay , Don’t give fresh towels everyday , Said online that they had a BBQ area yet they didn’t because ‘due to covid someone has to clean it regularly’ when it should be frequently done anyway , Carpet is dirty , Tv is small and can barely see from the bed , most Tv channels don’t work , Outlet isn’t connected to the wall only by exposed wires , Is called ‘wilson’s prom motel’ yet is about an hour away from Wilson’s prom , Wifi doesn’t work most of the time , Quite dusty , Online says they follow covid restrictions but they don’t at all , Toilet roll holder wasn’t on properly so it kept falling off , No spare toilet roll , shower and tap make a weird deep squeal when turning on and off , Women staff wasn’t friendly , didn’t hear a vacuum cleaner the whole stay nor see one , Dodgy air con/heater remote , Restaurant is only open for a few days for a couple hours , Door was hard to open and close and didn’t feel like it was locked

A basic dated motel. Very clean and quiet. No BBQ area as website states. Nowhere to wash dishes bar a tiny bathroom sink. Tea towel supplied, but no dishwashing liquid. No on-site staff and nowhere to leave luggage after checkout if you are without a vehicle. But prime location. Be aware shop hours and eating out limited as very difficult to get staff. Will stay again as walking distance to aged care where my dad is.

Probably the worst I have ever stayed at. There was no reception staff on arrival. There was no milk in the room. The shower was slippery and dangerous. Water pressure was almost non existent. There was no plug for the vanity. Vanity doors could not be opened. Maintenance in the shower had obviously been attempted by an unqualified person. The bed was small and uncomfortable. At $160.00 a night it was overpriced. I was unable to correct an error when booking through Expedia which has cost me an extra $160.00. In the future I will avoid both Expedia and the Wilson’s Promontory Motel.

The property is well maintained and quite clean, not much to do outside of the property thou. I would think the price is little overpriced given the condition of the property.

The location of the motel was great- close to shops and main restaurant. Also relatively close to Wilson’s prom- 45 minute drive. The sheets and towels were nice, clean and crisp. Thank you to the cleaning lady! The motel itself is quite dated and old. Some of the furniture is cracked. Carpet is worn out and smelly. The air con and TV remote didn’t work. No screen on window, so couldn’t leave it open for security. Finally the plumbing also loud and vibrated when turning on the shower. I also didn’t receive any notification about check in and had to call myself to confirm our stay. The lady that answered was flustered and said she’d back to confirm booking but never did. The man that checked us in was friendly though.

The staff were friendly, however, they didn't really clean the room if you stay for more than 2 days. We had to use the bathroom with numeral ants body for the whole stay. And they didn't change the towels at all even saw it was dirty.
