Fair dollars for room; conveniences such as jug; microwave; cutlery/crockery; free wifi welcome having teens. Lingering scent of cigarette smoke in smoke free room a slight downer. Ramps provided for wheelchair access and set up by owner? of premises to be heavily praised. Thank you

Nice small motel just out of town. Friendly staff. Pool was closed but we sat on the pool chairs anyway. Fridge had a bit of a fishy smell. Lovely grounds looking at cows! Felt safe and slept well.

Smell of the septic tank system dominated our room. Fly screens were covered in dust/fluff, ceiling had areas of paint flaked off. Carpet was worn to no pile at all on high traffic areas. Linen great, clean, crisp, bed too hard for my taste, some will like that. Compared to other places on Easter weekend, really cheap, okay value for what it is. Shower was renovated and great hot water but soap dispensers were squeeze type and nearly empty: if you are old/arthritic, too hard to squeeze! Value for money, but a few cosmetic additions like dealing with carpet, paint, soap would all make a lot of difference.

A very basic motel desperately in need of a thorough spring clean. Entrance to the motel is an issue and somewhat dangerous.

Driving in and out was a bit difficult. The speed limit, not lots of room to turn in and the wall at entry.

The property was clean and was a perfect stay for 2 nights stay for our family of 4. It is closer to Moruya town and eateries. We loved the room service as the beds were all made and room was all clean when we came back after our 1st day out. Good Stay!

Response from Moruya Motel on 7 Dec 2022
Hello,Looking at the dates of your stay I can confirm that it was right after our 2 weeks of crazy rain. Unfortunately we had at least 7-12 days of rain some being 40-50mm. This results in the grass being very soft and muddy. Any attempt to mow would result in the mower getting stuck and/or damaging the grass. The only option in this situation is to wait for the ground to dry enough so we can go ahead and mow, this can take 1-2 weeks if w2e get sun and wind. Please be assured we do maintain and mow our 10 acres of land very thouroughly when weather is permiting. Thank you.

I think Moruya Motel would be my preferred place to stay when travelling the NSW coast. Quiet, clean, friendly. Perfect for that one night stop when travelling.

The Moruya Hotel is very basic but it's clean and relatively quiet. The cows in the next paddock are charming, and Moruya is a lovely and friendly little town. Would stay again if I'm in the area.

Moruya Motel was the perfect spot for us to stay on our way from Sydney to Melbourne. The room was spotless, and very well equipped with everything we needed (cutlery and crockery, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge etc). The beds were incredibly comfortable - we have stayed at a lot of different accommodation types over the years and these beds were the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in. The staff are wonderful, very helpful and kind, answering lots of our touristy questions and giving us brilliant suggestions! The Moruya Markets on Saturday mornings are amazing, I am so grateful that the staff at the Motel told us about these because I was able to do some last minute Christmas shopping there! The wifi is excellent here too which was very important for my IT husband. Highly recommend
