Room was simple, clean and comfortable. For me only, i don't like really firm beds. This one was pretty firm, but i slept well. So only a really small issue, but wouldn't stop me from booking again for a short stay. Lovely staff.

A wonderful stay in Nowra

The rooms have been refurbished and are looking modern and fresh. There are both soft and hard pillows, a nice couch and a great large widescreen TV. The motel is away from the highway so it's very quiet and there is a great coffee and donut cafe across the road. Will stay again

Great motel

Our room was clean and comfortable and well maintained. The only complaint I could make is that we could hear voices in the next room and that went on quite late.

The Room was roomy with a comfortable bed. Parking was easy and on-site. The Management was friendly and check-in was easy. Directly across the road was a convenient little coffee roaster selling coffee and gourmet donuts. Great for the morning coffee.

We only had an overnight stay, and it was absolutely perfect! George Bass Motor Inn was the 7th hotel or motor inn we have checked in, on our 3 weeks road trip, and it was the best! It's spacious, with all amenities provided with quality. Everything was presented with great impression, and the beds were very comfortable!!! Kitchen had most things we needed, and what a big fridge!! Sadly, we only stayed overnight. Wish, we were not just passing by needing a place to rest and sleep. But we definitely recommend George Bass Motor Inn. Should we be going back to Nowra, this is the place to be.

Once I settled in, my stay was great. But I arrived to check in and the receptionist was not there, despite it being open hours. She arrived 1 hour later with no apology or recognition. So I couldn’t properly check in to my room for some time. Generally a good stay, great facilities, clean, location is great, it was just soured by the poor customer experience at check-in.
