The property doesn’t look like much on the outside but the rooms are VERY clean. They take pride in adding extras like earth friendly and natural soaps and shampoos. They have extra towels in the rooms, along with a coffee maker, refrigerator and microwave. They even put wine glasses in the room along with a wine opener. It’s the little straw that they do that you can tell they take pride in their rooms. Parking is a bit strained but they have a great late check in system. There is no elevator and we had an issue with someone in our group not being able to get up the stairs and even with our late check in they went above and beyond to change our room with no hesitation and friendly service. In this area it is all motels and not hotels and I highly recommend this one.

Stopped at the end of our great ocean road trip. Room was a good size, comfortable bed. Basic but comfortable. Easy parking. Close to town though we didn’t spend any time there. Only complaint is how loud the cars are outside, we were woken at 5am to slamming doors and engines starting. We are early risers but that’s not a nice way to wake! The cars are parked right outside the doors. Not a lot the hotel would be able to do about that so if you value a slight lie in/are light sleeper just keep that in mind. We’d stay again for a short stopover.

Really friendly welcome. We were upgraded to an apartment. Really nice lounge and dining area but not a proper kitchenette which was disappointing. So nowhere to fill the kettle other than the bathroom and nothing to wash dishes with. Also not enough power points so lots of adapters.

We're glad you found us so friendly, Judith, and appreciated your upgrade to an apartment, including a large and really nice lounge and dining area. Thanks for your feedback.

Air conditioner was cold only. The heater did its job but it was noisy
Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023
Response from Rob on 29 July 2023
Hi Michael, thanks for your review. We have installed reverse-cycle aircons/heaters in some rooms, such as yours. They are very powerful, and cool or heat the room quickly, although they are admittedly not always super-quiet. Our rooms are very well insulated, so most guests find that once the room has reached their desired temperature they can switch off the aircon/heater overnight and experience peace and quiet at a comfortable temperature. We look forward to seeing you here again at City Heart Motel!

Enjoyed the stay - efficient and the room had everything we needed. The shower area was particularly interesting and I was happy with the attention to reducing single-use/plastic. Also thought that the people running it had a good sense of humour (with the algorithm style whom to contact sheet). And great location!
