755 Regal Court Motel

Having stayed here for work back in 2011 I expected the same standard. Not so unfortunately. I rang specifically asking for an access unit for elderly family staying with me. On arrival the women led me to stairs. I stopped her and said we need a ground unit. We were the led to unit 17. The layout was great but it's easy to see that the place had become run down. Mould on the net curtains and the back of the curtains and black mould on the roof of the bathroom. The shower was not an access shower as it wasn't wet floor. Thankfully I was the only one needing a shower but the drains must be blocked as water pooled at my feet. The bedroom smoke alarm was broken which was quite alarming given even landlords have to have working alarms in each room. One of the bed spreads was ripped. The floor needs a good professional wash and had stains. Being on the side of the motel that sees no sun I would not recommend unit 17 in the Winter. It was exceptionally cold as we entered because all the windows were open. If you run out of anything they make the guest go to the office to replenish supplies. Good points: Comfortable beds. Good heat pump when cranked up. Whilst very tired it was fine for overnight. The bedroom heater blew cold air, luckily the heat pump was able to heat both rooms sufficiently. Overall, an average stay and I guess price dictates as it was cheap compared to others.

We received an upgrade due to the extensive onsite contruction. Room was very spacious. Jucuzzi needs a new casing. Well located - close to downtown.

The place was tidy, a good location, close to 24 hour grocer, a bit of work going on at the time we stayed so there was scaffolding all around but that was ok, easy parking, easy access to more towels and condiments if you needed them, the only let down was the noise from the other room (which can’t be helped) and the kitchen was not equipped with what we needed with 4 people staying. Ie: 1small pot to cook other then that it was ok

Original room was facing the road and a bit noisy. This was a minor issue compared with the No Smoking room smelling of cigaret smoke. We let the manager know and she moved us to another room that was significantly better. This is an older motel that was when we stayed being repainted externally. The beds were comfortable and the rooms clean. Location on George Street is conveniently close to the city.
