Noisy Drive-Through

Room was a great size but it backed onto the maccas drive-through which is noisy. The dated aircon hissed and creaked all night. Upon entry to the room it had a musty smell and the bathroom overwhelmed by bleach.

No Weeping Willows

After a long drive from country Victoria we pulled into Willows Motel. Very happy with our choice. One road back from the major road we experienced no road noise at all. Parking right outside your door. Clean, spacious and comfortable room. Bathroom modern with a huge basin and lovely tiling and fantastic water pressure Good wifi free coverage. Check in was a breeze as was check out. As we travel this way three or four times a year we will definitely be back

Great place

Reviewed By DeannaV17

Stayed one night while driving through NSW. We were greeted by very friendly staff and given some all important milk for a cuppa after a long day, always a big plus for me! Room was basic but spotlessly clean. Bathroom shower was strong and hot and the bed was super comfortable. This place had everything we could have wanted. On a plus side the bakery on site opened at 5.30am to allow us to grab a coffee for our journey home. Have nothing negative to say, would definitely recommend and I’d happily stay here again.

Bad motel

Reviewed By laurajH5156UR

Disgusting. Dampness/mould is a major health issue. Bathroom floor literally wet. Bathroom door falling apart. Skirting boards lifting from wall. Power points coming away from wall surrounded by damp. Paint blistering on walls due to damp. Beds appear clean but are damp . Toilet paper damp. Generally dirty. Hasn’t been cleaned. Dirt on finger grips on fridge. Tv no signal. Heater could not be turned on - may have been on timer but no instructions to operate. No way to get help after hours.

Reviewed By LAMusician58

We have stayed here previously. Excellent in-house restaurant with lovely staff. Above average rooms. May 19th 2022 Unfortunately the wi-fi in room 9 was non-existent & when I made enquires to the front desk, the man was so abrupt (also at reception) that it bordered on rudeness. We could even hear him bullying the chef in the restaurant. This person needs to brush-up on their people skills, be more gracious & learn to smile!

Disappointing

Reviewed By clairemP4447AP

This overnight was paid in full online but on arrival an additional $15.30 was charged - saying the online booking engine made a mistake? Room was grubby. Bedspread was thin and ancient. The heater was noisy and insufficient. Will not be back.

Great location, Nice rooms, middle range motel. Good friendly service

Nice comfortable rooms, with some modern touches. Great location, very close to the town centre & historical district (approx 500m or a 2-3 min drive)! Visited in autumn and the weather changed to a cold spell from warm and sunny to a chilly 12 degrees at lunchtime! Pack jumpers & coats.

We stayed in the Astor Suites... Newly renovated part of the building. It was a huge room with coffee machine and large bathroom, comfortable beds. Everything was good on arrival with friendly check in. We slept so well that I had to phone reception in the morning as we were running late with our departure. They were great, no problem at all with extending check out time

Good overnighter

Reviewed By michaellS5747WV

What you see is what you get, mid-price accommodation, clean and comfortable. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. It's close to amenities and cafes. Being on the main road of a large town I expected more traffic noise but the U-shaped layout facing the side street helped, and trucks travel along the motorway. We would stay there again.

A dry bed, a hot shower and a secure door is all I ask. Two out of three ain't bad.

Reviewed By justpostthedamnrevie

Goulburn is a pretty town with lots to see and do nearby so the motel was a base of operations, not a destination in itself. I wasn't expecting much of Hillview Motel Goulburn. It looked like a miniature version of those highway motels in serial killer movies except this place was full; we had two rooms but just one vehicle so our car park two metres from our doors was assured. The Chinaman that runs the place has limited English but is always smiling and pleased to help with any request. The room was small - the double bed was in a corner so if there had been two in the room we'd be bumping heads and elbows quite a bit. The bathroom was expertly tiled but a recently installed sink looked cheap and hurried. The hot water pressure went up and down at random. The bathroom smelled like chlorine so I;m thinking a lot of bleach is used in the daily clean or the serial killer vibe had some truth. Panasonic has a well deserved reputation for consumer electricals, not so Palsonic. The cheap knock-off flat screen had a twelve second delay so that if you tried to change channels there was a five second delay while you doubted your aim or button pressure before the screen went blank and another seven seconds until the new channel was found. If you want to mute the television you want it to mute instantly, not ten seconds later. This was the most annoying thing about the stay even though every car that started and departed from the carpark sounded like my car being stolen. There was no cupboard and just one hook to hang clothes and that meant your suit was partially in the shower. Couldn't we have another hook, please ? I was only there to sleep, shower and change and this cupboard allowed that adequately.
