Civic Motor Inn

Bargain accomodation for a single night on our road trip with the pup. Interior of the room looked recently freshened up with new paint. Clean & comfortable with all the things we needed for a good nights sleep. Caretakers/cleaners are clearly doing a great job. Walking distance to McDonalds & a few cafes & a nice park by the river where the Aboriginal art works are on the bridge pylons. The only things that detract are the pool & bbq area was in disrepair. Worth correcting or removing as it looks quite bad. The signage for the property is also covered by overgrown garden & wasn’t visible at night. We had our sat nav so just followed that but others could miss the property. These things didn’t affect our stay though hence the 5* overall.

People should not be allowed to smoke right outside the rooms. Can’t say smoke free rooms when the doors have gaps and the guy next door smokes right outside your room every 30 minutes all night, not joking. In and out of the door and the smoke from him made my daughter and I unwell. Felt uncomfortable to say something as the reception also smelt of smoke.

A bit of mess on the floor but otherwise very pleased. Modern room and interiors.

I think the rooms have had a minor makeover but from the outside the place looks really run down. The road noise is annoying.

Friendly helpful staff

Cheap and as expected, not much in way of extras. No breakfast, but as a passing overnight stop didn't care.
