There are no words for this abomination of a place. Should be immediately burnt to the ground. Absolutely filthy. The owner seems to be too interested in his computer to worry about cleaning the rooms or making repairs. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! Sleep in your car before choosing this place

The photos lie. It looked like a magic little spot. Only myself to blame as we were rushed and had to book somewhere in a hurry and I never got to read the reviews posed here, exactly as described below. Add the noisy chain smoking permanents living here there was a constant trail of smoke wafting through the 3 inch... More

At first glance the photos of this property looked passable, wish I'd taken the time to read the reviews! We were unable to travel north due to flooding on the Bruce Highway and needed a place to wait it out - after checking onto our room, we noticed the bathroom floor was wet. It was raining heavily outside, so I... More

Booked on Quickbeds as it looked ok. Should have read here first. While Buderim is an upmarket area, this motel is a hovel. To be fair, the beds are comfortable. But the motel is just run down with strange goings on, which makes one feel a little uneasy. Felt grubby inside, parking very difficult, saw empty beer bottles left on... More

We were gouged $150 for their "family" room on Xmas night. After prepaying 4 nights earlier they tried to give us a sleep 3 room instead of sleep 4. The sheets were clean. that was the only redeeming feature. Beds Saggy and awful. pillows thin. so grubby I refused to take my shoes off or use the shower. The toilet... More

We stayed here for 2 nights only because we were working in the area and our 'Boss' had pre booked and paid for it. We have done a lot of traveling around the world and have stayed at many 'budget' hotels. This would have to be the worst ever by far! This place has no redeeming features whosoever, it should...

The motel was an old style, and probably one of , if not the, "original" motel/s in Buderim, from back in the 70's maybe. It doesn't seem to have been upgraded much. Rates reasonable. Family room was quite small, and oldish'. However, it did the job for what we needed that weekend and we were still quite happy. The pool... More

What a deplorable excuse for a motor inn, an absolute rigmarole! Upon arrival, we did not feel at home at all. The vibe was off putting and the room was absolutely despicable. Prior to even opening the door to our motel room, we had chills and a gut feeling that this place was not of a cleanly standard. We stayed... More

When you think of Buderim, you think of a boutique paradise place on the sunshine coast with its sweet Ginger and other nice little shops, sadly this place is a reverse of what Buderim is supposed to be about, its not a boutique paradise oasis it claims to be on the sunshine coast, neither is it sweet like its Ginger...
