Capricornia Motel

Hotel Motel Boarding house Group accommodation

😠 This was one of the worst nights of my life. The place is filthy, stains on beds, linens and blankets. We spent the entire night killing cockroaches the size of a hand, they were in and around the bed, and in the furniture. The residents of the Motel have been yelling all night, the police came and... People often mention filthy, night,

    This was one of the worst nights of my life. The place is filthy, stains on beds, linens and blankets. We spent the entire night killing cockroaches the size of a hand, they were in and around the bed, and in the furniture. The residents of the Motel have been yelling all night, the police came and tried to make them stop, but the mess started again with yelling and pounding on doors until 4am. No sleep for us. Horrible. We tried to get a room somewhere else, but at that point it was too late.

    The man that checked me in took 232 dollars right out of my card but they didn't refund my security deposit after my 2 night stay. I have tried emailing them but I get no response as I'm overseas and can't call them. It's such a big mistake and they won't even bother to fix it. Horrendous!

    Honestly this place has cockroaches bigger than my piece and I’m absolutely packing. The bedroom is the perfect place to take a 2/10 after a dirty night on the sesh at 4am and no one else is about, the kettle also looks like someone had a vindaloo and couldn’t find the toilet! 5/5 for service though the guy running it is a top bloke.

    I didnt even last 10mins at thia place, checked into my room the fridge had cockroaches the shower had cockroaches the walls were filthy the door didnt lock an The locals were over running the swimming pool like it was their own backyard. I left an got a refund immediately but the worst part was what im assuming to be the owner having a full go yelling at the very sweet lady in the reception office for giving me a refund once i walked out of reception, Didnt say a word to me though the gutless coward not even an apology or nothing

    The most misrepresented accommodation I have ever stayed in. The photos must be 30 years old and I don’t know who has put the positive reviews because there is absolutely no positive here. No glasses tv didn’t work I could go on! Paid for 3 nights stayed one only then because we had no Wasn’t just old but poor condition. Guests yelling and fighting no night reception, police the only option. No refunds.

    DO NOT STAY at this motel. We had 2 nights booked but left on the first day. Forfeited all monies paid and went elsewhere. This place is filthy, no hot water, tv doesn’t work, advertises WIFI but there isn’t any. Unruly guests. The only good thing is its location. The camp kitchen is disgusting. If only someone took over this place and brought it up to its potential. At the moment it is a dump. I did not feel safe there. And at $88 it is not cheap

    Revised review this was first post. 1/Dirty floors, termite ridden window eves and clientele that are a bit to be desired. Excluding myself haha. Look it's not altogether horrible just not that great. Look at my pictures. And make your own Mind up. I've stayied at backpackers for a lot less than half the price and be twice as clean. The shower and the bed are clean. Now 2/ fresh paint and holes repaired. Room had been refreshed and the lady gave me a members card for the sports trailer club which have me a few dollars of my meal. A bit happier now. And would recommend a stay if budget required.

    DO NOT STAY HERE! Worst accommodation I have ever stayed in. Health department should close it down. Rooms had cockroaches running around, the whole room was filthy and the communal kitchen... just don't go there. Pictures on the internet are false advertising. We would have left but no refund of course!!

    I was struggling to find a place to rent with my two big dogs and ended up homeless. I was suggested to call these guys and they gave me a great deal and place for me and my for babies to stay. Terry is super friendly and great to chat with.

    Room was old and tired. Bed was awful - very uncomfortable. Bit dirty but you get what you pay for. Service was excellent from the manager

    it was ok, but our doors lock was broken so we had to move the couch in order to close the door. my bed didn’t come with a blanket, just a sheet.

    DO NOT STAY HERE. Don’t be silly like me and not check the reviews before booking! I am honestly not sure how this place is still operating. Arriving outside it looked grim & dirty, I thought “maybe inside will be better”… it wasn’t. First thing you see In reception is a sign that says “NO REFUNDS”. Now I’ve stayed in budget accommodation, but for over $100 per night you would expect the place to at least be CLEAN! Dead insects, dust & grime everywhere, all housekeeping must do is change the sheets. It looks like it hasn’t been renovated since it opened, I think every tile in the room was cracked or chipped. Holes & cracks in the walls, furniture looks like it was found on the street, the mattress feels like you are sleeping on car springs covered by a thin piece of paper. Last but not least the SMELL… it smelled like an abandoned house that hadn’t been opened since the 1950’s, no amount of deodorant or fresh air could get rid of it. If possible I would give zero stars. They must be PAYING people to keep their rating up.
