    Pros +

    • Close to restaurants, pleasant lady at reception…
    • Location
    • Very central to everything.

    Cons -

    • We should have upgraded, but didn’t realise how unpleasant the upstairs room was. Good for a tradie! Three tiles missing off bathroom wall. No bedside tables, no table & chairs for breakfast, very small.
    • Noisy banging doors and late noisy echoing from harp hotel
    • When booked through Booking.com and using the credit card I always use, they refused to accept it as my Booking.com account is in my name but we use a credit card in my wife’s name (same surname). This is the only motel that we have come across that has this policy! The rooms are very tired and on need of renovation.

    Charged more than booking total on the name of merchant card fee and having option for 100% refund, don't include to refund card fee. Be mindful of deception this property is doing prior to booking.

    Needs a complete renovation ,badly stained carpets,cracks in windows and mirrors ,no security lock on door ,bad mattress. And to top it off a 50mm cockroach on the bathroom floor. Very uninviting and cost for all this $190. Just terrible.

    Location was great.

    I was above the Main Street so it got a little noisy. I wish there was a microwave.

    Close to everything

    Uncomfortable bed, but it was money well spent in a convenient location so that is a plus.

    8RonPosted on: 2-3-2026

    Staff were lovelyLocation was fantastic, right in the heart of Wollongong CBD, shops restaurants and pubs at your doorstep.

    Very noisy very early in the morning as others staying were very loud when leaving with no consideration of others.Can hear everything outside if anyone close by.Very noisy and loud when taps were turned on.

    The location was good very close to beach and the staff was friendly and the hotel was quiet.

    The carpet was too old and the small of it bad and we don't found any spoons or forks to eat And the internet was not good.

    7GordonPosted on: 1-21-2026

    central location .walking distance to CBD and beach.. comfortable bed and good shower pressure. but have to say reception staff make this place.. well done.

    rooms badly need a makeover . rooms are very tired and definitely need new block out curtains..the pull done blinds are hopeless ,let to much light in .

    Great staff, perfect location, comfortable room.

    Towels could use a soak in Napisan.

    7DorothyPosted on: 1-11-2026

    The staff were amazing. Room spacious, tv was smart & had apps. Lots of pillows.Great location.

    Very dark interior with lighting, we, could see the light from outside, coming through from above the door. Carpet could do with a good steam.

    7BernardPosted on: 1-11-2026

    Good location and reasonable price.

    Had to keep the blinds down for privacy but even then, people could still see round the edges.
