Fabulous older property which was very comfortable.
Pros:

Older property with all necessary facilities. It is very convenient- just off 2nd Gundagai exit. We had a family room which was huge! Would be great for a family.

Cons:

No dislikes - it was great.

Unimpressive, but cheap.
Pros:

It was a low cost option on the way where we were going.

Cons:

The person in the office was not welcoming and came to our room to complain about where we parked our car. Then he told us it didn't matter anyway.

Quality vintage Aussie motel xx
Pros:

We love the Tuckerbox because of the amazing birds that visit at dawn and sunset!! And the ENORMOUS room we had was great too. I walk with a cane and am hardly even disabled but the room was totally accessible.

Cons:

In our dreams they start doing breakfasts again and shove them through the little hatches! But that’s probably mad x and we always eat at the Niagara in Gundagai anyway!

Solid 3 star experience.
Pros:

Room was very clean. Linen was fresh. Room had microwave and facilities.

Cons:

Check in staff member was abrupt in manner, weird that I didn’t have to show ID or sign anything. Air conditioner in the room was broken. Shower was barely warm.

An excellent place to stay if requiring an overnight rest.
Pros:

Everything about this hotel was excellent. The room was very clean & comfortable, with parking right outside the door. It was quiet & well situated with the petrol station across the road. There were plenty of food facilities to choose from which made it easy for meals.

Cons:

I really can't find any faults with this motor inn.

A bad ambassador for country hospitality
Pros:

The location worked well to break up our journey.

Cons:

The host was rude and very unhelpful when we arrived out of hours (as was agreed). We hadn't received a text advising how to enter our room, and instead of coming out of his room to assist he rudely declared it wasn't his fault. If you're looking for warm, country hospitality, don't book here! There was also a funky smell in the room which was unpleasant!
