This is a very good place for a budget motel. It's clearly budget, but what I liked about it is the curtains which all have a pelmet making it quite dark inside despite the bright lights left on outside. Not many budget motels have this. It's relatively quiet due to being a bit out of the centre of town, but the walls are a bit thin so I could hear goings-on in other rooms a bit. Beds are comfortable and there's cutlery and crockery provided. You probably do need a car here though. But for the price it's very good, and there's a very friendly dog out the front!

This is possibly the worst motel I have stayed in. Do not stay there.

Where to start? Judging by the owner's very expensive car, she is doing quite well for herself. Good luck to her for that. Problem is she seems to avoid putting any money into the motel, not just to update it, but also to attend to basic maintenance. The seeming stinginess extends so far as to no complimentary tea or coffee provided. No glasses or crockery, at least none I could find. Complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits is standard service, but not at Margeurita.

You won't get any more than 10 minutes hot water. There is modern heating and cooling but the old appliances have been left in place where they decay. The garden is unkempt. The back fence is falling over. It is honestly like something from the 3rd world. I could not wait for morning to come and to leave. The motel is stuck in the 70s and has become decrepit.

Please heed my advice. Do not stay there. Even if everywhere else is booked out do not stay there.

Enjoy my photos!

The check in was ok the place was ok for the price , due to the fact I could not get on a flight back till 2pm and check out was at 10am I asked if was possible to get a late check out was willing to pay if needed they said no which I found that would of made no difference between a hour or 2 but checked out at 10am as they requested because the room needed to be cleaned for that night , wich I didn’t even sleep in the bed just layed on top was as same as I check in ..I checked out ,

Small, clean and nothing to write home about but we expected that. We did not expect to find a sign in the bathroom explaining that showers must be only 5-10min long and that the needs to be a minimum of 5 min wait before expecting any more hot water. Then when I went to shower both my friend and I only got 3-4mins before the water turned completely cold. We even waited 20mins between showers. This is totally unacceptable. We didnt even have time to wash my makeup off, and as I went first I still had soap on me when it went rapidly cold and I had to shower for 90 seconds in totally cold water. Really unimpressed.

We arrived at 1pm only to find the [place locked up like Fort Knox.. Even a man delivery man could not deliver his goods. I rang the after hours bell to no avail and the mobile phone number displayed on the window went to message bank so I left a message which was never answered. When I finally returned to t he motel at around 5pm I found it open and was able to access my room. On the receipt it shows that the Reception Office is closed between 11am and 2pm. This seems a strange time to close down your operation as it is a common time for people to come and book in.

Place was clean, comfortable and roomie but basic. They forgot to put towels in the room so had to request them. Bathroom fan wasn't working either.

Traffic very noisy very early in the morning as not far from a set of lights and main road with lots of trucks. Outdoors gardening needs a bit of TLC as well as quite overgrown.

Place isn't far from Queanbeyan itself and only about 15 minutes from Woden area in Canberra by car. For the price it is perfect for an overnight stay and would use again.

Too small to be a family room, way overpriced

Too small to be advertised as a family room, 3 beds squashed into a small spaced which left no room for bags etc, no where else to sit besides the beds made it a very uncomfortable 5 nights. Nothing modern about the place, bathroom very small and ordinary. Not enough hot water for the family to each have a shower one after another. if ever in Canberra again will definitely shop around.

Their are a lot of other budget hotels in the immediate area. Please avoid this one at all costs.
Owners are rude, un helpful, do not speak english, charged my credit card an extra night, then refused to admit fault and refund my money, even when showing the expedia booking confirmation printout.
Rooms where dirty. Sheets and pillows had stains. Bathrooms where filthy, be prepared to where thongs in the shower. Dead cockroaches found in rooms. Pillows so thing that you may aswell not have had one at all.
