The property is very dated and in need of updating.
The shower head wouldn't stay up when the water was turned on and leaked st the swivel joint, I reported this but nothing was done to fix the issue. The microwave turntable didn't function properly, I also reported this but again nothing was done about it.

Overall a disappointing experience and couldn't recommend staying at this property.

The room was a decent size, clean, and comfortable for the duration of the stay. The bathroom was also a good size. The carpet in the room had some stains, which I have also noticed at several other hotels during my travels in Australia. Check-in was smooth, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

The only downside to my experience was a disturbance next door late at night, when a woman began banging on a neighbouring room’s door and appeared to be attempting to force her way inside. It seemed to be a personal dispute, my best bet that she caught the male party cheating on her with another woman. This woman was not the one the male was sitting outside with when I checked in. White trash – junkies at their best.

There is limited parking available on site.

⭐ 1/5 – Very disappointing and unsafe stay

We stayed at Mahogany Motel for two nights and had a very poor experience.

All the mattresses were completely worn out and broken, sagging badly into a V shape, which made sleeping extremely uncomfortable.

More concerning, we found a dangerous bug under the pillow, which terrified my family and raised serious concerns about cleanliness and pest control.

The electric kettle was filthy and unhygienic. It appeared to have been used for boiling eggs, with egg residue stuck to the heating rod and sides. This is unacceptable and poses a health risk.

Overall, the room was poorly maintained, unhygienic, and unsafe. I would not recommend this motel to families or anyone expecting basic standards of cleanliness and comfort.

We stayed in a tiny room that was very well equipped but dark, crowded and uninviting. Everything worked ok, the shower was great, but nothing was very nice to look at. The toilet kept a steady trickle of water running all the time, which is wasteful and noisy. There is a major road outside so it was not quiet, but not very noisy either. There are petrol stations very close by where you can get coffee and basic produce, otherwise you need to go to town

I booked this place last minute based on the reviews--it was dingy, dirty, and I probably should've just left, but it was late, and I knew I would be leaving early in the morning. The bed was clean, but the sheet that's supposed to be a fitted sheet kept coming off. The room was dark, dirty (the chairs were not cleaned), so I didn't want to touch anything. It's an old motel, there was garbage all over the property, and I didn't feel safe there. Thankfully, it was just for a handful of hours.

Overnight transit stop

Overnight stop between Melbourne and Mt. Gambier. Chose the motel on basis of price and location----on the map it looked central but coming from railway station and not being able to get a taxi it was a long walk. The guy on reception was helpful with my needs and amenities were ok . Very comfortable bed. They had breakfast available but my check-in was too late to order one.
