Cheap to a whole new level. Reception not open at check-in or at any time really, need to ring for assistance. Fridge turned off, aircon remote batteries removed, therefore need to turn on and fit batteries to start these appliances.
Microwave looked great until you press the start button which doesn't press to start.
No bedside lamps or light switches so you need to get out of bed to turn switch off. Our room had 1 ceiling light working out of the 2 (2nd switch was missing) and 1 floor lamp.
The positives are, good bed, full size fridge, a couch and table and chairs, in reasonable condition. For a hotel room, they had plates, cutlery, glasses including tea towel and washing liquid which was a help.
We also left our phone chargers behind, when i rang the next day, they had them, but, they are too busy to take to Post Office to send to me, (even though i was paying for postage)and i would have to come pick them up. Doh! I live hours away, hence needing a Motel for 2 nights.
Im never going cheap again, here at Tweed Central Motel or anywhere else.

Very disappointed with this stay and would not return.

The property advertised staffed reception from 2pm onwards and optional contactless check-in/check-out. We arrived around 4:45pm and reception was unattended, with no contactless check-in available. I instead had to call a phone number taped to the reception door for someone to attend.

The room also did not match the listing in several significant ways. The “king room” was not a true king bed but two single beds pushed together. The room advertised a balcony, however the room provided was ground floor with only a sliding glass door. Mobile key entry was advertised but a physical key was provided instead.

The room itself was poorly maintained. The mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, there was only a top sheet on the bed with no quilt or blankets, and the bathroom appeared to have black mould issues with an old mouldy shower curtain instead of the glass screen shown in photos. The shower plumbing made loud banging noises and the hot water became dangerously hot almost immediately.

The fridge was switched off, unstable, and had damaged seals. The TV was very slow and did not include the advertised premium channels. The room was also clearly not soundproof as advertised, as noise from nearby guests could easily be heard throughout the night.

Overall, the room did not match the advertised listing and raised genuine cleanliness, maintenance, and safety concerns.

Access to shops extremely good with Tweed Mall just five minutes' walk across the road. Air con worked well. Staff quite helpful particularly having arrived very late and well after reception had closed. Room very clean. However, the furniture in the room was very tired. Bed very light and moved when sat on. Drawers missing from cabinets and I had to get out of bed to turn off the lights - no bedside lights provided. Price was reasonable though considering only a few hours stay with10am strict checkout.

Check was fairly quick and seamless although reception was all locked up at 3:00 on a Saturday. We received a complementary can of drink on arrival. The room was straight out of the early 80's and was fairly run down but would be a renovators delight. However, you get what you paid for and we only needed it for a place to sleep after going to a show at Twin Towns just up the road. They did allow us a bit of a late check out though.

I did not enjoy this stay and I have stayed in lots of motels recently. I contacted the property prior to booking as I had interstate travel and needed a late check in. When I arrived off my flight they didn’t send any details. Upon arrival to motel a man came out of the darkness to hand me a key. The fridge was wide open and I didn’t realise it wasn’t turned on until the morning, which meant my food was unedible. Shivering through the night to realise there was no blanket? Shower leaking til morning. Asked kindly for half hour late check out due to lack of sleep and man waiting outside door at 10.28am. Not a friendly service, no apologies or empathy.

Property managers were friendly and assisted with things we needed when asked. However, We booked for 3 beds but only got two. Fortunately, we brought an air mattress with us. The smoke alarm was not mounted to the ceiling and was just placed on top of a wardrobe. The aircon filters had about 3-5mm of dust and grime built up. There was a smell from a cheap commercial cleaner/ or deorderiser that wasn't pleasant. Face washer had yellow stains on it, but towels were clean. A lose tile was lying on the floor in the bathroom. there are a bout 21 units but far less car parks. We parked out on the road the first night...fortunately there's police station next door that we parked in front of. That being said its right across the road from shops like Woolies and Coles. Short walk or drive to Twin Towns or a little further to the beach.

This was the worst place we stayed in Queensland, many fixtures broken and they'd even taken lightbulbs out to save on electricity, the air conditioning unit was noisy and took a very long time to cool the room. We booked a King room for two adults and a child, when we booked it said rollaway beds were available. However, when we got there, there was only a King bed even though we'd booked and paid for two adults and a child. Spoke to Expedia who said they should provide for that many people, and fought very hard to get the motel owners to refund the booking on arrival. But the owners wouldn't budge, very tight fisted, terrible service and overall the place was a dive. The only positive I can think of us the high water pressure in the shower, but this is because it has fixtures from the 80s, and based on the money grubbing owners, it's because they don't want to replace anything. We had to cram three of us in one bed.Every other place for the same price was fantastic, I suspect some reviews are fake and made up. This place should be a 1 out of 10 and comparable to third world accommodations. Stay here at your peril!

I booked my stay over 3 months prior to arriving and after driving 1200klm I found that they had cancelled my booking through Wotif even though I was assured that NO CONFIRMATION was required. There was actually something large happening in Tweed Heads as we checked 11 other facilities and they were all fully booked. The staff offered NO assistance at all and made out that we hadn't booked but I showed them my Wotif confirmation and all he said was - I have no booking. Wotif should drop this property off your list as it is your reputation that is now shattered as I am going to complain to everyone I can as we ended up sleeping in our car for a night and at 67 and 63, that was not a wonderful experience.

We were not the only ones. Perhaps as it's so near the border, checkout couldbe 11am NSW time in daylight savings. It would save the rude awakening and the staff frustration atcalot of guests forgetting time difference. I'm sure they must get this daily
