Don't stay here. Photos and reviews are not accurate. Stayed here for one night for a funeral nearby with my child. Asked for a quiet room (informed all are quiet!). Was allocated a room between two rooms that were obviously night road workers or something similar. The noise was appalling until late at night & again banging and crashing and loud talking again at 530am. The walls are thin, I could hear conversations, toilets flushing and also tv. Beds were soft and uncomfortable. Carpet is old was afraid to go bare foot. Kettle had noodles in them when I tried to use in the morning. Complained to Expedia about the standard & the noise. Reception responded that I should of informed them.. of-course let's walk out in PJs in the middle of night leaving my child alone to find an after hours number to call plus having to walk passed the selfish ignorant neighbours who were outside our motel door. I did not feel safe at all. Reception wasn't open when we checked out at 930am.
There also wasn't any information about security or safety or numbers in the room, I did a thorough search.Avoid this motel. I wish I took pictures in particular reception state, needs a good clean, filing.
Also the road noise is constant all night. I was given room 14.

We stayed at the lodge for 3 nights over Christmas to be close to the family. The room was basic and as expected for a standard motel. The bed was comfortable and air conditioning was good which was much needed during our summer stay. Motel was on the Main Street and dining options were within walking distance. Prices were inflated during our stay due to it being Christmas time, would expect to pay less outside of peak time.

Fast, easy check in. Room was clean and comfortable with fridge, kettle, microwave. Wardrobe, spare blanket and pillows. Good sized room, comfortable bed. Hot shower, good water pressure. Each room has seats outside for personal use. Reception happily let me borrow cutlery and crockery to use during my stay when I asked, no hesitation. Easy 10 min walk from train station. Easy walking distance to supermarkets, shops and eateries. I met three different members of staff all were friendly, polite and very helpful. Happily stored my luggage for me on my last day. Would stay again.

The property was extremely old, looked like there had been little or no renovations for quite some time. We have a 4 Wheel Drive vehicle that wouldn’t fit under the building. We were very worried about leaving our vehicle in the car park as many of the rooms occupants appeared to be permanents. There were people loitering outside rooms & vehicles full of belonging with their doors open & no owner in sight. What you saw on the Website was definitely not what you got.

We had a late check in, which worked fine. They keys to the room were left inside and the door was unlocked.
Although when trying to organised this the staff member we spoke to was very rude.

The room was clean, but there was a gross smell of poop in the air, trying to be masked by disinfectant we suspected the drains as everytime we ran the water it would get worse.

Parking is on-site and infront of your room which was good. The building is a little dated. But well priced for what it is.

There was a very friendly cat on the property.

We were welcomed warmly by the motelier, despite our late arrival and last minute booking through hotels.com. It’s a courtyard motel, free parking outside room, on the main road, uphill from Nambour town centre. We heard no traffic noise in our room.
Our room was very clean, our bed was comfortable; the TV and air-con worked well. A small frig and hospitality tray were provided. There was a breakfast table with two chairs. I suspect that the rooms have been refitted recently with new carpet and furniture. Another bench or stand for a suitcase would be useful, a minor detail, no problem for an overnight stay. The bathroom, likewise, looked very new. The walk-in shower was very good; vanity was in the bathroom.
We had a delicious meal at a nearby Thai restaurant. Several nearby restaurants offer delivery to the motel.

Four day stay in Nambour.

This is an older style motel, but it's very central. Walking distance to all shops, major supermarket and shopping centre. Our unit was clean and tidy, well maintained, with a comfortable bed. Owner was obliging with any requests.
We stayed for 4 nights, and used it as a central base to explore the Sunshine Coast. (Nambour is only about 15-30 minutes to everywhere in the area!)
Really only criticism was that the Foxtel
wasn't working.

My son and I stayed the night on our way up the coast. I knew that we wouldn’t get there until after reception closed so I called after I booked and was asked to call prior to reception close the night of our stay. They were so helpful with our 9.30pm arrival making alternate arrangements for us. The room was spotlessly clean with a seemingly recently redone bathroom. It was all we needed for the night - a clean, comfortable stopover.
