Excellent

Quite rundown and very minimal furnishings. Front desk people were fine and courteous. the location was just fine for what we were choosing to do (walk around your state grounds). The p rice was fine for what we got, Age and deteriorated rooms are the problem with this facility. It wouldnt take a lot to add a bit of sparkle and get rid of the musty smells.

This is a very old motel - it was clean except or the carpets - I have allergies and it was terrible! The motel is very old - although the bedding and towels etc were clean - needs updated with carpet removal

Liked: Room comfort
The rooms were comfortable. However the shower head dripped, and the when we turned on the spa jets, bits of things came out. So we couldnāt use it and had to shower instead.

Good location, walking distance to Echo point. Family room was good size (1 queen, 2 singles) and included a table with 4 chairs. Decor is quite dated and could do with a spruce up, but many Katoomba hotels are similar. Bathroom clean and good shower. Fridge needed a defrost and clean.
