Even the linen was quality. I met Olivia first and then James as well the next morning. They were friendly and really made me feel welcome. I will definitely stay there again - going so far as to structure my journeys up and down the coast deliberately to stay with them.

There was nothing to not like. They spoke of getting new linen and adding some of their own touches but I hope they don't change too much because it was easily the best motel room I stayed in in 5 trips up and back Melbourne to Brisbane.

The staff and the facilities were very good. Although it was an older complex it was very functional and clean. The only mark against it, was that it was near a busy road and traffic sound was noisy. Also booking.com said it was close to town centre when it was over 1.25km from it.

Traffic noise.

The location was perfect for our requirements as we were walking to the Cherry Street Sports Club on most days. Avlon Motel is also within walking distance of shopping centres and the Richmond River.

We were a little disappointed that Avlon Gardens did not provide breakfast as advertised on its website.

It was so clean and was actually really nice and the bed was great especially for having a fractured tailbone. The staff she was amazing even though we checked in late, she served with a smile. Would definitely stay again

The only thing that was not good was the wifi, but that was still OK cause we had data on our phones

Friendly greeting and easy check in. Room was clean and well looked after, bathroom was retro and original tiling which I found astounding. Location was handy, we didn’t walk anywhere but it would have been possible. On a busy road but didn’t notice when we closed the windows.

Minor cleaning concern was a section of visible mould in a hard to reach area of the shower door. Conscious it’s the high season but $240 a night seemed excessive for a motel, in saying that conscious that was the going rate in the area when booked under 2 weeks out.

Great spot to stop. Really comfy bed, spacious room and the location is right near the shopping centre. Bathroom is lovely and clean. Mini fridge and microwave in the room as well as plates and cutlery. Undercover parking. The room was quiet overnight and block out blinds made it super dark which was fantastic.

Central to everything, close to facilities and beaches. Room was great spacious and unassuming. It was well stocked with facilities for tea and coffee milk and cutlery cups and glasses and fridge and microwave and Jug.

Liked everything about room and pool

Spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable. Refurbished tastefully where needed. I managed to find myself lost....thanks to Google, the manager helped guide me to avoid taking google back roads and stayed past closing time to check me in.

Very well run Motel . 15 Min walk to town . Clean well maintained units . All usual facilities in good working order.

The bloke who rides his 2 stroke dirt bike past this place at the middle of the night . Other than that no complaints !

The owners Olivia and James were so welcoming and accommodating from arrival to departure. A wonderful motel, very quiet and no noise even from above or sides. Beautifully clean and comfortable and highly recommend Avlon Gardens.

Absolutely not a thing to dislike or be disappointed with.
