My wife and I stayed in the motel for two nights over the weekend and stayed in a queen budget room. We choose this motel from the good reviews and its location to the venues we had to go to. The check in and check out was easy and the lady was very helpful and friendly. The room itself was... More

Stayed here for two nights with work and found this motel had everything we needed. The room was spacious enough and had the essentials as well as a microwave which I don't normally come across in a motel. TV was good size, bed was comfortable and dinner excellent. After reading the reviews about the staff I have to agree that... More

Only stayed 1 night on our way to Maryborough, room adequate but not for long stays. $103 too dear for what we got, no special points. Nice lady at check-in & check-in was easy. Pub & restaurants in easy walking distance.

Great little motel, have stayed here a few times. if you are looking for somewhere to stay thats clean and tidy and wont cost a fortune and still has great service, this is the place, plus its very close to everything. the people who run the place are friendly, courteous and just plain nice.

I stayed three nights at the Downs Motel. I found it be a convenient location and Petula, the manager, was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, neat and very quiet and the breakfasts good value and tasty. No negatives at all and I would certainly stay there again.

On your arrival you are greeted by 2 of the most friendliest hosts you will ever come across. They even invited us to join them for a drink at the end of the day. Nothing was too much trouble, they were quite accommodating for us. The rooms were fantastic and cleaned on a daily basis. Within walking distance of food... More

Arranging an after-midnight arrival at a small motel isn't always this easy. And don't we seasoned travellers appreciate it when it is! Petula's warm & gracious attitude is what makes The Downs the little gem it is. This is a small, modestly priced family run motel tucked away in a shopping centre & easy to miss in a sea of... More

We stayed here for one night and it was great value for money. We checked in at 8.30pm and the lovely hostess was ready and waiting for us. She was so helpful, telling us about local restaurants and shops. The breakfast was yummy and the furniture was modern and clean. Digital tv in room and heater/air con. Not fancy, but... More

I'd never stayed in a Shopping Centre before I stayed here, had to take a second look driving in but yep, it's in the middle of the shopping centre. A nice little place, the hosts greeted us as we walked into the reception introduced herself and offered both myself and my girlfriend a complimentary cold drink from the fridge and... More

My wife and I stayed here for 1 night for convenience as we came to explore Toowoomba for a couple of days. The room was ok, definitely not 5 star luxury but good enough for what we needed. The bed was very springy and felt old. The room decor could be down with an upgrade and the tv reception, especially... More
