6/10 Okay

Positive but Honest Review – Motel Sunshine Coast I stayed one night at Motel Sunshine Coast after arriving from an international flight. I’ll start by saying the management were absolutely lovely — very welcoming and accommodating. The property is clean and well-maintained, and the location is convenient. However, I do want to point out that while I should have read the listing more carefully, this is truly a motel-style accommodation with shared bathrooms — more like a high-end hostel in terms of layout. If you're expecting a private hotel-style experience, it’s important to note that shared facilities and limited parking are part of the setup. The rooms are quite noisy — not from traffic, but from other guests. You can hear full conversations from the adjoining rooms. I was grateful I had earplugs after my long flight, but light sleepers might struggle with the lack of sound insulation. That said, if you're looking for a clean, well-managed, budget-friendly stay and you're aware of the shared amenities, it could be a good option.

4/10 Poor

Happy to do a review after i receive the refund.
Gary, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Although it’s called a “motel,” it’s more accurately a hostel. The room is extremely basic—just a bed, a fridge, and a few shelves. Noise was a major issue. Doors often slammed throughout the night, and people talked loudly in the early hours of the morning. While I can’t confirm it, I got the impression that some residents had been living there long-term. A few displayed eccentric or antisocial behaviour, which made me wonder whether the place also functions as emergency housing, possibly for individuals with mental health issues. All things considered, it’s not particularly cheap for what you get. I wouldn’t recommend it.
Mutian, 9-night trip

6/10 Okay

Close to bus route and lovely walkway. Right next to a supermarket and other stores. Rooms were nice enough and private, but walls are not soundproof at all. Was kept awake by another guest snoring and others coming and going. Bedding, while clean, had some really unpleasant looking stains on it. Good enough for a budget option.

Great place , nice people 💯
Bronwyn, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

$148 per night for a bed in a room with shared bathroom facilities is outrageous.
Christine, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was clean and tidy with great facilities Full kitchen with everything you needed just had to supply the food although they did supply breakfast cereal and condiments there was everything you needed for the laundry A lounge area complete with pool table Two areas for those of us that smoke and because facilities were shared you got to mingle with other guests So yes loved it
Donna, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

This place was good for the price. Simple but nice enough, had a full kitchen which was handy. The beds were very comfortable and I liked that they had a tv with Netflix in the room, felt a bit more homey.
