It was convenient for us as we were visiting people in the area and were only staying for one night. The entrance/exit to the motel is on a sweeping bend on a busy road so getting in and out is a bit of a hazard. It looks as though the rooms are gradually being painted and refurbished. Our room was... More

The motel looked dodgy, but being the only one around(that we could find) had no choice but to stay. The tariff was $125.50, to which my husband hopefully asked"does that include breakfast?"Of course not. The room seemed clean, and relatively quiet but the facilities were woeful- old TV with dodgy reception, bathroom in bad repair, wobbly table etc. All we... More

This motel is the only motel on road from stanwell tops to outskirts of Wollongong. No money has been spent on maintaining property, rooms are dirty, carpet lifting, filthy, bed shocking, Paid $115 for double room - worth $70 at best. Staff helpful enough and location good (if on main road), but still not worth staying here. More

This is a fairly old, run down motel on the main road in Thirroull, and is noisy particularly if you are not lucky enough to have a room at the back of the place.Beware also,as only a few rooms have air conditioning, but still beware if yours is one of them. Two rooms away my friends did have an A/C... More

After reading awful reviews we were a bit worried but didnt have any choice as we needed to stay in the location & didnt have time to look around. Walking distance to shops, large rooms, good shower, comfy bed, have stayed in a lot worse so no major complaints, it is what it is. For us this was a room... More

We went to a wedding this weekend and left it until the last minute to find somewhere to stay. They were fully booked and ended up calling us about a cancellation. It was $115 for the night and got us out of a bind. It's not flash for sure and suffers from the 70s pastel disease. It was clean enough... More

We stayed at the Thirroul beach motel for 2 nights. On both of the occasions we went to the reception there was no one there which made it difficult to check in.We opened up the room which was clean looking and quite spacious. The bed sheets however did smell particularly clean and the mattress was obviouldy very old with springs... More

The Thirroul Beach Motel is a disgrace and one wonders how any health department allows it to continue to operate. Seven years ago I had the misfortune to spend a few days there during a holiday period when accommodation in the area was at a premium. During that time I was moved three times, each room being worse than the... More
