“Glad we only stayed for one night”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

Following a great week in Broadbeach, we didnt expect much, but were shocked at the low standard of the room we had. There appeared to be a nice new accomodation block opposite the pool, but as we only stayed for one night I guess they throught the old block would be fine. The room was small with two single beds. It reminded us of the 70's with its short orange curtains. We were on the ground floor so noise from other guests arriving at all hours kept us awake, as did the fridge and trains. But on a positive note, it's handy to the railway station and there's a good club across the road which offers great value food and drinks. We won't be staying again, we saw other motels in the same area which looked a lot better.

“3 perfect Stays”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

What a fantastic motel, spotlessly clean, the friendliest and most helpful staff. Perfect for a one night stop-over, my family and I were so comfortable and wouldn't stay at any other airport motel. We have stayed in a queen bed room in the back section, and a queen+single bed room in the front section and were happy in both and slept well. We walked over to the local bowls club for a bistro dinner and had a lovely meal. If you want a 5 star hotel with all the pompous trimmings, then this place is definitely not for you, but if you want a quiet, clean, comfortable stay, then this place is for you!! Thank you Shauna, we will be back!!

“Good airport stop over.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2011

person found this review helpful

I stayed here one night before flying out of Brisbane. Very handy to train station just across the road, so I was able to go into town for a few hours I had spare in the afternoon. Be aware it is not a main terminal so the trains only run every hour. I arrived early and as my room was ready, they allowed me to check in straight away, which was very convenient, I found staff most helpful. The room is clean with everything I needed for the one night, taxi ride to airport about $25 the next morning.

I would stay here again.

“Decent comfortable 3 star close to airport area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 April 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Traveled to Brisbane for business for 2 nights. Due to work location I looked at the Ascot area to avoid the drive all the way to the city. I chose Airway based on the reviews here and the price relative to the competition.

Friendly staff, off street parking and good location for those doing business in the airport area. A number of night time food options via short 5 min drive to Racecourse road or the local bowling club which is about 2 mins walk.

Inside and outside, the rooms are an interesting juxtaposition of exactly what you might imagine a 50 something year old motel to look like, but with decent carpet, a lick of paint, new bathroom and a flat screen tv. Furniture is dated, but personally i would rather find my room to have a nice bathroom over a new desk. Room was clean and quite large with plenty of work space. Bed was a full size queen and was comfy, mattress was neither soft nor hard.

I would agree with the other reviews posted here but can't comment on the traffic noise as I arrived back late each night. However, i did find the trains were a little noisy first thing in the morning and as late as 12.00am as the motel is directly across the road from a train line. The pool filter box made a lot of gurgling sounds all night long (my room was right next to pool) but I always travel with earplugs for such issues, so not a big deal for myself and would not prevent me from staying again.

All in all, given prices in Brisbane this place is good value and very acceptable, i would recommend it if you are a looking for no-frills accom for a stopover / work trip and you have no particular desire to be in the city/valley area every night. If you are looking for a place to sleep in or for long hours i might suggest elsewhere if noise is going to be an issue for you.

Room Tip: No internet connection available, bring your 3G!!
