My partner and I spent two nights in Mid June 2025 in Brookby Motel since I wanted to stay close by the hospital.|The other customer reviews were glowing - I was a bit skeptical. I was wrong!||The 1 bedroom apartment was superbly clean, very well appointed. The decor is very pleasant: restful, light, pleasantly decorated. ||The kitchen is well supplied with coffee plunger and sachets of tea, coffee, Milo, and milk, etc Recycling and rubbish is well organised with good information.||The layout works well: there is a sitting-dining area integrated into the kitchen with a spacious bathroom that is also well appointed.

The place offers real value for money in comparison to the other hotels we have stayed at during our stay in...
Read moreI'm not one to usually write reviews but am moved to do so in this instance by the standard of this motel in terms of both the accommodation and the service it offers. From the making of our reservation through to our check out Keith and Yvonne were the most congenial of hosts and the unit we had was impeccably presented. The location is only a short walk from the town centre and, being away from the traffic was very quiet, allowing full appreciation of the sound of the brook running behind the property. The overall appearance of the grounds and units was very tidy, indicating the pride and care Keith and Judy obviously take in the service they provide. The brochure in the room recording the history of the property and surrounding area was most interesting - an added bonus. Highly...
