Reception was closed at 5:45pm despite advertising office hours were until 6:00pm. A girl eventually came and opened the door. She was rude and implied I should have a code. I explained I had not recieved any text regarding a code. After checking in the office she said there was a mix up and handed me a key.
Unit 23 - everything smelt like cigarette smoke. The walls, the front entrance to room, the beds and the curtains
There were small cockroaches on the study desk and on the kitchenette benches and walls.
The pool did not look inviting at all. Bit drab and run down and dirty marks on the sides where water level sits.
Unit 25 was open and looked abandoned and a mess when we arrived. Made me suspicious of staying at this motel to begin with. Not familiar with Chinchilla and surrounding areas, this did not set a good intro to the town.

A little thing was that there was no small bottle of detergent, necessary if staying longer than a few days and
The Pool was very unsafe no rail down the steps, broken bricks (needs new tiling), frogs/toads in the pool.

We’re a family of 5. The kids could go outside and play, kick a ball or have a swim. The room was large enough to accommodate 4 beds with ample room to move around. The kitchenette was sufficient for us to make toast for breakfast saving us on restaurant bills. We would happily return here on our next visit to Chinchilla.

Comfortable room. Very kind staff. Equipment worked well - TV, air con, refrigerator. Appreciated the two bottles of water.
No towels or washers in room - but got them at the front desk. Had a broken glass which we turned into the office.

The Great Western Motor Inn is located on edge of town just off the highway - but is quiet and rooms are spacious.
