Just don’t!!!! Unsafe and dodgy! Full of dept of housing permanent residents. They have their personal crap scattered the full length of the motel in the driveways and all the tables outside the rooms…scooters, bikes, soccer balls, clothing, dirty plates, cutlery…. First room we were given reeked of cigarette smoke. Next room was next door to loud screaming residents with wailing children. Listened to their crap all night and got no sleep. Should have read reviews for this place… I’ve travelled a lot and never come across anything quite like it! Got out of there at sun up… never to return.
Should have read the reviews!! Just the sight of the place made me rethink my booking. Nothing like the photos.
The car park was strewn with rubbish and gardens over grown. There was a dog tied to a pole 2 doors down and the smell of wet dog and poo was in our room. The language from the people in the next room was atrocious and kids screaming.
The room was very basic and the blanket was stained and old. Fly Screens were ripped.
It was only for 1 night but there was no way I was letting my family stay there. We packed our car and left. There was no one in office so left the key on the counter and walked away.
Rang the office and apparently the other people there are department of housing residents
The room was not very clean, some power points, lights not working. The shelf over the bathroom sink had collapsed making the sink difficult to use. Our room was "around the back", next to an overflowing skip bin, strange comings and goings during the night. We left early as we could. The room was very cheap, I guess you get what you pay for.
Room is clean and tidy.
Shower temperature is difficult to regulate since the hot water pressure is weak.
Couldn't really enjoy sitting outside, since beggars are allowed on the promises.
There are some people and places that should not be allowed to own/be hotels.
Meet the not-so-good folks at the Acacia.
Positively disgraceful in all aspects.
I work in sales and have experience staying in many hotels in Armidale where at the least the service has been accommodating. This is not one of them.
Incidentally don’t try calling them - I was told by the managers that they don’t use the phone.
Well - good luck with that.
They really should introduce a zero rating here.
