Golden Age Motor Inn Queanbeyan
Very clean room with all the amenities and a modern bathroom. Only issue I faced was the light coming from under the door, but that was a minor thing.

River Motel
Rooms were very clean and perfect for what we needed. Very close to the airport. Only fault we found was the light that comes into the rooms of a night. Block out blinds would be good as bed closest to the window is like sleeping in daylight.
