No-one was there to check me in though I arrived before 5 pm. No prior communication from them. And they didn't answer the phone. After waiting for over half an hour I had to find alternative accommodation at the last minute. Poor service? No service at all!

This property is on the main road yet very quiet at night - hard to hear any road noise - on-site parking - considerate extra touches such as umbrellas put out on a rainy day for guests - clean fresh linen - lovely blankets for cooler nights - plenty of in room touches such as crockery - toaster - microwave - fridge - good walk in shower - Decent sized wardrobe for clothes - right next to a great Swiss restaurant and pizzeria - and right next door on the other side is the easy access to the famous Yungaburra Saturday markets - easy online check in and out -

Ok, but no Amex
Good hotel, the lady on reception was nice, but the owners are too stingy to accept American Express, which is pretty much a standard for travellers.

Hi David, I am pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Unfortunately AMEX just makes it too expensive for us to use, it just doesn't make good business sense which I think allot of small businesses agree.

Yay for Yungaburra!
We loved it at the Yungaburra Park Motel - charming inside and out. Very well equipped and located. A short walk to cafes, restaurants, hotels and village services. Yungaburra has a great vibe - rustic charm, art ambience, something for everyone, all ages. And it is only a short drive to lakes and tableland attractions.

Close to the centre of Yungaburra, it was a convenient place to stay. The Hotel was nothing special, our bed was extremely uncomfortable with bed springs popping every time you moved. Dropped my keys behind the bed and was shocked to find a herd of dust bunnies underneath it also found $4.75 in coins under the couch.

Well it looks like you hit the jackpot finding money which would certainly buy you a free coffee. As for the mattresses I am surprised by your comment as we normally don't get complaints. Would have helped if you mentioned which room so we could investigate. The hotel is only rated as 3 stars and good value for money. It is special to us. We are sorry it did not meet up to your expectations. Regards Rob & Debbie.

very surprised to hear your comments. All our beds are of medium comfort. Not to hard and not to soft for people with back problems. Most people say it is the best night sleep they have had in a long time.Which is pleasing as we always try to make sure our guests get the most out of their stay. As for the T.V. If you could of let us know we would have rectified the problem promptly. Sorry all was not to your liking. Rob & Debbie

Good location
A good location, backs onto the parkland where the Yungaburra Markets are held. The Markets are held the fourth Saturday of the Month. Can walk to all cafes, restaurants & shops. Close to the start of a really great nature walk around Yungaburra . Rooms are very clean and contain a fridge, microwave, plates, cutlery, tea & coffee as well. The rooms are quite large with TV and free wi-fi. Great base to explore the Tablelands with weather being a bit cool still for September.
