Glenlyon Lodge - Gladstone

mainly bathroom, no hot water, leaking toilet (whick the admin staff advised leaked and to turn off at the wall) was quiet annoying. There was shoe prints in the shower and hair throughout the both room. Room aircon missing parts. Floor not cleaned properly.

Family friendly hotel with all the room amenities required. Checking in and out was straightforward and easy.

A bit old but clean

Stayed for work for a few days, was dismayed to see how cheap it was as that doesn't bode well...seems functional at first, double bed, decent bathroom, kettle, microwave...but it was pretty grimey at the edges and worst of all, bedbugs or something in the beds causing itches. I tried to tolerate it, although I was booked in there for two weeks, I simply couldn't stand it and had to leave with rashes everywhere. Had to leave work to wash and dry literally everything i had to get them off. However owners were understanding and accommodating. They thought it was midges, which isn't great anyway, but they did refund when I asked to leave. Other drawbacks is a seriously tight carpark, broken lights, sliding door to adjacent room allowing all sound to come through and long term residents screaming their heads off during the night. However tight the budget, this isn't worth it.

Was convenient and clean just what I needed after a long drive, check in was easy I was arriving after reception closed but the hotel sent me clear instructions on how to access my room would recommend to anyone

Only stayed 20 minutes! Check in is 2-7, Arrived 2:15pm note on office said closed until 3pm. When returning made to wait while she finished her smoke before being served. In the 20 minutes I was there with my son she yelled at someone about their driving and then (I have recorded) screamed at other guests about ***** and their behaviour. Didn’t feel safe left and was told she would refund (booked via travel app, screenshot pics of conversation) our night just chased this up as no refund yet and have now been told she won’t be refunding. Rooms very are run down paint missing, dusty and very sad rooms.

A quiet little gem in the middle of Gladstone. The room was clean (except for the toilet). The appearance is dated, but it felt safe and clean.

Basic but comfortable room. Affordable and served the purpose of a place to sleep and a hot shower before heading over to Heron Island. Staff were easy to deal with and flexible about our late arrival. I don’t think breakfast is available which would be good but no matter we headed off to a local cafe.

The male owner/manager of the Siesta Villa Motel observed me topping up the radiator of my car using the kettle from my motel room. Any and every normal person would understand that this involved holding the kettle above the radiator opening and pouring in water – exactly the same as holding the kettle above a coffee mug and pouring in water and exactly the same as holding the kettle over a sink and pouring out water (e.g. to empty the kettle). Any and every normal person would understand that topping up a car radiator using a kettle would not, and could not, cause any harm or damage to the kettle. There was no contact between the kettle and any part of my car – there was simply no need for the kettle to touch anything. Well, the male owner/manager abused me for using the kettle to top up my radiator. I’m not kidding! He literally abused me in a very hostile way. And he told me to throw out the kettle because it was now contaminated with oil and that I needed to pay him $20.00 to buy a new one. I stress – no part of the kettle had any contact whatsoever with any part of my car. You can picture pouring water from a kettle into a radiator, yes? The male owner/manager of the Siesta Villa Motel is an irrational, illogical, unscrupulous person! In my opinion, this person does not have the intelligence or personality needed to deal with paying customers.
