Detailed Reviews
Clifford gardens motor inn.
Recently my wife and I stayed at the Clifford gardens motor inn.
Upon arrival the owner was warm and friendly.
The accessible room we were given was reasonable and well kept and reasonably priced.
The owner and his wife were very accommodating and whenever they saw us, they would always check to see if we needed anything and even offered access to Apple TV for the duration of our week long stay.
Upon leaving on the last day ,the owner asked if my wife and I could suggest anything that would improve the rooms.
These are my suggestions.
In the the accessible room I would suggest the following .
>a lowered bench. I would also suggest that both beds either have lockable casters.
>The double bed should be a little lower with power points placed above both side tables.
>The main dinner table should be a bit taller and should have a cut out to accommodate a wheelchair.
>Their also needs to be a small two seater couch as it is difficult to sit up in bed and watch tv if you have issues with posture and back pain.
I also think that it would a good option to have one of the on-site short - medium stay apartments / units made accessible. This would enable those with physical disabilities or ambulatory issues to opt for something bigger then a hotel or motel room if they are needing to stay for a week + or have family staying.
This also gives disabled guests and friends or family the option of cooking meals and sleeping in seperate rooms.
Overall though I can’t fault the Clifford gardens motor inn and I highly recommend that people stay their. Please support these guys as their home style down to earth friendly country service is something you’ll never get at a big hotel or chain/ franchised accommodation.
If I ever got the chance to stay their again I would.I would certainly recommend it as an ideal place for a couples getaway or family holiday.

Recently had an overnight stay at this place! We knew previous owners hence we booked but the new owners had already taken over. New owners were welcoming and had very friendly chat at check in. Room was huge, very clean and facilities in unit were fine. We had pre arranged dinner for that evening but the location is very handy to a shopping centre and various food outlets. Ideal place to stay and noise was not an issue either.

Large and clean bedrooms. Pillows are very comfy. Showers have generous water sprinklers unlike other motels. Complete kitchenette and dishwashing stuff. Fantastic customer service! The owners are friendly and approachable which is 5-stars for me. The location is close to the Toowoomba base hospital and other specialist clinics so you can do more on your time. It has well-designated car park and your car is secure. The cleaner knocked on our door with courtesy to offer anything that we needed as we extended our stay and we didn’t have to worry about calling the reception for new towels. This place offers the best value for money.

We have just stayed at Clifford Gardens Motel for 4 nights for a hockey carnival. When checking in the fellow on reception just asked for money and gave me a key. No confirming my booking with me, no directions for parking, no information whatsoever. The least communication I've ever had checking in anywhere. I had to ask for the invoice. There was no information in the room either, no milk and the bathroom was quite mouldy. Our toilet would not flush at first and the man on reception was helpful though this shouldn't have even been an issue. After a few days we realised the "service" was only the bin being emptied. I had to ask for fresh towels, toilet paper and tea bags. Milk was in reception, I don't understand why you would not provide in room or at least ask on check in. I also had to ask about laundry facilities and on our last night discovered there is Wifi though we haven't been given a password. 2 nights we returned to our parking space taken so I assume they do not explain to any of the guests where to park. Overall it was a room which was all we needed but definitely could no with some improvements especially in regards to customer service.

Our hosts Ronnie & Frank are very hospitable people.
We have a 3 bedroom serviced apartment for my wife and 3 school aged children. It inlcudes a full kitchen, lock up garage plus further undercover parking. Laundry facilities are available to use as is access to a swimming pool. It is conveniently located on the Western side of Toowoomba near to many industrial business parks etc as well as easy access to the CBD. Located directly across the road is the Clifford Gardens shopping centre with major supermarkets and bank branches etc

Easy booking, very welcoming and helpful. Just what we were looking for at a very convenient location. The extra large room was very clean, well-equipped with a full kitchen (much more than we actually needed) and the beds were very comfy. Thank you.

The room was clean spacious and comfortable, a garage was provided with room. The hotel was opposite a shopping centre which was very convenient, although close to the main road, I did not hear any traffic noise. No tissues provided in the room however.

Highly Recommended. This is definitely a place I would come to again if I'm in the area. The room, although not brand, new was excellent due to the very spacious room, bathroom and shower. The queen bed and pillows were good quality and very comfortable (my room also had a single bed). It had everything you need in the kitchen and was directly opposite a large shopping centre. Because I had a longer stay, I was given an Apple TV to use which was greatly appreciated. The management were very helpful and obliging and spent some time sorting out a technical difficulty with the internet. I was also allowed a late checkout due to my work circumstances. Once again, this is a great place to stay.

I was running late for check-in and Reception stayed open an extra 15 minutes so I could collect my keys. Excellent service and great price. Overnight rate is very competitive when I searched for overnight accommodation.

My sisters and I stayed in the 3 bedroom apartment where we had a bedroom each, it was very spacious with a kitchen, the toilet was separate from the bathroom which suited us, the beds were very comfy and had a little back yard area. Motel is situated across from a fantastic shopping centre, has a service station next door and a 24hr McDonalds nearby. Lovely friendly staff who welcomed us with a smile and guided us to the apartment.
