Review of Opal Motel
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 17 Dec 2018via mobile
Rooms were clean. Has what you need for a nights stay. Wifi was too slow i didn’t even bother using it. The bed is what ruined my whole stay. Every movement i made would make a loud squeaky noise which in turn kept waking my friend who was sleeping in the other bed next to me.

    This Motel is a hidden gem in the outskirts of Leongatha. It is a small motel with only 12 rooms, it is clean and tidy, beds are comfortable.Best to go on Weekend visit as frequented by Tradies on Weekdays. Don't let looks deceive you as it is a quiet and restful place to lay your head. it had a full sized fridge in our room,micro wave,plus the normal tea and coffee facilities. There is a small down side which was the bathroom which had a small barn door between the toilet and the sink.The Manager/Owner is friendly and very obliging,nothing is a bother to him. Does not have a restaurant but you can always pick up breakfast down the road at local cafes or in desperation McDonalds.

    Room tip: The higher the room number the further away from the front of the Motel you are

    Good for the stop to Melbourne. A little bit old, but clean. Comfortable. Staff is very friendly. The rooms are normal equipped. Perhaps better price by direct booking possible. Good ventilator in the night!

    I absolutely loved this motel. It was like stepping back into the 1970-80s. I loved the shag pile carpet, the sectioned off bathroom, vanity and toilet.
    The nice gentleman who took my late night booking and trusted me to pay the reasonable rate in the morning before i left.
    I would definitely stay here again.

    We were welcomed by friendly and helpful owners. The rooms were comfortable and clean. There is a nice BBQ area in the shade with grass where the kids could play. We'd be happy to stay again next time we are in Leongatha.

    Yes this place is slightly outdated, however it offers all you need for a nights stay, hot water, aircon, internet, iron, tv etc. Great view from outside the rooms. About a 15 min walk to the pub and restaurants. Staff are friendly and great assistance.
