Ashby Holidays from AU$1,425

When I got to the property I was greet with "there is a problem with you booking". The owner was new and was unaware that the motel appeared on the Expedia site. The owner was gracious and did all she could to provide accommodation for the night, although the accommodation was inferior to the accommodation I had booked on Expedia. This seems to be more an Expedia problem than a problem with the proprietors of the motel. The proprietor did all she could in circumstances to help, for which I am grateful.

Very dated and basic room, grossly overpriced for what was received and felt ripped off. Friendly check in and clean, plenty of parking available.

Well located in Grafton, the room was stylish and large. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. The bathroom was large, very clean and well appointed. The room faced onto the road but this didn't matter as there was double glazing so traffic noise was not noticed at all. This is my go-to accommodation in Grafton from now on.

Fantastic breakfast at TOAST espresso

The standard room was clean however, very small and not the 40sq m stated. The ‘kitchen’ did not have crockery, only cups and a microwave and kettle. The bathroom was very tiny and noisey fan. The room was in an old house which was really more hotel/hostel accommodation and you could hear people in other rooms and walking in corridor at night. We were disappointed and the room was certainly like portrayed in the photos.
