Check-in was quick, easy and welcoming. Our underground room was meticulously clean, a comfortable temperature and very quiet. The shared kitchen was generously set up and roomy, with plenty of crockery and appliances and the staff were very helpful and friendly - as well as understanding and generous about an accidental breakage in our shower. It is an excellent place to stay while you explore this fascinating town.

The managers/owners are lovely and the room was great, with plenty of room and amenities. Great views from the front of the hotel and on top of it too. Loved our stay

The Underground Motel is a unique place to stay as you are underground. I was picked up and dropped off at the airport. The rooms are cleaning and the couple who run it are very friendly and helpful.

We arrived late and everything was laid out for us in terms of instructions. Small room that had a shared communal kitchen was little sad but still worked for us. More asking people to be considerate of their fellow guests didn’t make any difference and the bedroom backed on to carport which was also quite loud. Enjoyed the underground experience which is what we were after, great views and awesome concept

The obvious special quality was being underground. 23degrees all day and night. Well finished with some art works. And a helpful generous manager.

Reasonable if not for noisy guests
The place is clean, decent bathroom. Bed was a little tired but ok. Parking ok right outside the door and not a bad view from the common patio area out front. The down side is that the common hallway to rooms is like an echo chamber. Unfortunately we were there at the same time as another group of noisy, ignorant and thoughtless families which made for a sleepless night.

Unique experience - the room was a great size and the amenities were good. It was a little too warm at night for us and would have been good to have had the option of air con in our room.

Erin and husband are fantastic managers of this property. She took great care of us, even baking us banana bread and shuttling us back and forth from the airport. The unit was very clean and uniquely underground. I highly recommend the Underground Motel!!

Really pleasant stay
Really nice facility and cool that you live inside of a hill. The owner is super friendly and helpful, which made the stay even more comfortable 😄 Only small downside is that the wifi sometimes drops. But generally there's a good connection.
