The hotel is very good, stayed for two months. Gungahlin life is very convenient, nearby Coles, Aldi, Woolworths, Bunning Warehouse, Kmart, BigW supermarket, shopping is convenient. There is also a light rail and convenient transportation. There is also a lake with ducks, black swans, and beautiful natural scenery. Love Gungahlin here. If you study abroad and immigrate here in Australia, you can take the PTE test. I'm trying to take the PTE test now. Friends who need information can contact me, WeChat tutehub.

Good hotel. The room was a reasonable size considering that this is a budget hotel, the ensuite toilet and shower are small but adequate. It is a bit out of town but fine if you have a car (probably public transport is available nearby, I did not check). They don't have a restaurant but you can buy a frozen meal from reception and heat it in a microwave if you like (continental breakfast can also be bought, I didn't try it).

We knew this was one of the cheaper motels in Canberra - so didn’t expect the Ritz, but there were a few things that were just frustrating and make for a 3 star review. Between 2 couples we had 2 rooms, a twin Room that had 2 Double beds, and a family room that had a Queen Bed and bunks. For a four night stay the family room was definitely the preferable of the two as it was larger, lighter, and better equipped. The positives: Price, and the rooms were generally clean, the beds were comfortable. The outside area is simple but clean and tidy, no graffiti or anything. Good showers with lots of hot water. Surprisingly quiet given distance from main highway, and walking distance to a train stop. The negatives: The twin room was far too small to comfortably accomodate more than one couple. Although it came with a microwave / jug / toaster & cutlery & crockery it didn’t have anything required for actually using the microwave. No big bowl / microwave dish or anything, also no detergent or dishcloth - and although we asked these never appeared. So washing dishes is basically rinsing them in the bathroom hand-basin. Lighting was also appalling in the downstairs twin room, too dim at night to read anything as no overhead lighting. The shower also was missing a curtain so it was impossible to shower without drowning the whole bathroom. The family room was much better appointed and had a genuine kitchenette with everything required for both microwave and cook-top and its own sink + detergent. However the room STUNK of stale cigarette smoke so clearly the “No smoking sign” is often ignored. The doona cover was completely revolting in how badly it smelt of cigarettes - we did get this changed on request but it makes me wonder how often the covers are routinely changed. there is a free laundry with washer and dryer, but washer has some issues and it took 4+hrs to finish a cycle and let us get our washing out. Would be fine for a 1-2 night stay - but I wouldn’t do a 4 night stay here again.

Stayed there for 3 nights this week as I was running a training course in the Dining Hall. The staff were exceptional, couldn't do enough, available whenever for any query. The Dining Hall was heated, large enough to keep socially distant for a group of 16. Took me a day to find the light switches but I could have asked. Sanitiser was provided, large screen TV including cables. Only 1 toilet for group, but it wasn't an issue. Villa room accommodation was fine, no idea of cost as company paid, 2 bedrooms with full kitchen next door to dining hall. Clean, appealing, every thing I needed was there. Comfy lounges, large dining table enough to work and eat, seated 6. Vehranda with table and large seat. Parking out front. Leaking tap which I remembered to mention at the end and was told I should have said and they would have fixed it. Nothing was too much trouble. A lick of paint would be perfect and I noted this happening progressively with empty villas.

Liked · This hotel is in a fantastic location - walking distance to a supermarket and many cafes/restaurants. It is also only minutes from the CBD and most main attractions. The beds were comfy and the room was of decent size with the added bonus of air conditioning. Disliked · Unfortunately, this is in bad need of an upgrade. The bathroom was terrible, and not terribly clean. There were 3 of us staying with one bar of soap. Admittedly, upon check-in I was told I could go back and ask for more - but it should be there in the first place. There was no shampoo or conditioner, which is often standard even in budget hotels. Nor were there enough classes or mugs for the 3 of us staying.

I've stayed in some dodgy places but none compared to this motel. Booked 3 rooms for a work trip to Canberra thinking we were going to arrive at the Taj Mahal, weren't we sadly mistaken. We arrived in one room to find the ”cleaner” had forgotten to pop the toilet seat back on the toilet (which wasn't clean by the way) no biggie, but the rooms were FILTHY! My college actually cleaned all the grime and black stuff off the coffee table with a cloth. The lounge was full of crumbs, ash and cigarette filters. Also stained with some questionable white stuff. The room had a dampness to it. That was only 1 room! The others were full of mould in the showers, around the provided body washes in the shower and the thickest soap scum left on the soap holder and a bathroom light that flickered like you were at some dodge rave party. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR KETTLES! My work mates kettle was full of black mould and grime..it wasn't stained that colour as she could wipe it easily with her finger. The carpets were atrocious in all rooms, damp and smelly, stained with white patches and also the rooms had a thick odour to it. I am not one to worry about where i sleep, as long as i have a clean bed, but even that was questionable. We stayed one night and couldn't deal with it any longer (getting locked in the bathroom and being locked OUT of the bathroom was the final straw) we booked somewhere else where we enjoyed the rest of our trip. Points to the Manager who was lovely, and clearly embarrassed as she had apparently just started working there. But seriously, the level of cleanliness was a joke. Half a star!!!!!

I had to attend a funeral in Canberra and a friend recommended this YMCA (Leumeah Lodge) in suburb of Nicholls, handy to that side of the city off the Barton Highway. This accommodation is very new. If your GPS is old, then No. 48 is not on it! It is located opposite McDonalds and behind KFC. It is lovely, spotless, nicely appointed with very helpful, friendly Reception staff. There are 58 (differing) and all non-smoking, rooms to suit most, including bunkbed rooms used by school groups. As a single, I chose the ”Queen” perfectly adequate for a couple - the room, bathroom and shower all spacious, with toiletries and hair dryer provided; the double bed was very comfortable. Air Conditioning and WiFi available with a wall mounted TV, tea/coffee bags & a kettle. There are dining facilities only for Groups but you can order a Breakfast Box the night before from Reception. Parking is available. This Lodge is far superior to many hotels I've stayed in and the cost far less! It was amazingly quiet overnight (a Thursday). I recommend this accommodation.

The accommodation is very good. -There are supermarkets, coles and Woolworths around. Fast food has KFC McDonald's for basic breakfast needs. -The surrounding area is not downtown, it feels convenient to have a car. It is about ten minutes away from the city by car. Parking is free, which is great. -Average service attitude, check in and check out are all Indians. -The room is clean and tidy enough, and the room is comfortable and good value for money. Washing clothes can be done in washing clothes, washing powder 2 knives, washing clothes 3 knives, forget to dry, never used. The selected room type has a small balcony, which is great.

We booked in advance a family room with a king bed and two bunks. Upon arrival we were given a room that had two double beds, the configuration we booked was not available. The room stunk of smoke and was just so smelly we couldn’t stay in it. We asked management that we have the room we booked and paid for. They stated that they were unable to provide us the room we booked as there were no free rooms as a youth conference was on at this time as well and all rooms were taken. We did manage to get the disabled room after negotiation and were delighted it didn’t stink. But the problems kept appearing.. the taps in the shower fell off the wall when you had a shower, the bathroom flooded every time we showered, so my husband made an essential towel drainage solution so we could shower without flooding the bathroom. Youth conference participants turned there music on at midnight and again at 6am, next door which we could clearly hear the walls were not sound proof and the curtains had holes in them.. The overall feel I got was one of total neglect. The gardens were overgrown, paint was peeling off the outdoor and indoor spaces and in general it was a very depressing place to stay. Certainly would not ever pay for this experience again! As it was Easter nothing else was available so we put up with it but I would never return and would not recommend anyone book at this hotel unless you are absolutely desperate.

It’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good, it’s quite good. very good
