Cheaper accommodation if you are not fussed about the room being basic and a touch old. We only stayed 1 night, so it was fine for us.

The service from the manager very exceptional and we had a great chat about cricket (both our teams lost unlosable tests a couple of days later lol). The room itself was quite good, WiFi worked and I was able to connect the TV to other devices well. No issues with the bed. The shower worked well. Probably needs a different style vent system up the top. Very easy walk into town and no road noise. A pleasant experience.

Location location
Stayed a night here due to its location & reasonable price. I wasn't expecting any flash & wasnt disappointed. Room was upstairs accessed by steepish & narrow stairs. There were tables directly outside each room with ashtrays & smoke wafted into the room with the door closed. Room was very small & double bed was short (I'm 190cm), but as I was travelling alone I was able to lay diagonally. Motel is within easy walking distance of the main street.

I chose this motel for its price and the fact that all we needed was a place to sleep before traveling on early the next morning. So value for money was appropriate. Improvements could be made to the condition of the entrance wooden door and bathroom architraves. The door was broken at the bottom and the architraves in the bathroom were in a similar condition. The lock on the entry door was also loose. The tiles and grouting in the shower and bathroom were also cracked and stained. The bath towels, however were soft and thick, I think the best towels I have had in a motel ever! The manager also provided us with a jug of milk rather than the UHT milk capsules, very thoughtful and much nicer!

The vast amount of mould on the bathroom ceiling really stood out to me. The muck on the walls of the room wasn’t very nice either. Some surfaces had a thick layer of dust on them, including the bathroom basin top.

If you are after a basic sub-standard no frills budget motel, this is the place for you. The services listed on their website do not exist, there is no breakfast at all, the airport shuffle does not exist, I did not see a BBQ and the milk provided with your room is portioned by the motel and barely enough for a coffee or tea. When questioned about the lack of services that are listed on the website, the manager didn't care. If you stay here, expect nothing and you won't be disappointed.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean. Our stay was only short - 2 nights, but we had everything we needed. The only thing that would make a stay more enjoyable, would be for the rooms to have more eating utensils, plates, bowls and spoons.

Not Imoressed
This hotel was disappointing. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. There was built up dust and dirt in the bathroom. The air-conditioner was noisy with something stuck in the vent. The complimentary milk was provided in a jug with glad wrap covering it - in these times of COVID etc, this is totally inappropriate. Will never stay again or recommend this hotel.

A good highway stopover
The Wattle Tree is typical of most roadside Motels in rural Australia. The room was small, clean, functional and without frills. While the fittings reflect the age of the Motel, including the pastel pink bathroom tiles everything is is good repair. Location is good with a short walk to the Main Street and Supermarkets, plus numerous pubs, cafes and restaurants. Our two night stay was comfortable and probably typical of most travellers looking for a quiet room with great AC to recharge before proceeding in with the journey.

Well price country town motel
Nice well priced room for one night. Parking is very tight in the motel when full, so there’s a potential for you to park on the street. The bed wasn’t bad but the pillows were very uncomfortable in the smaller rooms up stairs. I’ve stayed down stairs before in a bigger room and they were much better, so potentially a one off.

Convenient central location
The location is convenient. It’s pretty much in the center of town and close to everything in Cootamundra. The room was clean and sufficient, however it was very small. The car parks were extremely small as well. However, overall it was okay for the price.
