This motel should have its star rating downgraded

The Embassy Motel in Canberra, ACT is in need of a proper maintenance program. The exterior lacks maintenance and in particular the fascia is overdue for paint and the vegetation is not trimmed. The room was clean and comfortable and would not have any trouble achieving a 3 star rating, but the toilet cistern needed to be closely checked to ensure that it closed off after use and did not continue to run.

The shower door track was out of adjustment and left a gap at the bottom. The breakfast offered did not taste fresh and I experienced an upset stomach during the morning. The balustrade to the external stairs does not comply with current building codes and replacement should be considered. It is too low.

The proximity to the Manuka shopping centre is a real plus.

You can book hotels and much more accommodation online.

This Motel is tired and in need of re-construction.

The very small rooms and inadequate car parking facilities, plus the lack of lights within the room reflect the age of the motel. TV was flat screen but no Auststar or Foxtel channels. Air conditioner was cool only and heater did not work. Location adjacent to Kingston shopping centre very convenient - easy walk to restaurants. Over-all did not meet expectations of a 3. 5 star rating.

Plenty of things to see and do in Canberra.

Book Best Western Motel Monaro, or Inner South Accommodation and Hotels.
