Our first impressions was good but the sight of two televisions in our room with the big screen had been damaged & was replaced with a smaller tv, no reason why but that's what we had to put up with. The room was comfy & clean which is a bonus after seeing the TV. The bed was comfy though which was a bonus. When we arrived back at our room for the second day, we were shocked that our room was made up which was disappointing, their reply from the manager said we didn't have the card that says make up our room on the door. I said that there wasn't a card to hang on the door but he discussed this with the staff & this was rectified for the next 3 days. Overall the motel was close to the Nowra & was a quiet area.

Good stay for 1 night but dated

Room was dated and had damage to the ceilings. The TV didn’t work and the fly screens on the windows had holes so insects would come in if the window was open.

A wonderful stay in Nowra

The rooms have been refurbished and are looking modern and fresh. There are both soft and hard pillows, a nice couch and a great large widescreen TV. The motel is away from the highway so it's very quiet and there is a great coffee and donut cafe across the road. Will stay again

We only had an overnight stay, and it was absolutely perfect! George Bass Motor Inn was the 7th hotel or motor inn we have checked in, on our 3 weeks road trip, and it was the best! It's spacious, with all amenities provided with quality. Everything was presented with great impression, and the beds were very comfortable!!! Kitchen had most things we needed, and what a big fridge!! Sadly, we only stayed overnight. Wish, we were not just passing by needing a place to rest and sleep. But we definitely recommend George Bass Motor Inn. Should we be going back to Nowra, this is the place to be.
