Cleaning needs attention, bathroom particularly. Coffee mug was stained and there's no brush or dishcloth to clean up in the kitchenette. Tiny 32" TV on the huge wall opposite the bed, should be at least 40" to be seen at that distance.. The receptionist was friendly and helpful on check-in. I paid on check-in with a different card to the one I used to confirm the booking and an attempt was made 1.5 hrs later to charge my card that was used to confirm the booking, even though the account was paid in full??

Tidy complex, centrally located, large clean room.
The Black Rock Inn was very easy to find. It’s a large complex with plenty of onsite parking. Our room was large and clean. We had a good size fridge which was appreciated, as well as a kitchen sink and microwave. We had a small balcony, nice to sit out on in the evening. The motel manager was very friendly and accommodating. We used the onsite restaurant one night of our stay - great food and service.

We had an excellent stay at Black Rock Inn. The staff was super friendly, very warm welcome 😊. The size of the 2 bedroom appartement was bigger than expected. It was clean and tidy. Excellent location to visit Blackdown Tablelands, which was beautiful.

arrived & waited at reception for a good five minutes (which was ok) Went into room facilities were ok, couch was badly worn, & bed was comfortable When we returned from the pub no lights were on so we were walking in pitch black darkness, which is disappointing as there should be lights in the car parking area
