Twin Pines Motel

Visiting friends in Mooloolaba for a week, having been in Australia for the previous 5 weeks, called into the 4 pines several times for a glass of Shiraz, good wine and very friendly staff, would recommend it to anyone visiting Mooloolaba, thank you team, Ken 🍷🍷🍷👍

I understand it is a budget hotel, but even for the price I would expect as a minimum - A door for the bathroom and milk for tea/coffee. Would not re-visit. Better to spend a bit extra money and stay elsewhere.

We aren’t ones to be picky about accomodation - as long as we have a clean room, a hot shower, a comfy bed and a safe place to sleep we are happy. It is budget accomodation so we didn’t expect much but it was one of the worst places either of us have ever stayed. We arrived at the accomodation and the lady was friendly and put a cable into our room for the tv. We then went out for food and a few drinks and it was on our return that our stay gradually went downhill. At the current time, you expect places to be clean and sanitised due to COVID however it looked like our room hadn’t been cleaned for months. There was litter on the floor, hair on the sink, used cosmetic scissors in the bathroom, cigarette ash in the window sill, the microwave was full of dried food, there were glow sticks in the fridge, a sock or something covering the smoke detector, a used straw next to a dirty comb with white powder on it on top of a light. It felt like we were in a room someone had been living in but they’d just left for the night for us to stay in it. In the evening a couple in the room below were arguing about ‘shooting up’ and threatening to kill each other. The safety latch on the door didn’t have a chain and the door between us and the room next door was unlocked. The bed sheets were so stained (yellow, brown and even blood looking ones) we went out and bought glen 20 to spray everything. We thought it was strange to have some standard cutlery in the cupboard yet a huge knife just sitting on the side next to the tea bags. We were woken at 6:30am by extremely loud screaming pipes. If we hadn’t had a few beers we would have packed up and gone back home. Wouldn’t stay again and wouldn’t recommend.
