What guests think

ibis Budget Coffs Harbour draws mixed reactions: many guests find it a convenient, low-cost stop with generally friendly staff, but repeated comments highlight very small, dated rooms, noise from the neighbouring pub/highway, and significant maintenance and cleanliness issues.

Common issues include bathroom flooding from the shower, mould, and occasional pests like cockroaches. Facilities are basic, with a small pool, on-site parking and stair access only. Breakfast is a simple continental spread, with feedback ranging from adequate to disappointing. Overall, expect a no-frills overnight stop where price and location trade off against wear, noise and variable upkeep.

It was okay. Only needed a place to stay for the night and was 89 so can’t complain. The place was under renovation and repainted so, some areas were not accessible but, wasn’t an issue for us. No lifts in building if you’re on top floors so, if you can’t climb stairs, not for you. Old style Budget Ibis. Free wifi was great.

Bathroom has build up of mould and needs to be resealed and water proofed. The bathroom door has a very obvious fist sized punch on it and build up of many stains on the carpet, build up of dust underneath bed and found a tin of kids play putty under the bunk bed just by glancing so feels attention to cleaning is minimal because the item hadnt been found by cleaners. Just looks like some deep cleaning needs to he done. I was sneezing a bit during the stay. Lastly.. adults dont really like having a double bed against a wall so you have to climb over the other person to get in and out of the bed. my partner just got released from hospital and were out of area and needed somewhere affordable which this was but needs some attention to cleainess and maintenance. Staff were friendly but looked incredibly bored. Location was great. But no accessibility access. Have stayed in other budget ibis this one is below standard. Bed also ditches so i woke up with a sore back. Regretting not booking a second night at Matador across the road. I stayed there the sunday night and It was more expensive but didnt feel festive and dusty.

Extremely disappointed with the overall quality of this stay. The bed was uncomfortable, the carpet was full of stains, the walls were marked, the paint was flaking off door frames and the bathroom was absolutely disgusting, with holes and black mould. The breakfast consisted of cereals, toast and pancakes with fruit juice and tea/coffee. I advised the hotel in advance of a gluten allergy asking for this to be catered for but on arrival I was advised they don’t cater for any food allergies and there was no foods I could eat, even if told in advance. Not the standard expected from an ibis budget or the Accor hotel chain. Would not recommend or stay again!

Bathroom dirty with pubic hairs and regular long hairs. Smell of bleach burnt eyes. No idea where they used bleach as bathroom filthy. Tv is so old. Remote so old you couldnt tell which button was which. Breakfast is a disgrace. Stale cereal, cardboard plates, cardboard cups for hot drinks, water in a thermal jug was warm at best. So called "pastries" where old, stale thawed pre packaged muffins. No fruit either fresh or tinned. Would have been cheaper and fresher to go to Maccas. Whole building internally is a disgrace. No air conditioning in public areas. Noisy from other guests and traffic.

Oh my. We will forever call this the hepatitis hotel, though in reality, our room was more like a prison cell. Brown stains on the bath towels, black mould everywhere, holes in the walls and sinister stains all over the carpet. The smoke alarm was covered in dried wet paper towels. We didn’t care that it was outdated, we expected that for the price… but the cleanliness was APPALLING. Staff were lovely, but you’d have to pay me to stay here again.

There was a pub next door that played extremely loud music until 2am - there was no mention of noise on the website which people should be forewarned about. The amenities when booking said refrigerator but there was only a communal fridge downstairs. The pillows were flat and uncomfortable and the shower water leaked through the wall, into the bedroom and wet all our clothes.

The staff were lovely. Breakfast, which was included, had a good choice of items. Comfortable, clean beds. Ibis can afford to renovate this property. The bathroom had no ventilation, the exhaust fan didn't work, it smelled strongly of bleach - probably to control the mould - and there was a notice to keep the bathroom door closed when showering or we would have to pay $1700 if it set off the fire alarm 🙄.

Nothing to really like. Bathroom was poor. no separation for water from the shower tiles to the tiles on the floor of the bathroom including the toilet apart from the plastic shower curtain. Had to endure 15 min of a fire alarm because someone had taken a hot shower and left the bathroom door open, and it set off the fire alarm. Supplied "Continental Breakfast" was appalling. I had 2 x raison toasts, an orange juice, and left.

The room was standard for this hotel chain. The bathroom was showing signs of age & rust in metal trims, the shower tap handle fell off! It was very noisy overnight, with guests’ dogs barking, and people talking loudly in the corridors as they returned late in the night. The reception staff seemed to disappear at peak check in time, leading to a queue of guests waiting in the foyer. The breakfast was not as varied as the advertising inferred, with the pancake machine broken and no fruit being made available. Certainly not value for money, sadly. Our previous, recent, experience with Ibis Budget in South Wales UK was amazing, so we were understandably disappointed with this site.

There's a reason why they are called budget hotels. The place is in desperate need of upgrading. From broken air-conditioning to doors not latching properly (I had to slam the door for it to close). The $18 buffet breakfast consist of 3 types of cereal, 2 toasts, yoghurt, pancake, tea and coffee, juice (so don't expect bacon and eggs). Also, if more than two appliances are used at the same time, it will short circuit the mains. It happened when guests tried to put the kettle on, whilst the toaster and pancake machine were already being used.
