What guests think

A1 Motels and Apartments Port Fairy provides simple, good-value stays, with many guests praising clean, spacious rooms, easy contactless check-in, and quiet outlooks, while noting dated bathrooms and occasional maintenance inconsistencies.

Several guests reported missing access codes, difficulty reaching staff, or an impersonal feel with the contactless setup. Rooms are generally comfortable, with modern touches and some offering balconies or rural views, but front units can hear highway traffic and a few mentioned hard mattresses, slow-to-heat hot water, or TV setup issues. The property sits on the outskirts of Port Fairy, making it a short drive to shops and restaurants. Expect a practical, no-fuss motel stay.

Check in was terrible, did not receive code to get in, had to ring property to get room number & code for door, did not get into room until around 6pm. Room was at front of property on main highway so quite a lot of traffic noise. Room was very well kept & had everything we needed, jug, toaster, microwave, crockery, cutlery, decor was lovely.

The usual tarted up older motel with self check in i.e. no reception, white tiles grouted over really badly with black grout, cracked one not replaced, damp rot at bottom of bathroom door etc. lick of paint, flashy heated mirror. Good bed, but no dish cloth etc. Almost a mirror image of the one we stayed at in Inverloch, same owners for sure.

Easy after hours check In with texted instructions, although upon arriving late in the evening the door for the second bedroom was locked but was promptly rectified with a phone call. Overall room was comfortable and spacious. Some minor attention to detail would be beneficial for future guests, stains on the couches, bird droppings all over the patio and the inside of the kettle was quite bad (needed to boil water for an infant but used a pot in the stove instead). Overall a comfortable stay and room had the facilities required.

The location was very convenient and pleasant the room was average. The bed was comfy but the bathroom vents and walls needed deep cleaning . When asked for the room to be tidy after going out multiple Of times would come back to see the amenities refreshed and dishes cleaned but the beds not neatly done . The facility needs some renovations. It was good value for money though I would recommend if you were in a tight budgets

The room was obviously recently renovated as was obvious from the paint all over the door handle on the inside. Generally it was a nice room, but when we turned on the TV to watch the news we could not get any free to air Tv stations. There was no reception, and it seemed like the TV channels had not been tuned. I rang the phone number provided and was told by a lady that we just needed to scroll through the items on the mode button and the TV stations would come up. She said to ring back if we could not get reception. When we couldn't, I rang back but got a voicemail. I left a message and then a message came back saying the office would open at 9am. No-one was there at 9am the next day. We were out all day, but nothing was fixed when we got back that evening. There was no followup, and we didn't see a single person from management for the 2 days we were there.

It was a great 3 nights stay at A1 motel and thank you for upgrading us to a family suite. Very spacious suite, quiet, clean and easy check in. Bed linen is very clean and comfortable. Location is great as well just a couple of mins drive to Bank Street, with lots of dinning option over there. Highly recommended.

The remote for the T.V didn't work. Went to reception but no one on site, you have to call a number on reception door. Call number,, it goes to voice mail. Two minutes later someone calls back and wants to know which Motel I was at. They said they will send someone around. A young lady comes around about ten minutes later. She said, "oh yeah this remote doesn't work, would you like to move to another room. So we pack up and move next door. Later on go to have a shower. Have the shower running on hot water only for about 10mins before it only gets Luke warm. Had shower doesn't get any warmer. After a cold, wet miserable day a nice hot shower would have been nice. NEVER AGAIN., would I go back to this place.
