Common downsides include traffic noise in street-facing rooms, dated decor, and occasional maintenance or check-in issues.

Some sort of barrier/gate system on the entrance from the back street to make the cars safer. At present, anybody can simply walk in and take a car or possessions from any room. Otherwise, the motel room and dining options within close proximity are simply great. We have stayed at Mid City Motel before..

A return client. That says something surely! Motel rooms are well appointed and well proportioned. Being set-back from main street, they are also quiet. There is a convenient in-house restaurant at front. Tiny walk to fast foods, parks, all shopping - incl supermarkets. Parking is easy with main street and back street access. Recommended. Will always be my go-to accommodation when in this area.

The property was good. The location is fifty-fifty coz you can stay in the middle of the town but you have to tolerate vehicle sounds passing by. Also car parking allocation is not marked as per the room number. Inside all nice, clean and tidy. Yes, a good accommodation in the city and I definitely recommend.

Mid City Motor Inn is centrally located on the main street in Colac. Our unit was clean, well appointed, reasonably spacious and comfortable. Good off-street parking was also provided directly outside our unit. Nothing to be critical of. Good value.
