The staff were so welcoming and always keen to help. The room was good value for money and is located so close to the Main Street that you could just walk too.
We also loved all the sheep images. The kids also loved the pool since it was hot weather.
The staff were friendly and the location perfect. It was a really comfortable base for us while visiting Dubbo.

We loved our stay at the Shearing Shed motor inn! Our 3 yr old loved playing in the pool and staff were really lovely and helpful. Room was comfortable and clean.
The room was really spacious, a little dated but not too bad. Please get some bigger wine glasses rather than a tiny thimble from a 1960’s RSL.

Staff were courteous. The room needs some improvements. The one sink (in the bathroom) requires drain cleaning. Water did not drain away rapidly. The bed was large, firm and comfortable. The bulb was missing from a lamp beside the bed so I couldn’t use the bed lamp. The table and chairs were very handy for eating food. Lots of restaurants are nearby so the location is really good. It is good value accommodation; however, the place smells strongly of some type of air freshener. I was overwhelmed by the strong smell upon entering the room. Why use such strong air freshener? Cleanliness could be better. I had to wash a couple of chairs because they had hair on them. The place is well priced and close to the city centre. Parking spaces were located out front and close to the unit.

Reception staff were excellent and couldn’t be more kind and helpful. The room was clean and spacious; all we needed for a couple of nights passing through.
Room was spacious, comfortable, well appointed and spotlessly clean

It’s clear management takes pride in the appearance and comfort for the people who stay at this motel. Its quirky “shearing shed” theme nudges it above other motels in Dubbo.
