Maria Motel

Guests praise the cleanliness, spacious rooms, and friendly owners. The accommodation provides value for money, a fully-equipped kitchen, and convenient location near amenities.

The Maria Motel might have seen better days but if you can live with that it is a great place to stay. It is adjacent to the Artesian Aquatic Centre, which is probably the main reason many people visit Moree. The rooms are very spacious, including the bathroom. A full kitchen is provided, including a full-size fridge, so self-catering is straightforward. There is also a communal BBQ area. When we stayed it was school holidays and the place was busy with a couple of large extended family groups, so getting near the BBQ did become issue. Would readily stay here again. Host was amenable too.

The motel is located a few minutes walk from the famous Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre. Its close enough that I changed into my swimsuit, covered myself with a towel and walked in my thongs to the centre, and back. I'd come to Moree to spend time at the Artesian Spa and that's what I did. The water was warm and the atmosphere lively. My room was spacious and well furnished. The room, ensuite and kitchenette were all spotlessly clean. The kitchen was equipped with pots and pans, crockery and cutlery, etc etc with a hotplate, microwave, toaster and kettle - all in excellent condition. There was a table and chairs so one could sit down and comfortably eat a meal. The motel was happy for guests to take the motel's towel(s) to the aquatic centre - only requesting that specifically provided towels be taken, which was perfectly understandable. A/c, tv and free wifi worked well. The motel owners were very friendly and hospitable, happy to provide guidance and directions when requested. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would love to return.
