Paddlewheel Motel

Good location close to the shops and the port.

Unfortunately you can hear everything from your room.

location was great. we could walk to restaurants or have a pub meal as they were all within walking distance.

Non pretentious motel room in Echuca. Comfortable bed. Quiet.

Slightly outdated bathroom.

paddlewheel is easy to find. just average all round. leaving was a relief.

first up was a sad greeting at reception and the smell of curry cooking. Bedding! sheets screwed up under occupants as were not 'fitted' or wide enough to tuck under firmly. blankets were fluffy and too hot. no doona as such. A really fluffy dirty cushion was placed middle of pillows on arrival, two other cushions placed behind it were questionable. toilet was way too close to shower screen and difficult to be seated without some gymnastics. grout in the shower tiles was filthy. 3 piece sliding screen door, which are notorious for jamming, needed attention. bursts of very hot water during showering detected. tiny thin towels. Garden beds neglected. About 6 or 7 motels along this stretch, we picked a sorry one. This section of highway must be the local speedway at night. duped by the name obviously. 'paddlewheel' sounded like the echuca i once knew.
