They are only interested in taking your money, they don't have any customer service.No staff answers the phone and the emergency number they give for late check in is disconnected, I do not recommend this place if you are working and need a place to rest.

Tried ringing Koala motel 1 hour prior to closing time at 8 pm to let them know of possible late arrival enroute from New Castle but had no 5G Optus coverage. Arrived just 1 minute past 8pm but the office was already shut and in darkness. Rang the after hours number and can only leave a message. Did that twice but did not ever get a call back. And yet we were charged the full price. We were lucky to get a room in nearby Mecure which is just a tiny bit more but good service, nice clean hotel and spacious. So buyers beware!!!

Booked this room for one of our truck drivers traveling from ACT, he arrived at approx. 8:30pm. We were charged an extra $30 for "late check in" and by late check in I mean the rude guy at the desk had to text him the key code to enter his room, rather than tell him in person. Absolutely ridiculous. Maybe think about texting the late check ins their code before you leave work if you're going to charge people $30 for an sms. No where on Wotif or the Koala Tree website does it say anything about a late check in fee. Will never stay here again and tell everyone who will listen this story.

Poor management, give this place a mis
I was highly disappointed in the attitude and mannerism of the hotel receptionist/manager. He dealt with a situation very inappropriately and breached my confidentiality. I had paid for the room beforehand and on check in was asked if they could charge the pet fee and security deposit which I was happy to do. Unfortunately the online booking had supplied an incorrect card and he couldn’t charge this after I had checked in, so he proceeded to enter my room while I was walking the dog (I had my phone and personal belongings in it), locking me out, then when I went back to see why, he was extremely rude, demanding and did not listen to anything I said (explained my phone was in the room when he called but he got angry and misunderstood saying “what your friend was in the room?!”) within minutes I had another credit card on file that he could charge but he never calmed down or apologised for his poor actions. This whole situation and attitude was a breach of my personal space (entering my room that had full payment) and I will not recommend this hotel to anyone while this manager cannot treat humans with any kindness or understanding.

Appalling service. Avoid at all cost.
We booked this hotel the day of our stay. After we booked we go a notice that, if we were arriving after 8pm to call to arrange access. We called - multiple times - phone didn't answer. We arrived at the hotel at 9. The manager's office was in darkness as was what looked like their accommodation. There were two numbers on the front door for after hours and emergency service. We called both multiple times - one didn't even ring, the other went to a text service. We left messages, No one called. After waiting for nearly an hour and multiple calls, by this stage it was nearly 10.30pm and no motels were open in the area. After driving for 8 hours that day, we had no option but to continue to drive home - another 4.5 hours. Very dangerous - and got home at 2.30am. This place is terrible!

Absolutely the worst place I have ever set foot in!! I would not even wish my worst enemy to stay here! Had multiple (and I mean multiple) large cockroaches come out when my partner and I were in bed wanting to get some rest after an extremely exhausting day. We called the after hours phone number immediately only to be told we wouldn't be believed. When we went in the next day the owner blamed the council for them, said pest control would have made it worse, asked what I would have liked him to do about the animals with legs that walked into the room and said he wouldn't refund us despite the fact we exited the room at midnight because "he didn't feel like it". Finally agreed to refund the amount we paid to upgrade the room but since dealing with Fair Trading he has claimed he never said that. I have the ENTIRE conversation recorded. If you hold anything dear in your life don't stay here. If I could less than 1 star I would.

It’s worth I have been saying my life. They took deposit $200- without notice they charged $459- one night. I have been asking receipt so James Danton General Manager The Koala Tree Motel [I have no responsibility to do that so I will make you a reprint and send that as a photo for just $10.] If you staying need receipts cost will be $10- I never received original receipt. If someone takes up the challenge of staying overnight, I would like to respect that person's challenge.

DON'T STAY AT THIS MOTEL. THEY CHARGE A $200.00 SECURITY DEPOSIT ON TOP OF THE MOTEL CHARGE!!!! THE ROOM CHARGE ADVERTISED IS NOT THE END PAYMENT. IT IS $70 MORE. IT IS A RABBIT WARREN TO GET INTO AND PARK. THEY ARE RENOVATING AND THE FITTINGS ARE WEAK AND PRECOCIOUS BUT NOT FUNCTIONAL THE MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM WAS HUGE AND HEAVY AND JUST HANGING READY TO FALL!!!! WORST OF ALL THEY CHARGE A $200.00 SECURITY DEPOSIT AND DON'T TELL YOU BUT THEY REFUNDED IN 5 WORKING DAYS. DON'T STAY AT THIS MOTEL, MANY GREAT MOTELS IN PORT MACQUARIE. .
