Greyfriars was an interesting property. The hotel is on the main street, yet it felt contained, safe and quiet. The unit had plenty of room for 4 and the kitchen was well-stocked. There were chairs on a covered front porch that we shared with one other unit. This is not a fancy hotel but it more than met our needs for an overnight stay. The room was clean and I felt safe. It’s a good property for travelers with children.

Its well placed in the centre of Greytown. And it has a very good heat pump and a very comfy bed. However....it is not a comfortable or easy motel to be in. The couch and kitchen chairs are heavy steel framed very hard and uncomfortable furniture. And....there is no sink or water facility in the kitchen area. There is only a microwave which is so high (obviously put in by a man) that it is dangerous to get hot food out of. It dudnt seem very hygenic to be washing dishes in the bathroom sink where you wash your teeth and hands. This motel was not cheap $500 for 2 nights and in my opinion doesnt meet approved hygene standards re the lack of washing facilities.

Great Overnight Stay

Great overnight stay. Motel location very handy to just park your car and walk to nearby cafes and restaurants (although some restaurants were closed on Tuesdays). Would definitely recommend.

Greyfriars is a really well located motel. Despite being on the main road, it is remarkably quiet, as it is set back from the street. It is only a moment’s walk from the shops and deli, and there is excellent parking. We booked a studio unit and had a very comfortable night. There was no sink in the kitchen, so it was a bit of a hassle doing dishes in the bathroom, but overall the unit was excellent and we would definitely stay again.

most expensive motel we stayed in but not the best

Booked 3 nights here as we were visiting friends in Greytown. The curtain by the entrance door was dirty on arrival . The room had an aircooler not an air-conditioning unit, which required regularly topping up with water and freezer packs and was noisy . A small bottle of milk was provided on arrival but a request for some additional milk the next day was met with directions to the Dairy or Supermarket. Having travelled extensively over many years this is the first time we have met with such penny pinching.Based on our experience with the noisy air cooler We wouldn't book here again or recommend .
The dirty net curtain.
