Dated but convenient
Rooms are a bit dated.
I could hear music from the club while I tried to sleep with the window open but closing it and using the a/c solved that. I just prefer fresh air.
Due to renovations occurring I was unable to park outside my unit this time.

Not a good room.
The shower has lots of mould, not a good look, needs a deep clead
The motel is old, you can hear all the noises from the rooms around you. Guest going to the toilet in middle of the night.
The club has construction in progress, dirt road with lots of dust, and 7am start with trucks and machinery.

Very convenient for Central Coast area with the added convenience of Gosford RSL next door. Plenty of parking available and good service. I recommend this as a really good Motel.

This property is connected to a newly rebuilt substantial RSL Club and in what is primarily an area for bulky goods stores and gateway traffic somehow finds a quiet spot on substantial creek-side with sportsgrounds on the other side.
The Club makes for which you receive complimentary membership if staying at the motel is extremely well-priced with good dining options.
This area has a range of old-fashioned motels that really no longer meet standards, but is actually underserviced with accommodation, and can regularly sell-out on weekends. Galaxy has always been a haven amongst these options and whilst accommodation in the area isn't particularly cheap, Galaxy is excellent value for its quality compared to other options.

We have stayed at the Galaxy on numerous occasions. The bed was comfortable, the room clean. I felt small things let it down. Under the bathroom cupboards, I could see where it hadn’t been cleaned right underneath. The door frames needed a touch up. No breakfast menu in the room. I requested a third towel which did not arrive.
Current work to the new parking area of the RSL Club has left the access road with many potholes. Don’t get me wrong we will stay there again. Access to the Club to the Club was very good. Breakfast available at the Club till 10.30am, which wasn’t bad.
Great to meet Helen at Reception.

Great rooms. Parking very difficult to find but we parked right next to our room. RSL was just outside our room and lovely venue. Great place to stay and will be better when the new works are complete

The area around the property is under construction.
Overall, the property itself is great, clean rooms, convenient location and pleasant employees.
The biggest and best RSL is right out front, too.
This will be a fantastic property once the renovations to the RSL are complete!

Decent size room
The room was large and comfortable and had recently been renovated. The bathroom was a good size.
The hotel is part of the new RSL which is right next door. We were given free membership so we could eat there.
Only issue is the construction of the new car park which is very noisy during the day.
