Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This property was the worst place I have ever stayed. It was absolutely filthy and the amenities below standard. To pay just short of $500.00 for two nights and get a room in that condition is appalling. I would be ashamed to be associated with a property in that condition. It felt like a hallway house. Happy to share the photos.

The motel is very well located, but the conditions are very poor. The only thing I think was clean was the bathroom and the sheets, nothing else. The carpet and my furniture are in terrible condition.

The tariff for the room was excessive based on the very poor maintenance of the room ie. bathroom tiles round the bath/shower, the side of the vanity cupboard rotting, a toaster was supplied but no knife or plate for your use. Etc, etc.

For the price the motel was okay. The check out experience was horrible. An extremely rude and arrogant staff member. I returned keys saying good morning and they were snatched, no response or thank you or how was your stay. The ladt checking out before me received the same treatment More respect was shown from the safebox. I would be definitely getting rid of this worker. I won't use this accommodation again and will advise friends to definitely give it a miss too.

Have stayed here a few times over a couple of years. Sadly it’s getting worse. Great position but very tired and rooms not very clean. Supposed to have kettle and toaster. First room had neither. Next one had both but no glasses, plates or any cutlery. Don’t know if I will stay again.

Property was within walking distance to shops and MCG. Linen was clean. Bedroom was dirty and shower was covered in mold. Room smelt like bleach and the smell remained overnight. Didn't use the bathroom facilities and I would not stay there again.

Great location. Good for the budget traveller. Probably not the best spot if you are a light sleeper due to the construction works across the street or if you are accustomed to staying in modern hotels.

This is a truely awful place to stay. It's dirty and badly maintained. I discovered vomit stains on the wall by my bed. The manager did agree to giving me a new room, which was in slightly better condition. But I received no apology. I had to ask for my room to be serviced, but they didn't bother to do any cleaning as part of it. The only redeeming feature is it's located close to the arts and theatre district. I recommend you avoid this one.
