My daughter and me stayed at the hotel for seven nights. We were disgusted there were no blankets or bed spreads on the beds just a top sheet. The air conditoner did not work properly and when weception we were told it would be fixed but it wasnt. There was cockroaches in our room in the management just gave us a can of fly spray. We did not feel safe the foyer is not locked at night and we heard people coming in and out all night. The foyer stairs and outside our room was absolutely filthy and were never cleaned at all the whole time we were there. The people in the room above us children were running around half the night all week and because of the reception not being manned we could not report it. The towels were thin and need to be replaced. Its a wonder they place is still open we felt unsafe in the hotel with all the homeless people walking past and the foyer not being locked at one stage we smelt urine in the foyer. Our room was not cleaned properly and on arrival there was a used soap in the bathroom. I will never stay there again it was noisy with doors slamming unsafe unclean and reception were rude…

Dodgy area: next to a tattoo parlour and an Adult shop. Only one cafe nearby, not open in the evening (although the Ampol Foodary just down the street is good) No-one at reception on arrival, appear to be very short staffed “Sheridan Lounge Bar” not operational - no food or drink other than tea bags and instant coffee sachets in room No plug for the sink TV remote not working Dripping shower One room light not working Light in alcove for tea making not working Towels small, thin Curtains mouldy But the room was clean and I felt safe once I'd locked myself into my room

The room was clean and would have been fine but then I went to leave and found I couldn't lock the door to the balcony. I was offered an alternative room but had the same issue. I requested a refund and was told they had a 24 hour cancellation policy. Sadly I wasn't to know that the room couldn't be secured until I got there. Don't stay here if you want your belongs safe and to sleep well at night.

I honestly do not know how this Motel is still in business. We stayed 4 nights and it was a complete nightmare. It was filthy, the room was never serviced, the entrance and stairwell were disgustingly dirty, it's very echoey and loud you can hear everything, it is very unsafe as the 24hr entrance is open for anyone to come in off the street...hence our 2nd last night, we came out of our room to go for breakfast and in the alcove off our room there were 6 Police officers holding a man down on the ground, we then went outside to see 6 x Police vehicles parked...so not a good look. I urge people to read all reviews before booking this place and Trip Advisor and Bookings.com need to really have themselves go there and write a review of there own and see what it's really like. It is unacceptable to have customer service like this.…

Absolutely terrible management. Had issue with the room not being as described. Was not offered alternative options until after I had checked out. The facility itself is also not good. Do Not stay here. Very poor experience.

We walked up to the motel and just kept walking. We had booked through Qantas who show photos of a Best Western Motel . This motel is dirty and neglected from the outside. Not a Best Western property.

Stay away. You get charged twice for the one booking. And they're not keen to return the double charge. Reception has limited hours, there's no lift to get luggage up 3 levels. The corridor is open to the public. My room was very tired and dirty. The balcony door lock doesn't work, it uses a flimsy chain instead. Fronting onto the street is very noisy. Still waiting to get my money back. The picture shown on this app is not the same motel.
