Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Manager requested payment immediately, before I entered allocated room Paid him in full, with Cash. No receipt offered. Unfortunately I neglected to request one. Stayed 4 nights. Had four breakfast's. Paid cash every evening for these. Room a bit run down, Towel rails not intact to wall, cupboard handles hanging loosely. When returned home, later that evening, manager rang me at home, and accused me of not paying for room and 1 breakfast! Also, upon arrival, when entered reception was somewhat unceremoniously "greeted" by another "guest" who had an opened large bottle of beer in his hand. Appeared to be inebriated.

Very disappointing... where do I start?
A very tight and limited carpark wasn't a great start and then upstairs on a very old staircase and a very dilapidated walkway didn't improve things...
Then to the room ... what a continued array of disappointment! The room was extremely tired and had a feeling of being extremely dilapidated. Then to the noisy air-conditioner with a very noisy bird nesting in there early in the morning!

My family and I stayed here while visiting family in the area. Room was clean but had a very strong smell like cheap perfume. Very dated and in need of a renovation and car park is tight but more parking was available off the street near the hotel. Great location close to major shopping centre, restaurants, public transport and the beach.

First thing stated at reception was 'DON'T BE NOISEY' from the unpleasant manager. The upstairs room was dirty, mould in the shower and on the shower curtain rail. The UDL milk was off. there were discarded used needles on the roof of the 1st floor. NEVER AGAIN!!!

Staff very rude, bathroom old, no room in bathroom or beedroom. The photos look ok but really dont stay here....the room had a very string perfume smell a little is ok but this was over the top. Over priced for what you get and a lot more nicer places around for the same price.
We are currently in the process of fighting for a refund on a night we didnt stay...as we had pre paid but couldn't stay there another night it was disgusting...!

To make this brief, the manager and his wife were extremely rude, the car parking is a problem, the room was dirty. I scratched most of the night and did not sleep well at all due to a man and woman swearing at each other at 2.30am and three drunks outside the next room at 3am in the morning.The shower floor is slippery, the walls are stained, the side tables are also stained and marked. I recommend sleeping in your car if this is the only motel available

Stayed here all the time. All the rooms are clean and tidy, definitely No Bed Bugs. The location is great and accessible to all the shops which i always love to go. The manager was so helpful and approachable that anytime i need something, they are always there for us. The rooms has cooking facilities so i can cook anytime I want. I have no car so its very convenient to stroll to the beach which is nearby the hotel. I always go away with my kids every school holiday and stay in a motel but I will never stay anywhere else than this motel because I get value of my money. I highly recommend The Beach Motor Inn for its excellent customer service and a perfect place to go to.

no no no no no!!! My boyfriend and I went there for a weekend to catch up and as everything was booked out we had to go here. Thinking and hoping we may be lucky staying here, I have got to say we were not. The only good thing about the place was its air-conditioning, the wifi and that they printed my plane ticket off for me. Apart from that well we had a friken MOUSE is our room and we saw it running around at night and I can tell you we got no sleep that night. The bed wasn't attached to the wall so just sitting on top leaning back was a tricky task as it would gradually roll away to the middle of the room. There were bugs running around and seriously A MOUSE which just made everything in the room feel dirty.

I stayed here for 3 nights due to not having anywere to go. A crisis centre placed me here for the weekend. Living local i know this motel very well. Many people say bad things about the beach motor inn, but its tidy, clean, convenient, cheap and the owners are really nice and friendly. I would of been on the street otherwise so im grateful for being able to stay. Its the closest motel in frankston to the beach, nextdoor to a 24hr servo and across from frankston city centre. What more could you want in a motel? Locationlocation, dont judge a book by its cover 👍
