Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
It's in a great location and that's pretty much where the positives end. The elevator was covered in graffiti that hasn't been cleaned off (foreshadowing of what was to come). The walls of the room were covered in marks, and the floor around the edges and behind the bed were covered in very visible thick dust about an inch and a half wide. The air-conditioner was very noisy but it was effective. The sheets on the bed were clean but there wasn't enough to keep warm so I had to keep the air-conditioner on overnight, which would've been fine if it wasn't so noisy. The sink is too close to the toilet. The shower was stained and looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a while and the towels stunk of bleach.

Didn't interact with any staff due to a late check-in and very early check-out, but I didn't mind that. Instructions for after hours check-in were straightforward, and easy to follow, much appreciated! Room was clean and organised, and I liked the toiletries provided, very useful as I'd forgotten mine for that trip. Overall, I had no issues, and will very much book here again when staying in the city.

The rooms were nothing like what is pictured when booking. The whole place was dirty, poorly maintained - no lights in fixtures and the ones that were working kept pulsing, cracked walls broken windows, cups filthy and no tea or sugar in room, graffiti in the lifts, carpets’s trashed, plaster dust on the floor. Owners need to spend the money and fix it up or get out of owning hotels. Would NOT EVER recommend anyone to stay here.

The room was filthy. The window had jagged remains of broken glass and glass was in the room. It could not be closed.There was old take-away in the fridge, graffiti in the elevator, Mould in the bathroom and a lost pill behind the door which is clearly never vacuumed. We left. I have photos! The price was higher than for a Travelodge, so we expected clean and functional.

Room is good and average, staff is responsive. It is city centre and close to Flinders street station. The bathroom was renovated, although shower drain was blocked. Parking is affordable with validated ticket.

Old dusty ac unit, bad quality pillows, dingy room - really has taken a downhill turn since my previous stay in ‘22 or ‘23. The room itself was cleaned well prior to my stay though the underlying surfaces and amenities in the room are quite dated and dingy. There was a mouse in the foyer as I checked out which really encapsulated the experience

Negatives: The room was unclean - visible dust and dirt along edges of the room, visible black mould in the bathroom, hair dryer did not work, door trims are coming away from the wall in the bathroom reflecting poor maintenance. Positives: bed was clean and comfortable, bathroom supplies were provided, good location.

The hotel and rooms are disgustingly filthy and the service is not better. The staff do not respond to messages for several days which put us at a major inconvenience as we were waiting on a response from them. The rooms have never been cleaned in their life judging on the filth in the room. The rooms are full of dust, bacteria and mould. I’m not a hygiene freak but this hotel is absolutely disgusting and unhygienic. The photos are self explanatory. The hallways and elevators are riddled with graffiti and filth. The area is also extremely unsafe but is close to the train station which is why it’s a 2 star for location.

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.

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.

Should have looked at reviews before booking my mistake. Lucky we were not robbed like others. Window broken and barely hanging on, grime all over bathroom tiles and hair all over the place

The room I stayed in was a disgraceful mess. The guy on the reception desk was a lazy P---- and refused to replace a light bulb in the room. A BLOODY LIGHT BULB. Did not give a Rats Ar--. Did not care to the point of being a smart AR--. The place was filthy. Response....Too bad. There were feral cretins right outside my room who decided to turn on their ghetto blaster full on at 12.00am. I called the police after repeatedly trying to call THIS HOTELS VERSION OF SECURITY. TOTAL FBS. How disgracefully LAX. The fire stairs are a disgraceful rubbish tip.If you want photos let me know but somehow I don't think you have the BA--S. to face the truth. Try giving me my money back. What!!! NO!! I didn't think so.
