It would be a great positive and help to the Motel if the Manager spent some time reading the reviews along with this one and acted upon them. The location was great It's comfortable but not ritzy or the Ritz. If you want a bed and then be out and about all day then this motel is ok. I was provided with clear after hours check in arrangements (one of the few ticks). Here you get what you pay for - basic. A little difficult to find and better signage somehow would go along way. Walking along the footpath there is more emphasis on the Travelex Money Changer kiosk. If you walk at the road side (no don't do that) you may have a chance at seeing the name of the Motel. Notes for the Manager: Poor mattress sagging in the middle. No kitchen utensils other than a coffee spoon yet has a microwave oven. Noisy from the outside building/construction from 6am each morning. Some power points did not work and one was dangerous. Had other switches on the wall that didn't work. Bathroom needed a good clean as there was mould evident. Toilet seat was stained with the obvious. Air conditioning was noisy and seemingly had one speed - high. While this is a cheaper accommodation than other places there should be no excuse for the above points as they are fixable - so how about it Manager????

Give a miss

Bathroom was mouldy and TV didn't work. We were shifted to a slightly cleaner room but wouldn't recommend to anyone unless the room was dusted and vacumed under everything movable and the grouting replaced. Bath was rusty.

It’s cheap and that’s what ur paying for

The only thing ur paying for is location. If ure a no-fuss, i dont care i just need somewhere to sleep, it’s bang on worth the money. But all the furniture, bedding was worn down, as cruel as it is to say this, like the furniture u see people throw out on the kerb. I arrived over public holidays so saw no one working there at all. You had to ring a number to access a safe with the hotel keys. There was a gentleman from the UK desperate to check in but his phone wasn’t for local calls so it was lucky I turned up to help him out.

Cleanliness needs to be improved. Smell is alright but there are some items lying around the room from previous guests. Overall, it is alright. Thank you.

This place is excellent for a very cheap hotel in the centre of Melbourne. It's on Swanston Walk right near St Paul's cathedral and a block away from Flinders Street Station. Lot's of homeless people outside late at night when you go out for a smoke. Staff very friendly and helpful. You get what you pay for. Get a standard Queen room at least. Uses actual metal room key so don't lose it or lock yourself out late at night. Overall a good stay.

Extremely good value for an overnight stay in the centre of the CBD - nearby parking off Flinders Lane was only $20 with 'validation' I will certainly be staying here again and will recommend it to family and friends.

Hotel is very central to everything in Melb CBD with tram stop right outside. Check in quick and pleasant. Room was very spacious and comfortable. Yes, a little in need of extra cleaning of walls & windows, bathroom grout but l've seen worse in private homes. Linen very good and general surfaces were clean. Bed very comfortable. For price l wouldn't ask for/expect anything more. You pay more for dirt camping spot, where you provide everything and share toilets, so don't know what people are complaining about.

Bit of an old reliable dog this one - scruffy, peeling paint, weary staff, but prices reflect it and spacious clean rooms with old aircon- suited me perfectly! Maybe not if you like a posh hotel!!

Give it a miss...

Disappointing.... our room did not look like the photographs so perhaps we were on a level that was not usually used. Mould in the bathroom cupboard, windows hadn't been cleaned for years. We noticed a horrible smell outside our room door, my husband found rubbish had been stashed in a cupboard near by - surely this should have been something easy noticed by the cleaners. The location was the only positive. Lucky we were only here for a short time but would happily spend a few more $ next time to ensure we were in a nicer environment.
