The absolute pits!! Smelt like a chain smoker had lived there for ten years! The bed was a nightmare, massive dip in the centre, terrible for two people! Only good thing was they allowed us to
escape before 6am in the morning without hassle. Wouldn’t recommend even if my life depended on it!! The street is more comfortable and appealing then this motel!

Room was quite large with two beds, and air conditioning, small fridge, couch, table and chairs, radio with clock and kettle etc. Bathroom wasn't too bad. Room service could have been better, but not too bad. Biggest issue we had was with the key cards for the door, which frequently didn't work. Please note also the bar is not open for guests, however alcohol and other beverages and snacks can be purchased from reception. Washing machine is free to use for guests but dryer will cost you $2.20 per time, and it doesnt work very well. Overall a pleasing result I feel for the management at Essendon Motel.

My wife and two sons stayed in this hotel, they returned to me tormented and horrified. My son slept in a bed (used the electric blanket) riddled with urine which caused a skin condition which he still has five years later! Bathroom was infested with mould and cockroaches.. My wife told me she complained about the urinated bed to the manager, she was abused and yelled at infront of my two sons!! As well as having no access to towels or cups, they left the hotel traumatized. I would most definitely NOT recommended this motel to anyone!!!!!

On a very warm day/night the bed was made with a doona the size of a snowdrift. I asked for a cotton blanket but the staff member could not understand my request or pretended not to understand. The cold breakfast tray was delivered whilst I was out at a function. The milk for the cornflakes was not placed in the fridge and no butter was offered for the horrible white bread. I ate nothing and asked for a refund. It was grudgingly given.
The room is larger than newer motels. The receptioniste agreed to phone a taxi for me as my phone was out of battery.
I was woken at 7.30 by maintenance staff hammering outside the neighbouring unit.
Find other accommodation.

Gone downhill.the place is actually dirty, filthy to be polite. Everything is dated and barely working. I've been using this motel for a number of years now but I think I'd rather pay a few dollars extra and enjoy clean and comfortable surrounds.

One star is two too many!!!
This place is a disgrace. My issues:
1. Waited 5 minutes for someone to come to reception
2. Went to iron shirt but board was ripped in half. Sought a replacement only to be told it had been broken for ages and no replacements! After pushing them took a dirty one from room next door which stank of cigarette smoke.
3. Carpet filthy.
4. All lights not working.
5. Aircon - part of cover missing.
6. One lonely coat hanger only.
7. Got home at 11pm looking forward to a cups. Alas, no cup in room so used glass. Double alas - not a single spoon in room.
$120 for a night about 100 bucks too much.
My advice - try somewhere else.

Property is dated 1960s. Cleanliness is very poor. Maintenance is very poor. Staff not very friendly. Access from a service road is not good at night. I can not believe that this place has 3 stars!

The staff was friendly, room was comfy and clean and the late check in service they provide was convenient.

Worst hotel ever! late check in , free wifi
And guest laundry are only things good about this place .

Depressing run down neglected rooms with not even a telephone in them or cups cutlery bowls or plates to eat anything off but they have microwaves a kettle and and iron and ironing board.

3 1/4 used toilet paper rolls 1 x shampoo and a tiny round soap for the shower in the bathrooms mostly all of the rooms had same broken or leaking showers that flood half bathroom floor no baths. Woke up two mornings In a row to find a big black spider using the shower. Smell coming from toilets was horrid.

Every morning the male cleaner wouldn't even knock just enter our room without permission earlier than or at 9am which was probably the most shocking thing I found as I was laying naked ontop of blankets due to the hot weather and wasn't impressed! The receptions excuse for the cleaner entering without permission so early was that because check outs at 10 and they want to clean the room!! Precisely so why is he entering rooms at 9am without knocking ???

The price climbed up $10-$20 per day as the rooms got worse.

Sign out front says spa rooms and restaurant open every day which is used as a junk room or rumpus room for the receptionist baby !

No receipts were given for the deposit or room payments we made although requested them causing an issue at check out with the deposit amount being disputed as no receipt given leaving us short &10 from the $110 that was asked for as deposit for the room but it was that staff members day off and we were unable to prove other wise.

This place is a joke and just plain awful to stay in my advice stay anywhere but here.

Never stay in a place so bad mu wife and woken up miked to a man asking if I'm checking out at 8.30 In the morning having to wash the shower before having one stain on the sheets carpet no food or drinks and had to pay 150 deposit only to get 100 back because that what the night receptionist put in the book and the restaurant that was spouse to be open Monday to Friday it was no restaurant
There was cornflakes at 5 dollars a packet Ann a few stall chips I would only recommend to someone that want to torched then self do you self a favor and other pay the extra $ 30 $ 40 and stay at a real motel or save it and sleep in your car

Not great. Staff were friendly and bed was comfortable but nothing else was positive.

Fittings are very dated. Air conditioner was so loud it drowned out the jets from the air lane directly overhead. Coffee cups hadn't been washed. Shower cubicle full of mould. Bathroom chipped and rusting. You'll find a bigger TV in the headrest of a passenger jet. Very expensive considering what else is available. Charged extra for late checkout.
