Rooms aren’t serviced , but you can go and ask for more towels , toilet paper etc Walking distance to shops and pub , transport Staff are friendly
Peter, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Last night at 9:00 PM, you charged my card for a room at Alexandra Motor Inn in Essendon. However, when I arrived, the receptionist refused to give me the room, saying it was “too late for check-in.” If late check-in is not allowed, why was my booking accepted and my money taken? This is unacceptable. I demand either immediate accommodation or a full refund without delay.
