The photos on the website are so misleading. The carpets were disgusting, no flyscreens on the windows, the room was musty. The whole Motel was a nightmare I actually felt unsafe all night and I was worried about our car been stolen or trashed. I would never stay here again and I won't ever advise anyone to stay here, how... More

Broken down car in carpark should have been me stopping turning around and running away. Worst motel ever.No towel Broken heater, bedside table, other peoples clothes in wardrobe inform staff. He call he want clothes back. My room was never cleaned from the night before. FERAL. The manager on the day I left did not even say sorry

Only reason I stayed here was because it was convenient for the LaTrobe Uni Open Day. Their own website has glowing guest reports about this motel I also saw the reports on here before I stayed there. I can now add my comments. I have cleaned motel & holiday resort accomodation for over 16 years so I know what is... More

Showers that drain VERYslow so you can only take a short shower or risk flooding floor. Had to run the air conditioner at night to block out the road noise. Burn holes in the blanket. Clean... More

The carpet was stained. There were cigarette burns on the bedspread and carpet, stains on the pillows (i used a towel as a pillow... More

All the other reviewers have already outlined what was wrong with this place. I felt tired and unsafe and left a day early without bothering for a refund, that's how bad it was. It's disgusting to think that the owners don't seem to invest any money in this place. Don't go there.

It was probably the worst Motel I have ever stayed in. Although the rooms were neat and reasonably clean there was hardly any water coming out of the shower heads!! Changed rooms and the same problem occured. I would definately not stay there again.

I don't expect a great deal when I first walk into a motel room apart from good access to basic amenities and a clean room but even I was disappointed with the current state of the Parkside Inn Motel considering the new owners have been in the process of renovating it for ages. The ground floor unit had all the... More

Although they seem to be doing up some rooms this large room was awful! Although there were ashtrays outside the building I was told it was nonsmoking. Could not stay and recieved some refund. The windows were open which is a dead giveaway and the room had a smell which closed up my chest, which upon enquiring about was told... More
