Good budget place to stay with friendly staff. If you want a place to stay overnight, it has what you need. My personal opinion, 9.2/10 star rating is too high for this motel. It is a basic, normal budget motel. When I left my room at 7:15 am on Sunday morning, a random guy in the carpark saw me coming out the room and asked for the code of the room which I just left. He said he is a cleaner for the motel. I said that he should get the code from the boss and he replied that they are not here now. I didn't give it to him but he kept asking for it. He also said to me that he came our of the pub - trying to convince me that he is a cleaner but he didn't have any cleaning equipment nor trolley to collect things. It looked very suspicious. To the owner of the business If he was the real cleaner, it is a very unprofessional thing to do and I felt very intimidated. You should talk to your cleaner stop asking for the code to the customer. If he was a random guy trying to get into the room, you should check about this guy. He could do some damage to your property or to your business.

do not judge a book by its cover as is in this case. situated on the freeway behind a pub we did not expect much and was very pleasantly surprised by the newness and cleanliness of the room. the downside is slow/weak internet and the bed isn’t as comfy. for short stays near footscray & sunshine where we needed to be we were very satisfied.
