When we arrived, which was early afternoon, there were no staff at the desk, we then waited 15 mins to be checked in. The room certainly needs upgrades...a rusted fridge, mouldy grout in the bathroom/shower. Our room door needed to be slammed to shut. You are simply paying for location with this one.

The street where this motel is located, this is not the fault of APX motel group, it's more to do with the local council and surrounding buildings/restaurants to keep the street to a reasonably clean condition, rental bikes blocking the narrow footpath, cigarette butts all over the place doesn't make for a very appealing welcome to the neighbourhood.

They took $400 holding deposit for 2 rooms, today is 9days since checked out and still haven't received my refund. Contacted them numerous times they said 5 days, this is absolutely ridiculous as it is only a holding bond. Will never stay or recommend this hotel.
