Raceways Motel

Arrived at night in the pouring rain & couldn't park directly outside our allocated room as other vehicles obstructed our entry - one vehicle with lights turned on high beam making it even more difficult to see and manoeuvre in the space. Our room PONGED OF CIGARETTE SMOKE! The room itself was shabby ie ripped lace curtain at window; blackout curtains old, dirty & dusty; furnishings likewise; kettle barely working & ONLY ONE cup/mug for tea & coffee (had to request another); no milk or water in fridge & an inadequate supply of tea (again had to request more); only one toilet roll supplied; no iron or ironing board IN ROOM; & only one very small three-quarter size cupboard (with wonky door) to hang clothes in. Complimentary cockroaches greeted us in the bathroom each morning & only ONE pillow supplied for each bed. I kept stubbing my toes on the metal corners of both our double and the spare bed & there was only ONE bedside table. The beds were surprisingly comfortable however & apart from hearing the occasional aircraft fly overhead other outside noise was barely audible & the location pretty central - easy walking distance to most amenities & public transport. I was informed twice (by FRED on enquiring about an 'EXTRA GUEST' CHARGE when we'd BOOKED FOR ONLY TWO) that the per night rate was calculated PER PERSON WITH T SECOND PERSON COSTING AN ADDITIONAL $10 - AN ADDITIONAL $18 WAS CHARGED FOR MY HUSBAND! This stoppover was supposed to be a special birthday treat for him 😪

Not the cleanest and in need of a renovation.

If I cared, Id write something of value

The property was the worst place i have ever stayed it, not clean, facilities were minimal. Everything was patched up, doors had been kicked in and a bodge repair. The fridge was patched up, worked but door was hard to open. No facilities to wash up plates etc The walls and doors were filthy. The whole place needs complete refurbishing from top to bottom. Even the bathroom left a lot to be desired. Even a staff member said the place needed shutting down for poor maintenance, this i totally agree with.

Parking easy

Was like living in a slum. No flyscreens meant getting bitten by mosquitoes. Glass is pool which resulted in my daughter cutting her foot. Paid for 2 beds and got 1. Not family friendly at all. No breakfast. No WiFi password given.

It was terrible. It looked absolutely nothing like what's shown on any website. It was old and dated, dark and dingy with the only venterlation the window in the bathroom with a piece of curtain screwed over, and the door, if you were "happy" to leave that open, and it also smelled awful. The "wardrobe " door was tapped shut, the drawers in the "kitchenette" were screwed shut. There was only one desert spoon, one forlk, one tea spoon, two knives, one dinner plate, one bread and butter plate two bowls, two cups, two saucers, two drinking glasses, two wine glasses and a kettle. I could go on!

Clean room

The rooms smell of smoke and dampness its a very run down motel

THE PROPERTY NEEDS A THOROUGH MAKEOVER. Price SHOULD BE LOWER BASED ON THE CONDITIONS

Nice and close to pubs,restaurants and ferry terminals. Good budget motel

The shops were accessable. Staff were friendly. Room was clean

Bed linen and coverings soiled & dirty. Furniture not clean. Insects appear long term residence of the unit. General maintenance & cleaning not satisfactory. Surprised your organisation has this motel on your website.

Dated dusty carpets with cigarette smoke smell, sub standard bathrooms , cockroaches everywhere.

The room was falling apart, has a terrible smell, is presented poorly, needs desperately to be updated. Light fittings need cleaning / replacing (one was held together with tape) Bathroom window needs replacing Paint in all areas is peeling off. Where repainting has been done it looks like a child did it with overpainting everywhere. Fridge has rust in it. TV has a light that blinds you in the night. Curtains in the rear of the room are offcut pieces of fabric. Tiles in the bathroom are missing and painted over poorly. Bathroom fittings old and worn. Storage drawers falling apart. No flywire screen on the only widow that can be opened (bathroom). Noise at 6 am from someone collecting laundry. Front desk not manned, ring the bell and nothing happens. Ring the phone and get someone who isnt there. Clean up the carpark area, get rid of the old car being stored there.

Very helpful reception. Unit was very tired looking. Daily clean was ok but needs deep clean of furnishings and carpets.

Very old, although clean and tidy, the floor carpet smelt stale, the bedding sheets were clean but with horrible stains and had discoloured dirty old blankets and covers . Also the room stunk of cigarette smoke which affected my eyes and throat terribley.

Average. On arrival have wait.

Near the airport, easy check in and check out, friendly staff, but the room smells a little weird.

Room was nothing like the photos. Insects on benches and even in the microwave. Everything seemed dirty. No bathmat or handtowel. Very noisy during the night directly outside my room. Only nice thing I can say was the staff was nice when I arrived
