เออร์ลี่ออสเตรเลียน มอเตอร์อินน์

5 stars. Booked this because it was the cheapest room in Mildura on a Saturday night, so naturally I was preparing myself for a mattress like a slab of concrete and a shower that dribbled like an old bloke with prostate issues. Instead, I got a room that was clean, fresh, and very modern for a rural motel. This place is only cheap in dollars, not in amenities. Great value for money and far better than I expected. Didn’t get a chance to use the swimming pool shaped like Australia — missed opportunity on my part. Next time I’m packing the swimmers. Now for my gripe — and there must always be a gripe, just to keep things balanced. Truth be told, they’re hard to find… but if I’m being picky: The location is in town but not quite within easy walking distance to the main drag, which meant I had to keep one eye on my alcohol consumption for the drive home — always a dangerous game in Mildura. Secondly, it’s on the main road. Makes it super easy to find, but there is a bit of road noise at night. Nothing outrageous though — nothing a decent glass (or bottle) of local red couldn’t sort out. Would definitely stay here again.

Everyone was pleasant and helpful. Room was clean and well laid out with small table and chairs. Also a couch.

Too noisy all thru the night due to proximity to road but that’s not management’s fault.
