Jess
Motel itself was great, Neighbour has music thumping at all hours and was disrespectful when asked to turn it down for other families
Colin
The bulding is probably old enough to be a heritage item, but it was very clean and well looked-after.
Peter
No heating and poor hot water when temperature was under 10 degrees
Verified traveler
Only stay if you are desperate
Won’t stay here again. Thin sheets, damaged mattress, stained carpet, bent spoons, black hairs on bed, food remnants stuck under bench. Obviously not cleaned properly nor any pride taken in the presentation of the rooms. It’s robbery to charge $160 per night.
Daryl
Motel decor is very dated, but room was clean, easy parking and in a great location for Brunswick, Sydney road shops and bars.
Thomas
Very comfortable. Excellent value. Walking to trams
Akiko
There is no hair dryer, a wine glass was cracked and the bathroom was really dirty.
Benjamin
It was an excellent place to stay. Transport using the train into the city for New Year’s Eve. Then getting the train back & walking to the motel where I was staying. One suggestion would be if they could provide face washes with the towels & bath mat.

Geoffrey
Very basic older property but well located and convenient to Sydney Road and hospitals.
Wayne
Clean and comfy, close to everything.
Binod
Was charge $50 dollars and had no hot water ruining. Not happy .
Andrew
The property is 3 star at best maybe 2.5 stars. Its very old and tired. Area is convenient but its doesnt feel the safest area to be around.
Steven
Property is showing its age but is very clean and neat. Great location with easy tram access to the city.
Scott
It was nice and quiet, close to public transport and 10 minutes from the Royal Exhibition Centre where I was attending a conference.
Srinivasa Rao
TV remote didn't work as batteries were dead.
I am suspecting my credit details were leaked to scammers from there !! Very unpleasant stay and disappointed.

Shaun
Older style property with basic facilities, but I found it to be clean, quiet and very comfortable. I’d definitely stay here again.
Jo
Great pillows! Quiet. Conveniently located near shops.
Found it easier to reverse park into car parking spaces so that I didnt have to reverse out of the carpark.

Evan
This motel has an excellent location for someone visiting Melbourne, but who doesn't want to drive in the CBD. A short walk gets you to 2 different tram lines or a train station; this gets you anywhere in the city (and beyond).
Around the motel, Brunswick has a variety of restaurants, and the Melbourne Zoo is just 1 tram stop away.

The Parkville Motel is very convenient to everything Melbourne has to offer and provides a great option for a short stay in Melbourne.
Neville
Our room was clean and comfortable with free self parking at our door. Staff friendly and would stay again with no hesitation.
Peter
The Manager of this property has the best customer service skills I have ever encountered. She was extremely flexible in allowing me to add an extra nights accom at late notice, provided excellent advice on nearby eating options and was very friendly with “can do attitude”. Thank you for providing a great holiday experience.
Kevin
Served it’s purpose would stay there again
Jerome
Close to tram, train and Sydney Road.
Noisy - road traffic from about 6.30am and the walls between the units were thin.
Clean unit, good shower, nice staff.
Limited facilities: tea & coffee, toaster, micorwave but only cups and saucers so toast was on a saucer.

Great all round but it was better for us as close RMH 35 MIN walk to RM HOSPITAL
glenn
Have stayed here multiple times. Value for money and just a short walk to the venues on Sydney road. Shout out to the lady managing the hotel.
Stephanie
This was a great place to stay, the room was clean and the staff were amazing. Only a couple of very small things, the mattress was quite hard and the windows in the room aren’t all covered so it doesn’t get totally dark at night. But it was well worth the stay and would stay again! Thank you.
William
It was very good value for the price I paid spacious and clean, would stay again
Sarah
Nice place to return to

Vicki

Wayne
Friendly and very affordable, suited fine.
Denis
The toilet seat in room 30 would not stay in the up position. Cutlery provided but no plates. Ate cornflakes from a mug.
Shane
Was only in area one night, it had all I needed, bed was comfy, shower worked well, what more could I want
Jan
Convenience to where we needed to be for 6 nights. The bed was very uncomfortable - had extreme lower back pain each morning
Tracy
First walked in and it smelt like mothballs, bed was like a rock. Found a bug in the bed. Aircon nearly rattled out of the window.
Anthony
Offf street parking and free and close to zoo and tram
Elisabeth
Very friendly and helpful reception. Quirt location with easy access and parking. would stay again.
Sarah
It is an old motel that is suitable to stay in as it is clean. A very convenient area in relation to shops, public transport and freeways.
Suzanne
Clean and convenient
Warren
It's a bit outdated, which is what I like, not trying to update all the time to try and impress people. Clean property and room, nice and and friendly staff.
Alannah
Upon booking the room we were given the price, when checking in we were told that the booking price is based on 2 people using 1 bed in a family room (there was 5 of us & we booked it with all 5 of us in the one room). We’d have to pay an additional $20 per person to use the other beds in our room, the air con barely worked, the bathroom smelt like bleach, bedding was absolutely uncomfortable when wanting to checkout & leave & get a refund for being there for an hour we were told no but we could use the other beds free of charge. I do not recommend.
Ngaire
Property is old but you get what you pay for . Place was clean and tidy, nice big towels. Bed was comfortable
Dianne
Very clean but rooms outdated. Blankets were old and worn. Otherwise ok.
Anthony
Exactly what I’d bargained for
Louise
Dirty mattress dumped out front of hotel. Lock on door faulty & needed replacing. Room smelled like it had been doused in a vat of bleach. Food left in fridge from previous guest.
Lea
Staff very helpful and location
Betty
Property is outdated and basic but served our needs for our trip
Kim Dzung
happy as living in motel but if manager put more effort in maintenance it would be perfect
Elizabeth
All good. Great location.
Noelene
Room was very dated, no milk for tea/coffee (although that was supplied)
Jason
The room we were given was facing directly on the sun in the afternoon. The summer was really really unbearable in the day.
denis
Ok for needs
Grant
Quirky old school / retro nostalgic motor inn that looks like a film set
Andrew
The room was adequate. The car park directly outside the room is filthy. It is a disgrace. Overflowing dumpmaster bins. 100's of cigarette butts on the ground. Empty paint cans everywhere. Have some pride in the business you own & clean the place up. If you stay here, make sure you do not leave valuables in the car and keep it locked at all times.Not a place for families with young children.
Tracey
Great location, basic and clean. Perfect place to use if you just need somewhere to sleep. The man that checked me in was really nice and friendly.
Jeanette
Very clean and quiet. Everything you need for budget short stay. Pillows a bit hard and lumpy. Coffee undrinkable. But I would stay here again.
