What guests think

Parkdale Motor Inn draws mixed feedback: travellers like the convenient location and price, some updated bathrooms and comfortable beds, and the well‑reviewed on‑site Indian restaurant, but recurring issues include traffic noise, dated rooms, maintenance problems, cleanliness lapses, and unhelpful service.

Parking is available but frequently tight or awkward, and access involves stairs with no elevator noted in reviews. Best suited to budget stays if you prioritise location and value over modern finishes.

My room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and the jetted tub/spa was good. Excellent dinner at the "Delhi Club" Indian Restaurant at the same property. Being on a busy intersection, there was traffic noise at certain times. The room interior was dated, but served my purposes.

The bathroom wasn't too bad but could do with a good scub.The kitchen area was dirty & greasy never been cleaned.The outside staircase is open to the elements, so very dirty, three floors no elevators. Would not recommend.

I have previously told you about my experience in that disgusting place. I had pre-paid for three nights, but didn’t even stay one night. Instead, I drove until I found a clean and safe place to sleep. I have taken a dozen or so photos of the rubbish and filth, as well as broken doors and unwashed glasses literally sticking to the tray they were in (hadn’t been washed). I could not even contemplate sleeping there. In fact, I am considering sending my photos to the health department. I would appreciate a phone call from someone at Wotif. You need to have someone inspect the room I was given. The men at Reception couldn’t have cared less when I handed in the key and told them it was the worst place I had ever seen. My phone number is 0407972797.

We booked here for a night while on a quick trip from Adelaide to Melbourne & back. We arrived late but were able to check in at 10pm. The room was clean & the bed comfy but there are things that need to be fixed in the building & rooms. A refurbishment would be ideal. The shower head kept falling down making it hard to have a proper shower. Could not connect to wifi (as no password given) & could not watch tv or Netflix/Stan. Add some hot choc to the tea/coffee selections please. Bed was good & room is a good size. It’s just old & needs some love..

The property is very old and quite scruffy. The shower was fantastic and the bed ok but that's where any good bits end. It sits at a major road intersection and as a result is incredibly noisy 24x7. If you sleep lightly, then you must avoid.

They really need to hire better cleaners. Shelves all dirty, cutlery (what there was - there definitely wasn’t enough for a family of 4) and cups were dirty, floor was dirty, one bed had sand it in. Cobwebs on all the windows. There were no normal glasses so the kids drank from wine glasses. Beds are hard - if you are over 40 you’ll probably hurt. The guy at the front desk was friendly though and helpful. Towels are as thin as they come. The lounge split system only blew cold air but thankfully the one in the bedroom worked well enough.

The check in was ok and the person at reception was extremely helpful. The room is old and needs to be fully cleaned as there were finger prints and hand marks of the wall tiles in the bathroom above and around the toilet, there was no towel provided, I had to use the hand towel and spare washer to dry off after a shower.

The location was good but unfortunately as they lost my reservation the location was pointless. The staff member spent 10-15 minutes trying to locate my booking and even after I showed her my email confirmation, she spent further time on the phone and on the computer then asking me questions, only to then say they cannot find my reservation. I then had to call around other hotels to find somewhere for two nights. Extremely disappointed .

It suited our purpose on this occasion but it is quite run down, the grounds and overall appearance aren't very conducive to a positive opinion and I'm sure would not be appealing to a number of potential guests. However, the room was clean and had all the facilities we required. The welcome at reception was fine. I assume with its location it is not looking to attract visitors or travellers but rather people who need to be located in that area for a short time or are using it as cheaper longer-term accommodation and as short-term visitors who stayed there for proximity to family we took that perspective. I don't think I'd dine there for the reasons mentioned above.

If you want a cheap night's accommodation, it was fine.
