Location and great little motel lovely receptionist

Peter, Australia

Great Motel, we were attending a Function near by and were very happy with the property. Easy to find, rooms very clean and comfortable with free onsite parking. Would definitely recommend.

Jenny, Australia

The heaters in the room were excellent, the bathroom heater especially appreciated. The position of the hotel was very good for the airport, especially as the rates were much lower than those of the actual airport hotels. Tram stop into the city right outside makes getting into the city very easy.

Claire, Australia

Helpful staff. Proximity to airport. Clean and comfortable.

Pam, Australia

Lovely and helpful receptionist . it was her second shift solo but she was very welcoming and friendly

Danushka, Australia

Staff were very friendly and helpful. This is a budget motel - so don't expect 5 star facilities. Having said that we were very pleased. Clean, comfortable and a great location for our trip.

Alexander Motor Inn is budget accommodation, the asking price is not exorbitant so don’t expect the Ritz and you will not be disappointed. The rooms are a bit tired looking but clean, as is the linen. The twin room and bathroom are a reasonable size, however for two people it would get a bit claustrophobic if here more than a couple of nights. Water was hot and the pressure was good. Tea and coffee are supplied along with bottled water, toaster, ironing board and iron? Tram #59 stops out the front of the inn at stop #42 and it takes around 40 minutes to the centre of the city.

Kristine, Australia

눉Getting out onto the road towards the airport was a bit of a worry in busy traffic, but it's possible to take a left turn and end up back on the main road. There was a lot of traffic noise, but this is inevitable on a main road.
눇The heaters in the room were excellent, the bathroom heater especially appreciated. The position of the hotel was very good for the airport, especially as the rates were much lower than those of the actual airport hotels. Tram stop into the city right outside makes getting into the city very easy.

눉Careless cleaning - spilled drink marks on bedside cabinets. Litter and dust around bedside cabinets. Litter and dust near fridge. Washing machine had accumulated powder. Wifi did not work. Telephone did not work. VERY noisy old-style airconditioner in bedroom - rattled the walls. Noisy fridge. Had to ask for dish detergent and a tea towel.
눇Roomy. Close to tram. Had most of what we needed.

눉Some boofheads decided we'd like to listen to them talking really loudly in the carpark at 6am! When I mentioned it at checkout the staff member was very apologetic. Not the hotels fault - boofheads will be boofheads. Otherwise a great budget motel in a central location.
