The room was in poor condition. Anything that was broken or required fixing was covered in masking tape or sticky tape. The room was in a grotty condition. Very disappointing stay - will not be back.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was cramped and dark with a most inconvenient way of boiling the kettle - had to put it on the floor to plug it in. Area so small the kettle became an OHS hazard. Carpet was barely clean with bits of detritus visible. Bathroom so so - absolutely nowhere to out clothes or toiletries. Small manned kiosk type office with an employee exuding a care factor of zero. This establishment seriously detracts from the reputation of hotels.com.

Marni

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This was a very frustrating experience. I did not get the message until a day later about how to get into the hotel. I was therefore forced to make an international call to gain access to the building. The room was dirty, broken handles, carpet needs to be replaced, and needs serious repair. The WIFI did not work even though I tried many times on both my computer and my phone. I also would have liked to left my bag for the day after my stay but there was no way to get a hold of anyone unless I wanted to make another International call. I do not recommend staying at the City Square Motel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
While the price was good/cheap ($99) the room itself was not very clean. Dusty and there was some rubbish left in the bathroom sink. The location is excellent. I feel a deep clean was required. The room itself was quite unique being in an older building and could use even a slight upgrade with nice decor would make a difference.

There were no glasses, knife, tea spoon, tea and coffee, were not filled up No tissues. Laundry and ironing facilities were not available . My room was not serviced when I had left the sign out I did end up with a tea spoon and steak knife after making a complaint. The excuse was that they were fully booked. I have stayed there multiple times including only 2 weeks before and I was satisfied with my accommodation. Last trip was terrible

Room was dusty and old, had graffic above the door. Doors in hotels should be fire doors, it was broken. A/C was old and blew directly into the wall, room barely cooled down. Toliet leaked from the bottom if full flush was used. Found two old used qtips by the nightstand. Tv didn't work. Staff were unfriendly. Definitely putting this motel as a don't return.

Liked: Amenities
Bed was comfortable and shower pressure was perfect. Building was without hot water on first night of stay but staff had it fixed by the morning. Superficial structural damage to the carpet and doorframe near bathroom left room feeling run down. TV reception was non-functional. No room service was provided, nor did staff inform if such an option was available. More communication in this regard would be appreciated. Due to the unfortunate timing of events during my stay, room prices were far above what one would consider a fair nightly rate, however, at a lower rate, its a fine budget option for a few nights.

Definitely the second worst mattress and base I’ve ever slept on. Should be sent to landfill immediately. And the room was grotty. Needs a serious deep clean.
