Avoid if you can (with young children)”

when arrived after 2.30pm, reception when and confirmed our room is ready only few minutes later me to tell them it hasn't been cleaned. there is only open car space, you come late you miss out and have to park outside on the street. room had dirt on the floor, under the beds and vacuumed or mopped. fans, walls, even the utensils had dust, clearly show had not been cleaned for some time. bathroom had bad mould in shower and curtain had not been washed for sometime. both my kids fell sick same evening, avoid this motel if staying with young kids. when asked room not clean & mould in bathroom, they blamed humidity as mould keeps coming back. asked if i could change the room, other room was bigger one so have to pay extra. only toiletries provided were 1 small tube of shampoo ,10 cent soap and 1 small pack of milk for 4 people staying 3 nights. no extra rubbish bags room shown in the photos while booking and room provided are completely different, very deceiving indeed. i couldnt change or find different motel in the last minute, so we had to put up with. location was good near to esplanade and thats the only plus point. we had really bad experience during our stay, most of time you never see anyone in reception or any staff available. don't believe the photos they all are deceiving. NOT worth $200 a night for sure.

No frills but all you need”

Stayed two nights. Location is central but about 1km from the nightlife precinct (restaurants, bars, markets, lagoon etc,) Good water pressure, good off-street parking, nice balcony, but only one bar of wifi in my room. Good cafe across the road. If you need a well-priced, comfortable, basic room and you don't mind a bit of a hike (or short Uber ride) to the main attractions, this is great.

Sheridan City Motel”

Do not book at this place. Photos are no way indicitive of the state of this run down neglected Motel. Flat out being 2 star. Arrived at 7pm after staff had finished for day. Prearranged key in safe . Went to room and key would not open door. Had to wait an hour for staff to attend and let us in. Stairways had a funky disgusting smell. Room looked and had that unclean feeling. Hair on floor. Bathroom tap had come out of sink and flapped around when turning it on. A water pistol had more pressure than the shower. Opened milk carton in fridge. Nil security and anyone came get access to outside rooms. Do not in any circumstances stay here. It is a dump. Pay the extra and stay somewhere decent.

Food smeared on table, chair, benches, linens and walls!”

If you can tolerate very low cleaning standards and no-one at reception after 4.30, you'll be ok here. Food smeared in so many places! One blanket supplied, complete with food attached. Pillows stained. Towels predominantly clean, however. The sheets on the bed had a wrinkle pattern on one side that suggested I might not have been the first to sleep there since it was last changed!. Floor sticky although it appears to have been cleaned this week, as has the bathroom. It's not helped by the fact that the units are old and in need of a refresh , but that was not the problem. The verandahs have pools of dirt that have washed off the walls and rails in the rain (for weeks) I ended up sleeping in my own sleeping bag and cleaning the unit - all benches and floors - with the bathmat as a cloth. I was pretty shocked by this place!

Five night stay”

Stayed for five nights,room was good. beds were comfortable, and the aircon was quiet and cool. wifi was non existent for entire stay.the motel is in desperate need of a renovation, and a refurbishment.the Kiwi lady at reception is lovely.but the young pregnant Aussie girl is inattentive and needs training in customer service. Overall is a good motel to stay if only for one night as it is cheap and close to cbd but no more than that, would recommend as last resort.
