We were attracted by its comparatively low room rate, though, in the expense of location. That said, his place was not far from city centre, given that a metro station was just a 15-minute walk away and from there it took another 15-minute metro ride. A very standard motel that you could easily imagine. Nothing much to say apart from... More

We had a superior room for the night whilst we were attending a conference at the same venue. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The only negative I could come up with was that the pillow was too low, but there was a second pillow in the cupboard which fixed that problem, and there was no wine... More

I would say you got what you paid for this hotel. We were there for the cricket, and it was short walk to the train station which was in itself a short journey to Melbourne Cricket Ground. Rooms were clean and breakfast was fine. The town seemed to close early but we found a nice pizza place closing one night... More

We stayed here in January for a shopping trip to Melbourne, hence did not wish to spend alot on our accomodation. Hotel was only about 6 stops to the city and an easy walk to the station from the hotel. The superior rooms were clean and comfortable though its probably more 3 star accomodation overall. The young Events Manager was... More

We stayed 3 nights in a superior room. A good location as it is 5 minutes from a metro station and parking is free. The room was refurbished and pefectly OK if a little basic. The staff were all friendly and exterem;y helpful. We found some excellent local shops in Fairfield nearby.

I stayed here for 10 nights, which i booked through travelsupermarket.com as they were the cheapest. We stayed here when we emmigrated to melbourne whislt we looked at houses to live in. For location it was great. I wanted somewhere between the city (which is a 15mins drive) and where we planned to live. On the front, the motel looks... More

We stayed at Jika for 2 weeks whilst on holiday. We picked it for its close proximity to the city centre, free parking and price. Breakfast is available and included in the price and if you like a fry up, you can have one for $10. Wifi is $10 for 24 hours which is a lot cheaper than internet cafe's!... More

I called the hotel before booking it and said I was booking for my girlfriend's birthday so I would like a nice room with spa etc etc. I don't usually splash out like this, the photos looked nice and it was close by so I thought I'd go for it. We checked in and half the lights in the room... More

Let's start by saying that we are B&B owners ourselves and so are quite critical and probably not the easiest to please. We stayed at this motel for two weeks whilst visitng my family who live in Greensborough. When I first saw it my heart sank but I got a real surprise when we saw the room. I can't pretend... More
