Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Place was clean and tidy and easy parking.
Only downside was the aircon wasn't working to heat room and it was a chilly 4 degrees. The good news was there were lots of blankets and we were warm enough.
The location was good.
Service was terrible.
Reception was not open during regular hours.
Early checkin was flatly denied even after a long drive.
Fridge milk was opened.
Blow flies coming in through a broken air vent were a major pest.
Rooms good size and comfortable. All u need provided

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very unhygienic, pool was not cleaned, There was yellow stains on the bedroom wall and bathroom sink there was lint in the bathroom vent; we had let the staff know that we needed room cleaning and instead of doing so, they didn’t even enter until two days after we asked. Just not clean at all

At check in, I was told my ID was insufficient because they only accepted a driver's licence. I have never driven a car!
Apparently my whole wallet full of ID was not good enough.
I have never encountered this in my whole life and I am not confident they would even permit me to check in during another stay if I were to catch the bus instead of being driven by a family member.
They insisted on using my niece's ID even though she wasn't paying for the stay and was only on the property for 3 nights of my 9 night stay.
My niece also misplaced a necklace of sentimental value during the last couple of days of my stay.
After we returned home and she realised the necklace was lost, she phoned them to ask if anyone had seen it.
The man on the phone was extremely rude, treated her like she was accusing them of stealing (which she wasn't) and did not give her any confidence that they would keep her loss in mind if her necklace should be found.
By contrast, the other motel we stayed in on our journey home when she phoned to mention the lost necklace were kind and reassuring and made my niece feel like if her lost item were found they would contact us.
My actual stay at Ruthven Street Motor Inn was fine.
The room was clean. Housekeeping was done when requested and I didn't lack anything essential.
Some of the fixtures were old but that can be expected in cheap accommodation.
The dispensers were in poor condition.
I probably would not stay again though
Great budget motor inn. Got a free room upgrade. Bed was comfy & room was clean. Had fridge, microwave, toaster & kettle and everything we needed for our stay. Short walk to Hungry Jacks & Subway & guzman y gomez.
Checkin was quick and easy. Room was clean and comfy. Close to a variety of food places. Room was on the road side wasn’t that noisy. Bed could do with a topper on it. Bed hard. Overall stay was good
Booked for an overnight stay prior to surgery.
Friendly hosts.
We had room #14. It was nicely appointed and had a spa bath.
Had a cute little bottle of fresh milk in fridge which sadly is becoming rare.
Close to several eateries...short walk.
We would stay again. Affordably priced.
