Clifford Gardens Motor Inn

The room was dirty, we had to sweep the floor so our one year old could walk around on the floor, there was food still in the plates that hadn’t been washed properly. Food stains on the doona insert that had no cover and was just between two sheets. Hair shavings on the floor in front of the hand basin and the oven didn’t work in the apartment we booked. Would definitely not stay there again. Use to stay there fairly regularly when I was a child with my parents and even as a young adult and was disappointed to see how much it has declined

Due to the housing crisis a lot of hotels are doubling as emergency accommodation. The owner of this establishment (white Aussie guy) treats the "paying guests" and emergency accommodation people very differently. He is very aggressive, hot headed and doesn't understand respecting a woman's personal space. He leaned over me and I felt his breath on my ear and his body heat on my back 🤢. I said "you're standing way too close" he remained there so I quickly got up and moved; as did he. The next day he sent his henchmen in to inspect my room and surprise surprise it wasn't "clean enough" and I had to leave. The owner of this establishment lords his power over people going through the worst time of their lives and treats us like absolute garbage. Don't get me started on how he treats his poor staff (I think they believe the abuse is normal now- very sad indeed). FYI I'm an established business woman and although it isn't a multi billion dollar company for most of my life I've earned my money, payed my bills and more importantly- PAYED MY TAXES. I'm entitled to get help when necessary and the government are putting hotel owners in charge of people like we are their property. Disgusting system and its being run by right winged nuts that think they're judge, jury and executioner of who "deserves help" and who doesn't. Yuck. DO NOT STAY HERE.

We did not have a very good experience. We had people very loud and drunk. We had vomit marks on the floor. The microwave is broken. Paint is peeling on the inside and dirty walls. Dirty Carpet and dirty marks on doors and walls and the heater broken and smelt disgusting. Fridge was rusted out in some paper like stuff frozen in the freezer bit. And under the sink, there is old water rotted away And to top it off there is mould all over the bathroom roof.
