Abcot Inn
Sylvania|2.96km from Foreshore Park
Arrived late after being at a competition, we did inform the management of this situation though ! After a checking which took forever and with two tired little kids girls we drove in trying to look for a parking spot as well as our room . They are all dimly lit , near impossible to make our room numbers on the doors . The carpark was full and our spot was taken up by another patron who thought it was fair to take his own parking space as well as ours with his boat ! What spots that were still available we wouldn’t have gotten our car into . Went back up and pressed the intercom for help , to be told that’s not their responsibility they don’t guarantee you a spot ! I was tired and not happy with this response and made that very clear ! What kind of motel takes your money ( overpriced at that ) and doesn’t provide somewhere to park ! It’s not like this motel is conveniently situated with other parking options nearby ! Absolute joke . He then came out walking along the carpark pointing the dud spots he figured we should fit , being either one small enough for a motorcycle or one where they had double parked leaving a half parking spot 🙄 We were finally directed to one way down the end away from our room which had a overgrown garden and trees half over it . My daughter had no choice than to take it , with the manager sarcastically saying good parking . We were all tired and just wanted to shower and get the kids into bed . We then had to get the girls and our luggage out through the back hatch of the car as there was no accessing the doors on either the garden side or the other side which was super close to the next car ! The room was unclean and smelled of smoke 🤢 The bathroom was smelly ( it stunk like septic in there ) it wasn’t clean like it was last attended to by a cleaner when it was built in the 70’s . We all subsequently went without showers that night . Opened the wardrobe to hang a dress to find a cockroach running inside The twin beds were both sagged on the middle . Curtains were filthy and don’t slide to cover the windows , we had to hold them across either side of the window with a chair pinning them there . This motel was a total nightmare and rip off . Needs the health department to come have a good inspection. Would never ever stay there again or recommend it . Would be better off sleeping in the car than here ! As other reviewers have stated we also didn’t expect a 5 star motel but we were expecting a clean place and a parking spot outside our room and certainly no disgusting smell
Excellent
