If you’re looking for a room for the disabled this would be good for you.
Pros:

The property was convenient for me at the time. The bed was high which I liked being a tall man.

Cons:

I didn’t realise I had booked a room that was used for the disabled. Parking then became an issue as I was not disabled and the location didn’t offer additional non disabled parking.
The room itself was like a portable office. There was know where to hang your towel in the bathroom, no shower curtain to stop water going everywhere. It smelt strongly of paint!
I wasn’t impressed being woken at 1.30am by 2 Asian men at the door which I didn’t open but peered at them through a crack in the blinds.

Pros:

Room was big, close to Eastland, did the job for a short stay

Cons:

There was a smell of cigarette smoke in the room that was masked by air freshener or similar and the bath wasn’t very clean - had a ring of dirt around it

Well located motel on Maroondah Highway, Ringwood.
Pros:

A reasonably good size motel room, probably larger than the norm I have experienced. The bed was comfortable. Adequate off street parking, not under cover. Within walking distance of the local rail corridor. Not far from a major shopping centre.

Cons:

Relevant to the room I was assigned - Overgrown vegetation adjacent to the car-parking space made it difficult to alight from and enter my vehicle. I don't remember seeing a microwave oven in the unit/room. The shower was over the bath and could be problematic for some people as it is necessary to step over the side of the bathtub to use the shower.

Facilitated a late check in no worries even when I changed my check in time the day of the booking. Staff were very helpful.

It’s a keeper.
Pros:

No breakfast provided, as advised. Manager engaging and keen to assist. Rooms adequate with excellent facilities and cleaner than we have encountered in the last couple of years.

Cons:

It would be impossible to improve access as fronts straight onto highway.
