Pros:

Very ran down property, we booked this because it was close to where we had to be and it had a pool, water in the pool was green, pool was unable to be used because of this, everything is just old, sticky tape holding one of the beds together, A/C leaked water and had to be turned off, smoke alarm was hanging out of the roof, toilet leaked water. Like I said it’s a very ran down and very poorly maintained property. We’ve stayed in some ordinary places and I’ve never felt the need to write a review like this. We wouldn’t stay here again.

Absolutely disgusting and unkept and unclean.
Pros:

Absolutely disgusting. DO NOT STAY. Had a smell to the room when entered. Mould in the shower with broken tiles and dripped. Microwave dirty. Fridge seal broken and wouldn’t close properly. Tiled carpet Flooring had what looked like mould and wasn’t stuck down in places. Plaster ripped off the walls in places. Door had been patched around the handle lock and didn’t look safe. Was only in the room for about an hour before I cancelled and moved to another hotel.

* shower screen sags so not closing properly,
* Shower screen cracked, repaired with tape,
* Couldn"t get heat from the air con (our fUlt?),
* TV doesn't show chanels 2, 20. 22 etc,

But we had a happy time there!

Give it a miss
Pros:

Unkept poorly maintained, broken soap holder, broken jug, terrible parking , police in attendance twice to either some guests or the alleged homeless people sharing the property.
The only reason we stayed was it was 2 streets away from my aunty who was having her 100th birthday.

Pros:

An absolute flea put … dirty , smelly … a dead bird floating in the pool was the nicest thing about the Greensborough comfort inn.

the kind of place you would commit suicide in or want to if you didn’t have a bridge you could jump off nearby.

A disgrace !

You would need to be on heroin to stay, which is ok cause you could probably buy heroin from the person in the room next door.

Couldn’t stay the night and keep my self respect.

Yuk

Horrific
Pros:

Gave 1 star because I can’t rate it a 0!! The most disgusting motel I have ever stayed in my life. The room smelt putrid, dirty, old furniture, no plates or cutlery. Heating was bad we were cold, smelly blankets. There was constant water dripping all night from the spa bath also had to wear ear plugs.we didn’t even shower and left at 7am because I had to go home and clean myself. I’d rather sleep in my car and will definitely never be going back

Pros:

No one in reception when we arrived within office hours. Rang mobile no one answered. Carpet was absolutely disgusting. Shower recess had so much mould. Heating system was so old did not work well
Bed linen was okay but bed hard as on wooden base. Fellow was very abrupt and went close to being rude. Please know I would not complain usually but this was over the top. Being a Comfort Inn was expecting a lot more definitely would not stay there again.

Pros:

The carpet was stained, there was severe mould on the ceiling of the large bathroom, and there was not hot water on the morning when we woke up.
We had already booked in for a second night and had been charged, to which we never received a refund even though the managers expected there to not be any hot water for that day. Very disappointed

DISGRACEFUL.
Pros:

Myself and my partner had an appt and decided to stay here as the photos online looked okay and it was close to where we needed to go. The first problem started when we couldn’t even see the hotel from the road, the grass was overgrown, bushes covering the signage and no lights whatsoever. We were told to check the room before we paid which was fine, we checked and it definitely wasn’t too bad nor the best but we decided for one night it should be okay. After going out of dinner and coming back we properly inspected the room and we noticed all the hair on the floor in the bathroom and in the shower, mould on the bathroom roof, the room smelt, really outdated, furniture was falling apart, the whole room was just disgraceful really. $150 was a rip off for what they were offering. After noticing the hair in the bathroom, I thought to check the bed and to my surprise there was HAIR again under the sheets and that was enough for us to speak to the guy at reception, get a full REFUND and get the hell out of there. He wasn’t going to give us a refund and when we told him to have a look at what we found he said “it doesn’t matter, I’ll just put the doona back on” implying that he didn’t care and wouldn’t clean the bed free of hair and would just put the sheets back on to cover it. Absolutely disgusting. How they are still in business is beyond me. Will NEVER recommend here and will make sure everyone knows not to waste their money.
